Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balm in Pink Blossom on lips
Burt sure keeps his bees busy! Their latest creation, a concoction of 100% natural ingredients, gives a soothing sheer tint to lips.
Available in six sheer shades ranging from pink to red to neutral, these Tinted Lip Balms ($7 each) moisturize and nourish lips with soft flower waxes, shea butter and added vitamin E.
What the Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balms DON’T contain: phthalates, parabens and sodium lauryl sulfate
The ones I’ve been wearing lately are peachy Tiger Lily and Pink Blossom. Both feel smooth, light and non-sticky on my lips, and I dig their light, sweet raspberry flavor and scent.

Like all of Burt’s products, the Tinted Lip Balms proudly display (well, they could) the official Tabs Stamp of Approval, since they’re cruelty-free and were developed without being tested on animals.
PRICE: $7 each
AVAILABILITY: At drugstores, grocery stores and also online

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. Oh, yeah…
Fieran says
Ah this looks cute 🙂 I shall hunt for them the next time I’m near a Boot’s Pharmacy.
TGIF Karen and have a wonderful weekend. Tell Tabs I said hi and hope he’s not too busy. Kitty Models need rest too!
Karen says
I’ll pass along the message. 😉 I think he has a few shoots this weekend (a kitty model’s job is never done!), but I’ll make sure he gets some downtime in.
Tracy says
These look great! I hope they are up here.
Happy Friday Karen and Tabs!
Karen says
Happy Friday, Tracy! Whatcha got planned for the weekend?
Tracy says
Nothing much-it’s supposed to snow here all weekend, and I hate driving when that happens.
What about you?
Rengirl says
Those look great. I am definitely going to grab Tiger Lily because I love the name and the color. Would be great for days when I’m too lazy to slap on the lipstick.
Karen says
Yes! I bet it would look super pretty layered on top of a nude lip liner too.
marciepooh says
How do these compare to Burt’s Bees’ Lip Shimmers?
Karen says
Hi Marciepooh,
I actually like these more. They seem more pigmented and moisturizing.
Myr says
The cool cardboard packaging suckered me into buying Pink Blossom. Man, they’re expensive! The color shows up nicely on my lips. It doesn’t last long, though. 🙁
It reminds me of the Love’s SoftKiss tinted lip balm I used to have forever ago. Except that it was a little more pink than fuschia and was more pigmented.
Karen says
Yeah… I think limited wear time is a given for most balms like this. At least they’re sheer enough so you don’t have to apply them with a mirror…
natalie says
my lips dry out like crazy and i just bought the new gaga lipstick, what should i wear beneath?
sometimes even balms dry my lips
Karen says
This is pretty hydrating. I also like Philosophy’s Kiss Me lip balms, too. They’re super moisturizing as well!
Rads says
These look soo cute – love the packaging 🙂
Karen says
Super cute!
Alka says
Love, love, love these! I’ll be keeping my eyes out for them. Happy Friday Karen & Tabs!
Karen says
Happy Friday, Alka! What are you up to this weekend?
Alka says
The kiddos are off to see the grandparents this weekend so Hubs and I are looking forward to a nice, quiet weekend. I’m hoping it involves sipping ritas on the patio with some fresh shrimp and pineapple on the BBQ. 😀 How about you? Any big plans?
Karen says
That sounds wonderfully relaxing, and I’m sure the kids will be happy to get some time in with their grandparents too!
I have to do a LOT of un-fun stuff that needs to get done: taxes, cleaning and working out. Blah!
Nicki says
I got this in Red Dahlia last week. It’s really sheer but I like it. 🙂
Karen says
I think I’m going to have to try that shade next. 🙂
steph b says
I have it too and love it. Hibiscus is also wonderful.
Karen says
Adding it to my list! 🙂
karo says
LOVE LIEBE LOVE LIEBE!!! 😉
Karen says
Yay! 🙂
gio says
These look very pretty! Love the packaging too.
Karen says
They’re too cute, right?
Nina says
ohh burts bees — <3333
Karen says
I know! True <3! Lately I've been all about these and their awesome hand cream. 🙂
Nina says
i have the hand cream in 2 places – my desk and the sink.
its lovely – ive been pretty loyal to the neutrogena swiss hand cream but it has met its match!
Vijaya says
I’ve never seen these balms before. Must check my local drugstore more often!
Karen says
Burt’s has some great stuff. Their hand and foot creams and the bomb.com!
kana says
These look really interesting. I havent seen these yet. That peach one looks yummy, lol!! Have a great weekennd, Karen! It’s supposed to be raining/snowing this weekend and i am totally over this weather! Palmdale is so lame.
Karen says
Hi Kana,
It’s been quite cold and rainy too. Right now the sun’s out… we’ll see how long it sticks around. What are your plans for the weekend?
Kim says
I use their regular lip balm and it works well (peppermint flavor and a little tingle). The tinted versions are cute, though. 🙂
Happy Friday! I hope you have a good weekend. 🙂
Karen says
I hope yours is grrrreat! I’m so glad it’s Friday, woo hoo!
Raven says
This post made me so happy, I had to bust out some “Honey Bee” by Zee Avi. She’s got a Norah Jones-y kinda sound, and I’m sure she would love these tinted lip balms as much as I do. Can’t wait to see em on shelves up here in Canada!
Karen says
Hi Raven,
Sounds like I would dig her music. Can you recommend a few songs?
Happy Friday!
S says
How do these compare to the regular Burt’s Bees lip balm tubes?
Tiffany says
TGIF!!!
I have one of the darker shades… rose maybe? I like it, but nothing beats the pomegranate balm for me!
Karen says
TGIF, homie!!! 😀 Your weekend started yesterday, right? How goes it?!
Tiffany says
Yes ma’am. So far so good! Last night we had dinner at my fave place. Hubby was off today for a dr appt, so I tidyed up this morning, then we hit up kroger and target (hopefully the last batch of baby stuff!). What are you up to? Anything fun planned tonight?
Karen says
Oh nice. A yummy dinner is always a good way to kick things off. 🙂
And yay, good for you for being so prepared. Is the baby’s room all ready, too?
As for me… it looks like this weekend is gonna be all about getting shiz done. Taxes, cleaning and doing more research on a possible trip to Italy later this spring!
Tiffany says
Oooh I love trip planning! Tripadvisor is my ho! Italy would be so so awesome!!!
Baby doesn’t have her own room, unfortunately, but all her stuff is put together and ready to go!
Karen says
Oh, I haven’t hopped on that site yet. I’ve been reading the Rick Steve’s Italy book and asking random question on twitter, but that’s the extent of my planning so far, LOL!
Wait… I didn’t know you were having a girl! CONGRATS! 😀
Tiffany says
Girl that site is awesome for ratings and reviews of hotels and restaurants, and for lists of things to do/see. There are also forums that can be helpful. Love it.
Oh yeah, my poor husband is gonna be outnumbered!
Hazel says
ooh thanks for this! i just saw these yesterday at cvs in newark but they only had 3 tubes left > <
Karen says
You’re welcome, Hazel!
stacie says
I love BB lipbalms. I will def look out for these xoxox
Karen says
Yay! I hope you find them. 🙂
Amanda says
I’m obsessed with these. I just got the Hyacinth one. My lips are hotter than Timothy Olyphant right now. Maybe not quite.
Meghan says
I LOVE lip balms!!
Maria says
I have one in the shade rose and i like how it makes my lips look like they have life.
Karen says
They’re great little balms, aren’t they? So easy to use!
Fefe says
I tried Burt’s Bees before and it really dried my lips out. Only Chapstick brand and I get along for some reason. I may try these out though because I love tinted chapstick! Makes me happy.
Trish says
I bought one of these at rite aid thinking well…this might be awesome but $7 seems a lot for a drugstore lipbalm but OMG! soooooo moisturizing! Karen i love this product!
Karen says
I have this in Rose and I love it. Although every drugstore I go to, they are sold out, so I can’t try other shades.
Nika says
Awesome! I don’t think we have these in the Philippines yet. So far, I’ve been using the one with pomegranate oil and it’s a tad tinted as well. Can’t wait to try these out! 🙂
DalaLuz says
I love Burt’s Bees! Too bad they are very expensive over here, but when my hunnybuns goes over to the US they are on his shopping list 😉
Mandy says
I like how the Pink Blossom looks… do you have a picture of how TIger Lily looks on your lips or would you say it’s so sheer it doesn’t deposit any sort of color? I think this might be the first step of easing my way into orange lip colors…
Amanda says
I can’t wait to find these in my neck of the woods. based on the product I’ve seen online I really want to try honeysuckle!
Phyrra says
I like the peach shade 🙂
Dancerwendy says
These are really good! I have the darker berry shade called Red Dahlia, and it’s so pretty and moisturizing, wore it today in fact.. I got mine at a Walgreens, but I haven’t seen many places carrying these, which is too bad. Highly recommended!
Nina says
I think I’ll get the peach shade for a natural look in my NC42 skin. If it’s available in Aus. Btw, do you think this lipbalm is boyfriend friendly?
