Twist & Pout a new way to look at lipbalms

Hi everyone,

So back about a month and a half ago I had won a giveaway from MaskerAide sheet masks with some fun and helpful beauty goodies, you can read my MaskerAide review here.
Any way in my gift pack was a super cute sphere keychain adorned with a charm and fun pattern on the sphere itself. Then you untwist it to discover it houses the most perfect little pot of Vanilla lipbalm. I should add that at this time Twist & Pout only have the Vanilla & Citrus Honey shimmer lipbalm. So i wanted to know more about the company and I looked them up on line to discover this whole new concept for lipbalm's and the collections are amazing. So after communications with Twist & Pout they sent me a few different designs to review.

Before we get into it, here is the low down on Twist & Pout as a company
This is from their website

"Twist & Pout is a one-of-a-kind, impulse lip product that is equal parts fashion statement and lip protection confection.  At Twist & Pout, we strive to bring fashion and fun to everyday life. It’s as simple as that. Our lip moisturizers combine high quality, natural ingredients with classic AND cutting edge designs. (You mean you can have both? Yes…you sure can.) Made in the Denver, CO right her in the USA, our commitment is to create lip balms that allow fashion and function to commingle. What more could a girl ask for?."

So now lets get to the fun part and have a look at these delightful girly lip balms

The first one that originally came in my MaskerAide gift pack is called "Tickled Pink" which has a pearly bubble gum pink background followed up with a fun feather pattern with colours of black, white, peachy pink and silver. 

This particular one came with a standard silver tone twist & Pout band that holds your lip balm sphere and has a good sturdy toggle clip that you can hang off your favourite handbag, keys, luggage, gymbag, rearview mirror decor (only after you have used up the lip balm for this last one)

So as mentioned this one is Vanilla flavour, and here are the ingredients-

Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil , Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii(Shea Butter), Punica Granatum Sterols, Beeswax, Flavor, Tocopherol, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Water, Sucralose, Sorbitan Oleate.

Now the next four designs are from two separate collections, all these lipbalm's came in the Citrus Honey Shimmer and just so you know you can actually buy lipbalm refills so you can keep reusing your Twist & Pout spheres for years to come.

The first two are from the Romantic Nature collection and they are Bloom Lagoon and Just Say Zen

Bloom Lagoon-has a very pretty motif of tropical foliage in bright and dark contrasting aquatic shades of blue. This is one of my faves.

Just Say Zen-This is a light grey background with a gorgeous white paisley intricate design and of course the beautiful black and pink cherry blossom design that i just adore

The next two came from the Twisted Fashion collection and they are Feather Forecast and French Twist

Feather Forecast- Is just that,  it looks like the peacock feathers are just cascading all over the sphere and draping themselves around it.

 French Twist- Is honestly the most fashionable girly-girl accessory with its perfectly pink, black and white Parisian theme with an ever so small gold heart over the silhouette of a girl with a high ponytail in true french fashion, other details include a small dog, perfume bottle, boutique, a very chic wide brim hat and of course the iconic Eiffel Tower that makes every girl imagine the most romantic place in the world. I really think this is a fashionista's must have.

I was also very fortunate this time around to receive corresponding coloured  gem clip rings for each one in pink, clear, green and blue. So all of my Twist & Pout balms are clipped and ready to go. 

So my thoughts regarding the balm itself is that the vanilla is super tasty and the aroma is nice while on the lips. They are very moisturizing with a mild oiliness, so it is a product you would have to apply more frequently do to the emollient slip. It does a nice job of making my lips feel soft after each use. The Citrus Honey is equally pleasing just in a more fresh and sweet way and less gourmand then the vanilla. Also keep in mind the citrus honey has shimmer, but i am happy to report I don't feel it at all and it makes the lips look lovely without being cray with glitter

Dealers within Canada and Europe would have to be your source for getting Twist & Pout because at this time they only ship within the U.S. 

In closing I really think this is a catchy little product and with Twist & Pout coming out with new designs all the time this venture should be a big success. I myself already have ideas in my mind of what I would love to see come from Twist & Pout in the future. I am pleased to have had the opportunity to review this product for Twist & Pout and share it with you all. 

I also feel these would make great stocking stuffer's. All though a bit pricey, they would also be fun to give out at a sweet 16 birthday, also give to your bridesmaids as token gifts, and just all around a nice treat for you, your lips and anyone elses. Enjoy:)

Thanks for reading and have an awesome day

XOXO:)
