From TonyMoly's new Minions collection, Strawberry Banana Lip Balm. "Don't be fooled by the cute packaging! This limited edition deliciously scented lip balm smells like a freshly blended strawberry banana smoothie while providing nutrition and deep moisture to treat dry and fatigued lips. Adorably pocket-sized, this balm features an exclusive Minions charm and key chain..." $12, and the matching hand milk is $10 for 45 ml.
A cheaper alternative to yesterday's lemming: Mongo Kiss Banana Lip Balm from Eco Lips. "Made from organic Mongongo oil from Africa and organic Fair Trade Certified cocoa butter, this ultra hydrating balm provides essential nutrients for your lips. Mongongo oil is high in polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are known to remain on the skin longer than saturated fatty acids (like coconut oil) or monounsaturated oils (like jojoba oil), so you know your lips are protected all day. With hints of caramel, cinnamon and dark rum, Banana Mongo Kiss is a blissfully tropical treat for your lips." $2.79.
Paradise does not come cheap. Jamaica ("Inspired by a trip to Jamaica, this balm smells just like bananas. It has a smooth gel texture and is infused with hydrating Shea Butter and Olive Oil.") and Mykonos ("This 'Mykonos' lip balm smells like watermelon, and it’s infused with Shea Butter and Olive Oil to keep your pout moisturized.") lip balms from Le Paradis are $24 for 12 ml at Net-A-Porter.
A summer fruit cheap thrill: EOS lip balms in pineapple passionfruit and coconut milk. One is a stick and and one is a sphere; your guess is as good as mine. "Our creamy and exotic Coconut Milk flavor tastes like tropical papaya and coconut to bring on those beach vacation vibes. Our tart and tropical Pineapple Passionfruit flavor tastes like a fresh and fruity island colada." $4.49 at EOS.
Tinted Dinoplatz lip balms from Too Cool for School. The reviews say they smell good, although what they might smell like is a mystery — I was mostly taken by the artwork on the tins. About $15.
