Lip balms are among the best inventions that we use in our daily lives, and for lip balm lovers, have you ever read the label on your favorite lip products? It can be overwhelming to know the truth behind the pretty packaging.

The good ingredients list is here:

Plant-based vegetable / nut oils or butters, like Cocoa butter (soften, moisturise, protect), Jojoba oil (restore moisture)

Natural waxes, like beeswax (adding protective barriers)

Skin friendly plant extracts (nourishing and protecting)

100% pure essential oil (calming & healing)

Natural aroma derived from real fruit & plant extracts (It smells like real fruits / plants, because it is real!)

Here are a few toxic chemical ingredients that are not so great, you may want to avoid them when buying lip products:

Synthetic fragrance / parfum 
Synthetic preservative,
Petrolatum, 
Mineral oil,
Parabens 

Choose wisely, always read the label, and go green with beauty products!
