Softlips Review and Giveaway!


Softlips has recently re designed their packaging to include fresh new graphics and a new logo.  Softlips lip balm is still available in the same signature slender sticks, and their light flavors and formulas will remain the same, but they decided it was a time for a change and updated their packing with eye-catching graphics and a bold new logo.  Clean, simple, and balanced, with vibrant fields of color that POP! 

As a fan of Softlips on Facebook, I remember recently being asked for feedback on their packaging.  I love it when companies ask their fans for input and really put weight into what they say.  Are you a fan of the Softlips Facebook page? Connect with the brand on Facebook to keep up to date on new flavor announcements and Facebook giveaway offers! 

What do you think of the new Softlips packaging?  Have you already seen them in a store near you?


 When did you first try Softlips?  I first discovered Softlips when I was in high school.  They were all the rage and when I saw them in the store at the checkout lane one day, I had to try them for myself.  With their affordable price of $2.79 for individual sticks, to $3.99 for the special value dual packs (which are always my choice), I was easily able to purchase with my income at the time, and I have been hooked on Softlips ever since. It goes on so smooth and I love the hint of gloss it provides.  I usually stick with their classic Vanilla, but I was very excited to be given the opportunity to try some of the other flavors as well.  I was sent a selection which I decided to share with my mom.  We were sent Cherry, Vanilla, Raspberry with green tea extract, Mint with a hint of Vanilla, Wildberry, and Strawberry.  The sleek new packaging was so new at the time, it was not yet available so we received the classic, old packing of Softlips, but rest assured that the same great flavors and perfect formula will be available in the new packing.  I am loving the Mint with a hint of Vanilla.  It's a nice change from my usual plain Vanilla.  I really like the Strawberry as well.  I just learned that Softlips has a great Beach 5-pack available on their website, that includes a Coconut Cream!  I *need* it!  You all know how much I love coconut!  :o)

Softlips products combine fantastically effective lip protection with SPF 20 and moisturizing emollients, with a hint of sheer glossing effect.  They are perfect for natural lips or for adding protection/moisturizing over or under lipstick. They offer a wide range of products, from Therapeutic Lip Conditioners, to their popular Lip Balm flavors (also available in Seasonal flavors and Tinted balms) as well as their PURE 100% Natural Organic Lip Balm Flavors, Tinted Lip Balms and Glosses and Specialty Lip Products.  Softlips is a trusted name in lip health and has been a product of choice among young women for more than 20 years.  Currently, Softlips is available in the lip care section of the cough/cold aisles of food, retail and drug stores nationwide, including ULTA stores nationwide.  Currently if you purchase a Best Of pack on the Softlips website, you can get free shipping!  This promotion is going on through June 19th.  The Beach Pack is calling my name!  They even accept PayPal!
