Sweeten Your Lips for Valentine’s Day from Le Couvent des Minimes!

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner and the cold weather still pressing on, how about a gift for your lips? Le Couvent des Minimes offers natural lip treatments that guarantee dramatically softer lips in flavors and scents that will be sure to please your Valentine. {Products provided for feature consideration}

Smile Lip Balm ($11 each, Ulta): These softening, nourishing balms come in deliciously scented Pear, Orange Blossom, and Mint flavors for a romantic treat that makes every kiss even more enchanting. With natural ingredients such as rich and deeply moisturizing Shea Butter, protective Apricot Seed Oil, and softening Marshmallow Extract, each Smile Lip Balm leaves lips conditioned and irresistible.

Smile Lip Balm Honey, Rich Formula ($13.50, Ulta): I read an interview with the gorgeous Salma Hayek, where she revealed that she coated her lips in honey the night before she thought she was going to be receiving her first kiss. Apparently, she didn't fair so well that evening {something to do with ants, oh my!}, but she would've gotten the sweet effect she was seeking, without the mess with this balm! Give a gift as sweet as honey with the extra repairing and nourishing version of the beloved Smile Lip Balm. The indulgent balm comes in a petit pot and features softening and nutrient-rich Honey Extract, Shea Butter, Beeswax, and reparative Royal Jelly.

I love both of these balms, but the Rich Formula is by far my fave, between the sweet honey taste, the silky texture, and how smooth it leaves my lips - it's a definite must have for me!  What's your favorite lip balm and why? My inquiring mind wants to know! Leave a comment below and let me know what you think. Until next time...
