Today brings a quick post to recommend the Alba Botanica Alba Home Spa Kit, which comes with a great Alba Hawaiian lip balm. The kit itself has some good products and is quite fun. I imagine that it would make a great gift. But in particular, as long as you are not adverse to the fragrance or taste of coconut, the Alba Lip Balm that comes with this kit is amazing. The balm is made with all vegetarian ingredients and does not not contain petrolatum. It has a nice moisturizing feel that lasts for quite awhile. I really love this lip balm! I have seen the balm occasionally sold outside of the kit at CVS in a couple of different flavors, or you can find it through the link above.
The downside of the balm is that it does not have SPF. When it comes to lip balms with SPF, I also can’t rave enough about my all time favorite Banana Boat Aloe Vera with Vitamin E Sunscreen Lip Balm, SPF 45.

just bought the lip balm — LOVE it.
would love to try it! packaging kinda reminds me of Burts Bees wax, no?
It does have a bit of a Burt’s Bees look to it. The lip balm has a similar consistency to Burt’s Bees as well (another balm that I love), but a different flavor with the coconut.

[...] a few other balms. Neutrogena Lip Moisturizer SPF 15 is a good standard lip balm, but I like my Alba and Banana Boat balms (link is to previous review) better because they don’t require reapplication as often. [...]
