Tweens can be a hard age group to shop for. You want to give them a gift that’s fun, but not too “childish”. Tween girls often love fashion and beauty, but they might not be old enough to wear loads of makeup yet – so I have the perfect solution for you! Softlips make fun, flavored lip balm that is pampering and appropriate for all ages. And one lucky Contest Corner reader will win a set of the new Softlips Winter flavors, so read on!
About Softlips:
Here’s a little info that Softlips sent me about their new flavors:
“This winter don’t let the cold air damage your lips. Prepare your pucker for the mistletoe with the new limited editions flavors of Softlips® lip conditioners– new Sugar & Spice and Sugar Plum Berry as well as Winter Mint and Sugar Cookie.
Perfect as a stocking stuffer or gift to yourself, the seasonal flavors help protect lips from the sun with SPF 20 and have the same great moisturizing properties as Softlips’ other popular flavors. Each winter flavor comes paired with a complimentary Softlips® favorite lip balm:
New in 2009! Softlips® Sugar & Spice
New in 2009! Softlips® Sugar Plum Berry
Softlips® Winter Mint
Softlips® Sugar Cookie
For a suggested retail price of $2.99 to $3.99 for the dual-stick pack. Now through out the holiday/winter season, the limited addition flavors Sugar & Spice and Sugar Plum Berry will be available in Target and Winter Mint and Sugar Cookie will be available at Walgreens.
Stay up to date on the latest from Softlips by fanning them on Facebook.“
My Take:
My lips get extremely dry and chapped, so I always keep something on them. During the day, I wear moisturizing lipstick or lipgloss; after I take my makeup off at night, I switch to lip balm. I always have a tube (or three) of lip balm sitting on my desk, and Softlips is one of my favorites. So when they asked if I’d like to try the new holiday balms, of course I said yes! I am a sucker for anything with festive flavors – I love pumpkin lattes and peppermint coffee creamer! – so I love that they have released these seasonal lip balms. I really enjoy using the yummy flavors (sugar cookie, anyone?!). It’s so seasonal and fun!
I think these would make an excellent stocking stuffer for any tween girl on your list – the packaging is fun and sparkly, and a nice set of lip balms will appeal to any girlie girl!
