This Week's Answer
Farmacy's Honey Butter Beeswax Lip Balm is a beeswax lip balm that moisturizes, conditions and provides quality hydration. This honey lip balm is formulated with the company's honey blend, cupuaçu and cocoa butters, plus a blend of food oils to deliver deep hydration to the lips.
Honey Butter Lip is aimed to bring suppleness to the lips with moisturizing and nourishing ingredients. Use in winter for relieving windblown or cold, chapped lips or use during the summer months as an additional barrier to lock in the moisture after being in the sun.
The combination of butters and oils in the honey beeswax lip balm delivers natural antioxidants. Other ingredients formulated in the lip balm include vitamin E to soften dry lips, propolis and royal jelly extract to provide overall moisture retention. In addition to healing, this non-greasy beeswax lip balm fills in fine lines or wrinkles to leave lips with a smooth finish.
With environmental concerns that consumers might face while choosing the correct product, the lip balm is paraben-free, synthetic fragrance-free and cruelty-free. In addition to environmental concerns, the product is gluten-free.
