Hi all,
Today is my full post on the Epic Blend lip balms. I also currently have a give away happening featuring Epic Blend, there is two prize packs that include 6 lip balms in each in assorted flavours.
So who is Epic Blend????
Epic Blend was founded in 2007 in beautiful Kelowna British Columbia, Canada. They design and produce top-quality lip balm, made with as quoted "Top-Shelf" natural ingredients and without harsh synthetics.
The reason Epic Blend decided to venture into the business of lip balms is because they discovered what was really going into to such products (which can be startling that we even want to put such things on our lips or anywhere for that matter) and wanted to not only produce quality products they themselves could use, but also offer it to you the consumers. So Epic Blend was born out of a love of natural things as well as necessity.
Epic Blend is reaching a wide customer base now and is being sold in hundreds of premium retailers across Canada.
So if your active, socially aware, environmentally supportive, fashionably savvy, or you just love lip balms, then Epic Blend might be for you.
Now on to the balms. They are broken up into three primary groups which are Hemp, More Moisture & Vegan.
The flavours available in the hemp line are as follows starting from top
Chocolate Rum (Limited Edition)
Banana (Limited Edition)
Coconut
Citrus Kick
Mint
Vanilla
In the More Moisture line from top is
Unflavoured
Cherry
Grape
Green Apple
and two Vegan offerings are L2R-Wild Berry & Pineapple Mint
Here is what is in these balms
HEMP- Organic hemp seed oil is a great anti-oxidant, super nourishing and quickly recovers skin cells deep in the tissue.
VEGAN- 100% plant-based and beeswax free. The food grade candelilla wax gives this balm its smooth texture.
MORE MOISTURE- Seven moistures including Organic Shea butter work together to give your lips that much needed added moisture, plus a little extra staying power.
All lip balms are gluten free, non-gmo, all natural & NO ANIMAL TESTING
So what do I personally think of these lip balms?? Well I have tried all the flavours and I have some that I feel are excellent, good, ok and just out right don't like.
Excellent- I give it to the hemp coconut and the vanilla- I like the smell, the taste and the overall ability to soothe my lips. Also the Vegan Wild Berry
GOOD- Hemp chocolate rum & Banana, also the more moisture Cherry. Chocolate again is one of those smells and flavours that if not tackled correctly can be a little off putting, that is why to date I still love my ultimate favourite Chocolate Mint from a different brand. I also don't sense any rum essence of any kind with this particular scent. The Banana is good but I wish the Banana was a little more intense. It reminds me of banana milk on the go. The cherry flavour is a lot like Cherry Chapstick brand.
OK- Hemp citrus kick, grape more moisture and vegan pineapple-mint. Both the citrus kick and pineapple mint have taken some getting use to. It is funny how the pineapple mint does grow on you after you use it several times. The grape reminds me of those scented stickers from when I was a kid.
DO NOT LIKE- A lot of people love green apple scented things and sour green apple candy etc. I happen to be one of the people that doesn't. I also find this particular flavour has an odd undertone when I taste it on my lips, but that could just be matter of personal preference.
All the lip balms do a decent job of moisturizing the lips and some flavours are better then others. I have never actually seen these at a store near me, so it has been fun to experience this brand. Also if you don't want the hassle of finding a flavour you like you can still get the benefits of what the balms will do for your lips by purchasing the unflavoured if that's what you prefer.
So that concludes my post on Epic Blend and I hope that you all have entered this giveaway
