Imagine Hidden Valley Ranch, Crunchy Celery, Fresh Carrot, and Buffalo Sauce flavors all infused into a lip balm. While many might dismiss the idea, the "Join Waitlist" button on Burt's Bees' website, replacing the typical "Buy now" button, tells a different story. Ranch dressing aficionados now have the chance to snag this limited-edition four-pack for $11.99.

The buzz around this collaboration began on January 17 when the product officially went on sale, accompanied by a joint Instagram post from both companies. The comment section exploded with astonishment and skepticism. "No way this is real!!!! Is it April 1st???" questioned one person. To this, @hidden.valley replied, "It's real! And it's January 17!" According to Burt's Bees, the four-pack sold out within hours of its release, leaving many in awe.

For those quick to assume it's a prank, Hidden Valley Ranch is no stranger to unconventional collaborations. Remember TRUFF's truffle hot sauce? The unexpected pairing turned out to be a hit, leaving hot sauce and ranch lovers to manually mix the two. Then came the surprising alliance with Van Leeuwen, resulting in a Hidden Valley Ranch ice cream flavor. Yes, you read that right – ice cream. Even for die-hard Ranch enthusiasts, this collaboration pushed the boundaries. Yet, on a Reddit thread, amidst criticism, one user admitted that Van Leeuwen "nailed it" on the flavor.

The Instagram comments on the lip balm collaboration tell a tale of genuine excitement. Fans of Hidden Valley Ranch couldn't be more thrilled at the prospect of smearing celery, carrot, buffalo sauce, and ranch dressing-flavored lip balms on their mouths. "Honestly the collab of my dreams," declared one enthusiast. Another, apparently happily married with three children, claimed, "This might be the happiest day of my life."

In the world of beauty and flavor fusion, Burt's Bees and Hidden Valley Ranch have certainly left an indelible mark. Whether you're an adventurous beauty enthusiast or a dedicated Ranch lover, this collaboration proves that sometimes, the most unexpected pairings can lead to surprisingly delightful results.
