I love this product for the following reasons:
- USDA Certified Organic: no parabens, fragrances, or petrochemicals.
- Packaged in a “eco tube”: made out of 100% recycled paper, organic glue and pure soy ink. Plastic free, completely biodegradable and safe for home composting.
- Ease of use: instead of turning a wheel to make the balm come up, you just pinch the bottom of the tube like you would toothpaste. Just the right amount of balm pops up. Beautifully simple.
- Surprisingly durable: the cap fits snugly and the packaging is much more durable that I would have expected.
- Available in four delicious flavors: Almond, Grapefruit, Mint, Vanilla, and Natural (flavor free).
Full Discloser: Organic Essence was kind enough to provide me samples of three of their lip balms for testing purposes but I continue to use (and purchase) these product because I love them.

That is so awesome! Can’t wait to try it! And hopefully the packaging is available for home lip balm makers very soon!
