E.l.f. Squeeze Me Flavor Flashback Lip Balm tubes in pink, yellow, brown, blue and coral, each with an enamel charm

The e.l.f. Squeeze Me Flavor Flashback Lip Balm is a limited-edition series of five sheer-tint, flavoured lip balms, each with a matching charm. e.l.f. Cosmetics sells each balm separately for $5 on elfcosmetics.com, where all five shades went live on 8 October 2026.

This season, e.l.f. has also released the e.l.f. POP Spicy Bundt Nice Tromsø Collection, a holiday body mist and body care collection.

Updated 9 October 2026: all five shades are in stock on elfcosmetics.com, and Fruit Punch Pouch is in stock on elfcosmetics.co.uk. Because it's limited edition, stock can change quickly.

Where to Buy

Checked 9 October 2026: all five shades are in stock on elfcosmetics.com, and Fruit Punch Pouch is in stock on elfcosmetics.co.uk. Other retailers haven't listed it yet.

Both versions use the same squeeze-tube format at the same US price. The Flavor Flashback edition changes the flavours to a snack-nostalgia theme and adds a matching charm to each tube.

e.l.f. also sells the Squeeze Me More Lip Balm Duos for $9, which we covered in our post on the e.l.f. Squeeze Me More Lip Balm Duo.

What Makes the Squeeze Me Flavor Flashback Lip Balm Different?

  • Each of the five flavours is based on a specific throwback snack, from rainbow fruit cereal to mall pretzels.
  • Each tube comes with its own matching charm.
  • It is a limited-edition run within e.l.f.'s permanent Squeeze Me Lip Balm range.

Lip balms with attached accessories are a theme this season. The Party of You Coat Check Lip Balm & Puffer Coat Keychain Sets pair a balm with a keychain.

Formula and Packaging

  • Key ingredients: e.l.f. lists hyaluronic acid, shea butter, goji berry extract, squalane and glycerin. The brand says the lightweight balm hydrates and nourishes lips with a sheer tint, and that it is 100% vegan and cruelty-free.
  • Format: The balm comes in a squeeze tube with a slanted-tip applicator, which e.l.f. describes as pocket-sized and mess-free.
