6 Best Eco Friendly Lip Balm
I’ve been giving a lot of thought to the products I use in my day to day living – not just beauty products but everything I consume. It’s not just about how much I consume but also what goes into the products that I consume.
I put together this list of the best eco-friendly lip balm after looking at the lip balm products I most enjoy using that have values I support.
So what makes lip balm eco-friendly? In part, it’s the ingredients that go into the lip balm products.
Are they made from oil-based (petroleum jelly) type products? Or are they made from more sustainable products like beeswax or cocoa butter?
Here are a few eco lip balms you may want to try.
Burts Bees
Burt’s Bees Superfruit Lip Balm
Burt’s Bees Superfruit Lip Balms delivers nutrient-rich moisture to soften, hydrate, and protect your lips while delivering a deliciously sweet finish. Shea butter promotes firmness and elasticity while sunflower seed oil and lanolin lock in moisture for a supple texture.

I love the Burt’s Bees line… I also use Trader Joes. I assume that is also Eco Friendly. But I know Trader Joe’s is regional. (West Coast)
Sadly we don’t have a Trader Joe’s near me but I do love Burt’s Bees!
I use Burts Bees and EOS but I had never even heard of the other brands. I am definitely going to give them a try all summer long because it means a lot to me to buy eco friendly products.
It really is important, Jen. Now more than ever.
I have tried Burt’s Bees before. I really like them, but I haven’t tried any of the others yet.
Hope you have a chance soon, Aubrey.
We are into Burt’s Bees here and EOS! I love the mint and strawberry EOS flavors and the peppermint Burt’s Bees.
I haven’t tried the strawberry EOS yet but I do like the mint!
I was hoping there would be some consideration for eco-friendly packaging as far as the dispenser goes. I don’t think recycling centres local to me recycle the plastic lip balms. Are metal ones better for the environment? Would love some info on this.
I would think that in order to be recycled, the entire holder would have to be made of the same recyclable material. Or, you’d have to disassemble it to recycle the pieces that are recyclable. Perhaps the solid metal tins would be the most recyclable?
