In order to give consumers plenty of options for stocking stuffers this Christmas, Lip Smacker has been steadily releasing a range of uniquely themed products that appeal to fans of various different franchises, with its latest being a Princess Leia lip balm.
Like in the 'Star Wars' films, the Princess Leia lip balm is outfitted with the character's iconic hairstyle, with two buns on either side of her head. The cartoonish look of the product means that the character's head takes over the majority of the package, with her body marked by a white base.
In order to reflect character's unique hairstyle, Lip Smackers infuses the nourishing product with the taste of a cinnamon bun.
