bd balm

bd balm is our version of lip balm, chapstick, lip butter, or whatever your preferred item is for soothing and moisturizing your lips. Our lip balm is lusciously pure (like all of our products), and is a wonderfully silky product for maintaining a perfect pout.

We start with organic sunflower oil and beeswax, and add a little shea butter and jojoba oil. Shea butter is healing, and the jojoba oil gives bd balm its fabulous texture (silky, but not greasy). We also include a little vitamin e and lanolin to protect. We don't use any preservatives, and bd balm is petroleum free.

If you compare bd balm to some of the major products on the market, you'll find that ours is a more natural, holistic approach to healthy lips. Chapstick brand lip balm is made with petrolatum, a petroluem-derived base. Carmex, though simple, includes salicylic acid, which is in many anti-acne beauty products (I still can't figure out the benefit of having a drying agent in lip balm). Many other products use artificial colors and flavors as well.

I make bd balm in two varieties: peppermint and tea tree oil. Our peppermint is a bit reminiscent of Burt's Bees, using peppermint essential oil to get that cooling, minty effect. Tea tree oil is used to give our other variety antiseptic, antibacterial properties (great for kids!).

bd balm comes in .15 ounce, recycled plastic dial-up tubes. Each is $4.50 on our website.
