I got a lip balm order a few weeks back, just in time for my birthday, and I am so incredibly happy with it. *grins*

http://www.saskya.com/lipbalm/ is the site I ordered from (okay, I actually ordered from saskya directly before the site was up...), and OMG! I love this stuff! In particular, I ordered a tube of Peach Clove that I absolutely adore. It's fruity-spicy, not too strong, but not too weak, a nice, soothing consistancy on the lips and not sticky or greasy feeling, and it doesn't *taste* bad (which some do, when they have odd scents). This is so my flavor - if I were to ever design a signature scent, this would be it.

Check out the site, you can mix and match various flavors, and I was super impressed by the speed and service. I also got Sage Honey, which is a wonderful not-too-sweet smell, and clove, and Chai tea, which are exactly as they sound - the chai tea is quite mellow and delicious. She also tucked in Herbal Mint for me, which is as good as brushing teeth for a quick pick-me-up smell, and candy kisses, which is much sweeter (and Jake says he won't kiss me if I wear it, so that will be a daytime gloss while he's at work...).

She's got some new flavors in I want to try, too: watermelon and raspberry lemonade, in particular! I wonder if watermelon would go with clove? Maybe pearberry clove... Mm...

oh man! I really didn't need another obsession but Raspberry lemonade sounds right up my alley!

Are they more of a gloss (like roll-on) or a stick/pot (like chapstick or burts bees)?

Hmm, that sounds PERFECT. I've ordered a few and will see what I like. Thanks for the reccomendation, I love finding little out of the way things like this to try.

Oh, Peach Clove sounds divine!!! She has Eucalyptus, too, which I love...I'd mix that with lavender or tea tree. Hmmmm...I might have to order a couple. Thanks for the link! ^_^

*giggles* That is so charming, you obsessed with lipgloss/chapstick. :D Right now I have a tube that was burts bees that I filled with some other lip stuff that was in ont of those jars. It's tingly! I like tingly lip stuff. I never understood the little jar thing, sure it is cute, but you have to stick your icky finger into it to get any out. I was using my pinky finger nail, for some reason I kept feeling like I was doing snuff (or something).

THANK YOU for the plug. I can't tell you how much i appreciate it, as well as your glowing review. You have thrilled me in the best way possible (ok ok, maybe the second best...) and oh yes, i thank you for it.
