Our Lip Balm Ingredients
Not all lip balms are created equal. Many lip balms use inexpensive petroleum products like petroleum jelly and mineral oil which do not contain any of the beneficial nutrients of their plant-based counterparts. Most lip balms contain artificial and chemical ingredients, usually in the form of artificial flavors and colors. At Ganache for Lips, we work very hard sourcing the highest quality all-natural and unrefined ingredients from botanical sources. It may be harder to accomplish and cost a little more, but we think our customers are worth it. Because our products contain natural ingredients and are made in small lots, there may be slight variations in color and aroma from batch to batch. » FEATURED LIP BALM INGREDIENTS
Our Body Oil Veil Ingredients
We are always on the lookout for the highest quality botanical materials to include in our skincare products. We never use synthetic colors or fragrances, and we use natural anti-oxidants to preserve base oils. Not only are the products effective for their stated purpose, we include ingredients with additional benefits, such as anti-inflammatories, anti-oxidants, and anti-irritants. We never use petroleum based products. Where preservatives are needed (i.e. in water-containing products) we never use parabens or formaldehyde-releasing chemicals. We do not conduct animal testing and we do not conduct business with anyone who does. » FEATURED BODY OIL INGREDIENTS
About Sunscreen
Many of our customers have asked why we do not have a lip balm with SPF. The answer is that the most commonly used sunscreens today are chemicals. They include oxybenzone, dioxybenzone, octyl methoxycinnamate, and padimate-O. Since our product is labeled as all-natural, we can’t, in good conscience, use those chemicals. Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are naturally occurring minerals that provide a physical barrier to UV rays, but they also contain a white pigment which most people would find unattractive.
