Burt’s Bees Flavor Crystals Lip Balm is a new lip balm hitting drugstores for Spring 2017 that’s available in three shade selections with “a burst of crystallized fruit juice”! For some odd reason or another as soon as I saw the Burt’s Bees Flavor Crystals Lip Balm I instantly think of Lip Freak Buzzing Lip Balm, the whole burst of crystallized fruit juice had me thinking that something amazing was going to happen when I applied this to my lips.

Remember Bubbaloo Gum? As a child, there was nothing more awesome than sinking your teeth into a soft piece of Bubbaloo and having the juicy sweet liquid explode in your mouth. Crystals Lip Balm sounded exactly like that! A burst of fruit juice? If I applied it would I get a juicy burst of yummy flavor? Or the buzz of Lip Freak?

Nothing happened. No buzz, no burst of juicy fruit flavor. Oh well! The good news is my lips are chapped as hell this week so trying out Burt’s Bees Flavor Crystals Lip Balm was a good idea. I moseyed into Walgreens last week because I was hopeful they’d have a flu shot available. I typically get a flu shot in September with my yearly physical at my Doctor’s office but this season I was so busy I didn’t have a second to go. So, realizing I missed my flu shot and also my yearly appointment I called my Doctor and asked for an appointment but he’s booked until after Christmas. I had this horrifying dream I’d be lying in bed with the flu (because you can sneeze in California and I’ll get sick here in New York) so, I ran over to Walgreens. I didn’t know what to expect as I never got a flu shot at a drugstore before but the procedure was friendly, simple, and quick plus I didn’t realize it but my medical insurance covered it. I thought I would have to pay $20 or $25 for the shot, I had no idea flu shots at the drugstore were covered by insurance! Ha, learn something new everyday!
