Organic Essence

 Lip Balm by Organic Essence ($4.99 each)
Almond & Grapefruit
I love how Organic Essence has completely biodegradable packaging for most of their skincare products.  They're on the pricier side but I was really curious about the lip balm tube so I decided to purchase a few (I purchased a Mint flavor but I let my mom have it, hehe).

 The tube is made completely of paper and printed with soy-based ink.  It feels durable and the cap actually stays on pretty well.  The interior of the tube seems to be lined with something waxy, so the paper doesn't get greasy from the balm =).

 Burts Bee 0.15oz/4.25g
Organic Essence 0.21oz/6g

Compared to my Burt's Bees, the texture and consistency of the balm is pretty similar.  I've only tried the grapefruit and I love it~

Pocky on my bed sneering :x...stuffed animals cowering in the corner of my bed.

Hey there stranger ;)

Haven't seen you around for awhile! I missed you and Pocky!

It's so great seeing that she is still just as cute as ever!

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and a great new year! Happy Belated New Year from Larry and I!

PS. Those organic lip balms are the cutest things I've ever seen! I have a soft spot for things in paper packaging :D

Hope to see more of you in 2011!
:D
Say HI to Pocky for me! Better yet, give her a big ear rub for me! ;)
