Stewart & Claire Old Fashioned Lip Balm
This classic, smoky cocktail has been around since, eh, forever, but in lip balm form, well that’s a newfangled idea. Infused with cedar wood, bitter orange and vanilla, this tube offers up an approximation of the drink.

Founders Brewing Hop Infused Lip Balms
What happens when a brewery decides to get into the grooming business? They spike a trio of lip balms with the same ingredients used in the beer. All Day IPA is loaded with hops, Breakfast Stout enriched with coffee, chocolate and hop oil, and Rubaeus contains raspberry essential oils.

Gin is the essential ingredient in some of our favorite cocktails—martinis, Negronis, French 75s. It’s the juniper berry that really makes it special and also what you will taste in this tiny tin of coconut- and jojoba-oil packed balm.
