Who knew lip balm could be this fun?

Happy July! Yes, I’ve been MIA since last week, but for good reason… I was on vacation! But that doesn’t mean I didn’t have beauty on the brain, and let’s just say my husband would be happy if he never saw another European pharmacy for the rest of his life—and stay tuned for a post about all the goodies I scooped up.

So for my first day back, I figured I’d keep things light, which is why we’re talking about the latest addition to Glossier’s Balm Dotcom lineup. It’s called Birthday, and as someone who has tried them all, this one takes the cake.

Inspired by NYC’s Milk Bar bestseller, it literally tastes like the best cake you’ve ever eaten (if not better). The ultra-moisturizing balm is also infused with subtle shimmer, so not only does it feel great on your lips, it helps you look amazing, too. And if you don’t believe me, my 8-year-old son nearly fell over when he tried it (and he kept coming back for more before he left for camp—I miss that guy!)

Long story short, if you want to indulge in a sweet treat without all the calories, this lip balm will help quell your sugar craving and any dryness, chapping or flaking that may come your way!
