THE DIRT
The majority of conventional lip balms and chap sticks contain crude oil derived base products. Vaseline (petroleum jelly), petroleum, paraffin or mineral oil are all made from Crude Oil. Some studies have suggested these may be carcinogenic and are noted as human teratogens (causing foetal developmental defects) due to the presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
Ever wondered why you need to reapply your lip balm so often? Petroleum based lip balms may make your lips soft and shiny on the surface, deep down they are drying them out, encouraging continual use!!
Crude Oil is a non-renewable resource, why waste it on your lips.
G SPOT
Gina is rarely found without a chemical free lip balm nearby. As a chocolate addict (dark and organic of course!) she finds chocolate, vanilla or aniseed flavoured versions not only make her lips irresistible, they also kill those choci cravings without the love handles!!
