La Sol All-Natural Lip Balm
Harmful chemicals, allergens, and manufactured flavors often found in conventional lip balms wreak havoc on tender skin. Opt instead for this all-natural treatment that promotes lip health and hydration. Made from sunflower oil, beeswax, extra virgin olive oil, hemp seed oil, rosemary extract, vitamin E, aloe vera, and vanilla for flavor, it’s better for the planet, too!
