Lip Balm

The balm is designed to be thicker than just an oil blend

* Balm is effective if it builds the occlusive layer on the lips to contain moisture. Lip skin is very thin and is not good at retaining moisture. Dry air, cold temperatures, and wind all contribute to drawing moisture away from the body and particularly the skin on the lips. An essential oil has been left out of this recipe because the lips are so sensitive this is too risky. Choose Fractionated Coconut Oil from China for environments that are more than 25°C or Jojoba Gold Oil from Heaven for environments that are less than 25°C
