You Gotta Try This - Yankee Candle Flavored Lip Balm

I went in to a Yankee Candle store down in Kansas City last month just to smell their fall candles. Nothing gets me in the mood more for fall than their Autumn Leaves scent. I like a lot of others too but that one just smells so darn good! Anyway, as I was checking out I noticed three large glass jars with what looked like miniature jar candles. One of the glass jars was completely empty and the other two were well on their way. The clerk explained to me that their store was a "test store" and that Yankee wasn't yet selling these everywhere. She said that they were flying out the door. I snatched one up for $2.99. They must have done well at all of the test stores because you can now buy them online. Just click here. I only had two choices: Buttercream and Vanilla Lime. I chose Buttercream because the other had a funky smell. I would love to try the Sweet Strawberry or Vanilla Cupcake. In case you are wondering it doesn't leave a bad taste in your mouth. In fact, there isn't really a taste at all even though they claim that you can "indulge your taste for great Yankee fragrance ... literally". Besides having a great smell it is just so darn cute in it's littler jar-shaped container.

Hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday. God bless you!
Hugs, Anna

Hi Anna!
I really like the Yankee candle scents so I just might order one of the lip gloss just to be able to smell it no matter where I am.
LOL!
Thanks for sharing. Have a great week.
Lois!

I love their buttercream candle smell. Unfortunately if I got one G would want to use it all the time!

Really? Why do I find this weird?

You know, initially I thought it was weird to. Kinda the whole wax, fragrance thing on my lips. But once I tried it I was sold. It doesn't have any weird flavor and it is really smooth and it smells really nice. :o)
