Tried + Tested: Hershey's Kisses Gimme Kisses Set

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens.
Chocolate and kisses and warm woolen mittens
Beauty a-go-go packed in vintage-y bags; these are a few of my favorite things…


Ask any girl what her favorite things are and we'll bet all the music in Vienna that she's got chocolate and kisses on the top of the list. And if she is anything like us, her winter wish list has hydrating lips balms up there too. So with that sentiment, we tried the only at Sephora, limited-edition Hershey's Kisses Gimme Kisses Set ($28), a delicious grouping of three über emollient balms and a fantastique chocolate colored carrying pouch.

The three sticks contain a healthy mix of olive oil, beeswax, and organic coconut oil to smooth chapped lips and soothe any dryness and irritation. There's even full-spectrum sunscreen to heal and protect while you are playing outside with some snowflakes on your lashes.

Each balm boasts a yummy, but—and this is important—not overpowering scent. There's a sugary-sweet Honey and Mr. Goodbar Chocolate. And the top pick—the it-smells-so-good-it-must-be-bad Almond flavor. But what really takes the cake is the charming image on the metallic-y bronzed pouch. The vintage-inspired print illustrates two young girls catching Hershey's Kisses from the sky... an idea which we forgot to add to our song.
