Plot twist: your lips have almost no oil glands. The rest of your face is basically self-moisturizing. Your lips? On their own. Here’s what that means, and why your lip balm has a very important job.
Your lips can’t make their own protective oil, so your lip balm has to do it for them. Choose wisely.
It’s called sebum: a natural oil from tiny glands that keeps skin soft and helps hold moisture in.
Your face is packed with these glands. Your lips, right next door? Almost none. Rude.
The red part of your lips is a transition zone between your face and the inside of your mouth.
Super thin, no sweat glands, no oil supply. Basically zero built-in protection.
Seriously cute. Seriously good. Seriously what your lips can’t make on their own.
Quick check. Tap what’s true for you.
Your lips can’t make their own protective layer, so your balm has to. Ours brings beeswax, propolis and vitamin E, and it’s 1+1 free right now.

Ingredients that sit on top and slow down moisture loss do the job your missing oil would do.
Petroleum jelly is the heavyweight (and it feels heavy). Beeswax is the lighter, comfier, less greasy option.
Saliva isn’t oil. It evaporates fast and takes moisture with it.
It also has enzymes that can irritate your lips. Swap the lick for a swipe.

Your skin’s oil also carries vitamin E to the surface. No oil, no delivery.
That’s why every jar of ours has conditioning vitamin E for a soft, cared-for feel.
Stay put, feel comfy and never sting. That’s the job.
Beeswax melts at around 145°F, way above body temperature, so it stays on your lips instead of melting off.
Comforting beeswax helps protect lips from feeling dry, propolis brings a comforting touch and vitamin E keeps things conditioned.
And it’s 1+1 free right now on as many as you like. Free returns for 30 days.
