For a long time I’ve been interested in the idea of product subscriptions, but have always run into one of two problems: either shipping to Turkey has been exorbitant, or the product has not been interesting to me in the least. When I discovered Bonbon Balm‘s monthly lip balm subscription, I jumped at it, because for only £5 a month, you can have a new lip balm every month, with free shipping anywhere in Europe. Royal Mail includes Turkey in their definition of “Europe,” so I got lucky there.
I’ve had two balms so far, Mitchum Mint and Tangerine, and both are just wonderful. I love the soft, non-waxy texture, and all the ingredients are natural. I could go on and on about Bonbon’s commitment to using organic, fair trade ingredients wherever possible, and I know that’s a priority, but really I’m just in love with the way the balms smell and feel. If you live anywhere in Europe, this is definitely a worthwhile use of £5 a month. Link
