Vintage Soda Lip Balms

Vacation's SPF 30 Lip Balm Launched in a Wild Cherry Pepsi Variety

Vacation's SPF 30 Lip Balm Sunscreen is beloved for providing protection and a sensory escape with fruity throwback flavors like Bananas Foster, Strawberry Jello Salad and Pineapple Upside-Down Cake, and Wild Cherry Pepsi is a new, universally flattering tint with a Vintage Pepsi Wild Cherry-inspired design.

Packed with skin-caring hyaluronic acid, peptides and Vitamin E, this protective, vegan-friendly lip balm features a Cherry Cola Super Blend of cherry seed oil, kola nut, and caffeine within a high-gloss gel texture that imparts a sheer, subtle wash of color.
