Lip Balm - natural & organic treatment for chapped lips

When choosing what's important for your own wellbeing in natural beauty products, things that are worn on the lips are always accidentally ingested. Lip care products are some of the most important to make the natural switch to first. Cracked lips can be painful. In the winter time in particular, a change in weather temperature, wind and internal heating are just some of the things that can cause your lips to become cracked or dry.

In this category you will find traditional budget friendly lip balms from people like Hurraw Lip Balm, the Weleda Skin Food version of a lip balm, plastic free lip balm and more high end nourishing balms that not only heal and soothe very dry lips but also treat rough skin, abrasions, bites and more. Most balms use some kind of wax to keep the moisture locked in. While beeswax is traditionally a popular option, many natural lip balm brands are using plant based waxes so their products are VEGAN. Choose the Vegan option from our Lifestyle & Ethical Choices filter to find the vegan choices.

Some lip glosses will be formulated to also be a lip treatment, to give you colour and hydration in the one product.

How often should I use lip balm?

Dermatologists recommend that you apply lip balm when your lips are dry and not as a matter of habit. Your skin naturally produces oils and using lip balms daily when they are not needed can stop your lips from producing that natural oil.

Why is a natural lip balm better?

Natural lip balm is worth that little bit of extra money because, like lipstick, it's impossible not to eat them. Mainstream lip balms are known for containing mineral oils, alcohol, menthol, camphor and artificial fragrances and dyes. All our lip balms are made from natural ingredients. Some of these ingredients can actually be drying, which is the complete opposite of what you need for chapped lips.
