Why Lips Need Extra Care

The stratum corneum — the outermost layer of skin that acts as a protective barrier — is extremely thin on the lips. In fact, lip skin is only about 3–5 cellular layers thick compared to roughly 16 layers on much of the face. Lips also lack sebaceous (oil) and sweat glands, which normally help keep skin moisturized and protected.

With only a very thin outer barrier layer and no natural oil production, lips are especially vulnerable to dehydration, environmental stress, and chapping caused by wind, sun, cold, and dry air. And when lips feel dry, we instinctively lick them for relief — but saliva evaporates quickly, often leaving lips even drier than before.

Because lips cannot moisturize themselves, they benefit from gentle, nourishing ingredients that help soften dryness and support moisture retention rather than simply coating the surface.

Lip Care That Truly Nourishes

Our organic lip balms are crafted with nourishing plant oils, rich butters, protective waxes, and botanical ingredients chosen to melt easily into lips, helping seal in moisture and restore softness and comfort.

From simple, fragrance-free balms to uplifting citrus blends, calming florals, herbal infusions, and cozy seasonal favorites, each balm offers a smooth, comforting glide and a breathable protective layer that keeps lips soft, supple, and naturally nourished throughout the day.

Getting the Most from Your Lip Balm

A few simple habits help keep lips healthy and comfortable:

•  Apply lip balm regularly, especially in dry or windy weather.
• If lips become flaky, gently exfoliate with a simple scrub of brown sugar and honey, rinse with warm water, then apply balm.
• Avoid licking or touching your lips when they feel dry.
• Stay well hydrated — lips reflect overall moisture levels in the body.

Ingredients You Can Feel Good About

Because lip balm is applied directly to the lips, some of it is inevitably ingested. Choosing balms made with ingredients you feel comfortable putting in your body simply makes sense.

Better for Your Lips — Better for the Planet

Millions of plastic lip balm tubes end up in landfills and oceans each year. Our zero-waste lip balms are handmade without synthetic ingredients and packaged in recyclable tins or plastic-free, paperboard tubes. Make the switch to organic lip care that nourishes your lips naturally — say goodbye to both synthetic ingredients and plastic packaging!

This collection reflects a simple philosophy: clean ingredients, honest formulas, and a sensory experience rooted in nature.
