Let me start by saying one of my biggest pet peeves is dry lips.  I will have a one track mind to find chapstick and until I do nothing else will matter.  So its now easy to say that a good chapstick is very important to me, and I tend to have at least one lurking in all my purses at all times.  So when I ran out of my go to burt bees and then kept forgetting to buy more every time I went to the store, I was beyond desperate for some chapstick!  Meg and I were heading out for one of our beauty 360 trips and because it is connected to a CVS, Meg and I were on high alert to remember to pickup chapstick for me.  What ended up happening is I started poking around the 100% Pure products and found their line of lip butter.  I picked it up and looked at the ingredients and the first 4 are: Organic butters of Avocado, Shea, Cocoa, and Organic Rosehip Oil.  Ummmmmm HELLO skin softening, lip puckering, lip kissing goodness!  They had a line of colors and flavors that all spelt yumo, but I opted for the black cherry one.  All of them have a little bit of color in them, but nothing extreme and they have some very pretty pinks that I can't wait to use in the summer.  It comes in a little oval tin that is adorable but not as easy to shove in my pocket like a typical tub would be.  I apply it with just with my finger, which I wasn't too found of at first because it leaves me with lip butter on my finger and nowhere to wipe it off at.  But one time after thinking about how great the color is on my lips I thought why not take the extra left over and use it as a cheek color.  I loved it!  Now I don't feel wasteful after using it on my lips, and its an easy way to give my makeup a pick me up as the work day goes on.  I have had this for almost a month and while i'm fully addicted to it and know I use it alot, I feel I am flying through it.  The lip butter says it good for 12 months (which I think is impressive) but I can already see the bottom of the tin, and at $13 a pop I don't know that I will keep buying this as my primary chapstick, but it has been a great replacement and good splurge item.
