My daughter and I both like the Mocha Velvet Eco Tints. I like it for me because it has enough color to wear around the house without feeling naked and I like it for my ten year old daughter because it has enough of a tint to give her a little color but not enough to make her dad freak that she’s wearing makeup. She likes it because it makes her feel special to wear makeup. (Guys just don’t get it). The Eco Tints also come in Plush Red and Rose Quartz.

EcoLips Balms range in price from $1.99 to $4.99

The Dark Chocolate Orange lip balm by Kokokahn has to be one of the best tasting lip balms I have ever used. At one time I never would have believed that orange and chocolate was a tasty flavor combination. Now I am a believer.

The lip balms made by Kokokahn are natural and delicious. They have just two flavors: chocolate orange and orange coconut, but the two flavors they have are unique and delicious…and so natural your lips won’t know what slicked them. Made with certified organic and all natural ingredients you don’t have to worry about licking the flavor off your lips because the ingredients are safe, natural and organic.

Kokokahn lip balms are $6.00 a piece
