Organic Coconut Oil
Our organic coconut oil, also known as Cocos Nucifera, is non-GMO and naturally refined to remove the coconut scent. We used to source pure, virgin and unrefined coconut oil, but found that most customers didn't enjoy the taste of coconut. We discovered we could continue to benefit from coconut oil's properties from a refined version, that uses a physical process to deodorize and involves no chemicals.
Coconut oil is one of our favorite ingredients because it is intensly moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, healing, antimicrobial
Local Beeswax
Beeswax acts as a natural emulsifier, helping combine our other ingredients seamlessly. It helps lock in moisture, is healing, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and may help soothe eczema and rosacea.
We source our beeswax from a Minnesota bee farm that demonstrates a true symbiotic relationship with bees. The bees are treated ethically and their health and growing population is top priority.
Bees are an essential part of our ecosystem and true sustainable and ethical bee farming is possible, as farmers remove and prevent pests from raiding colonies and help maintain healthy hives by removing only the excess honey combs, so the bees can flourish.
Organic Golden Jojoja Oil
Our Organic Golden Jojoba oil is cold-pressed and extracted from the jojoba plant. Packed with antioxidants, vitamins E and B, and essential fatty acids, it soothes irritation, promotes healing, and protects against environmental stressors.
Jojoba oil is one of the only oils that is most similar to our skin's natural sebum, helping balance and reduce oily skin. It is also deeply nourishing, leaving skin soft, toned, and hydrated. Also ideal for soothing skin irritations such as eczema, psoriasis, and sunburns.
Organic Pure Peppermint Essential Oil
Not all essential oils are created equal, and the quality of essential oils is obvious in their scent. Our peppermint essential oil, aka Mentha Piperita, has a robust, fresh, and sweet undertone and is harvested from fresh organic peppermint leaves. It has no fillers, phthalates or synthetic fragrance.
We chose to add this to our lip balm becuase nothing says fresh quite like peppermint. Due to its menthol properties, it can induce a cooling sensation when applied to the skin, but we make sure to keep it at a low concentration to avoid any tingling.
Our Unscented Lip Balm has no added essential oils.
