For Christmas 2011 I’ll be doing gift recommendations every day – stuff that I genuinely think are good value and make unusual, lovely gifts! Keep an eye out for a chance to win the gift recommendation of the day too!
There is a RECESSION going on people, so it’s the perfect time to pick up sweet little gifts for people rather than taking out a second mortgage for an iPad that your Nan is only going to mistake for a placemat anyway.
Today is ChapStick’s Limited Edition Tempting Lips range:
I LOVE the retro case. There are 7 designs to choose from and each one has three lip balms inside, in Cherry, Apple and Strawberry. Unfortunately they aren’t tinted, just scented and the formulas are the same.
Obviously after you have used the lip balms, or my case, lost them all, the tin can be used for keeping nick-nacks in. I like!
There’s a sticky label on the back which was semi-difficult to remove but then came off in the end – otherwise I would be might peed off that it ruined the tin. But you’ll be happy to know the tin was saved!
The ingredients; it’s not organic or anything but I know plenty of people who swear by Chapstick:
Hey did you ever know anyone who ate chapstick? I knew a girl at school who would eat a whole stick. Yeah…special school it was.
Here are the other designs:
Really cute – and useful in the winter!
I would gift this. I love the tin with polka dots one. Very cute!

I have to admit I love the tins more than the chapstick themselves! I always find that I get a funny aftertaste with chapsticks (not from eating them!)
This is so adorable!!!!
The set looks really nice
Cute! And slightly Cath Kidston-inspired donchathink?
Has anyone found an official stockist of these yet? They are also in this month’s Cosmo but cannot find online, on Boots or Superdrug website? Are they very new?
Thanks
OH my gosh those are so cute! I want them and you are right, perfect stalking stuffers!
