Chocolate-smelling lip balm to soothe dry lips.

Quantity: Limited to 5

Almost 200 million plastic lip balm tubes are binned every year and the vast majority are never recycled. So, we think lips need a shake-up.

We've created a range dedicated to doing good; for the planet, for people and of course, for your lips.

Do good for your lips – So Cocoa is pure decadence, with oodles of organic, fair trade cocoa butter which isn't just fabulous for your lips but smells like a Belgian chocolatier too. We add in moringa, jojoba and castor oils for some serious luxury and a dab of vitamin e. On application of our lip balms, 94% of testers found an immediate improvement in the appearance of dry lips! So Cocoa is so good, you’ll never lose the tube!

Do good for the planet – plastic-free, home compostable packaging (yes the tube!).

Do good for people - Carefully crafted with luxurious ethically sourced ingredients from Rwanda, Ghana and Samoa to help support farming cooperatives (predominantly women owned) in these regions. Direct trade ensures that local growers receive stable prices and, reliable income which means in turn they are better able to look after their community and their environment.

The Ethique Guarantee: Trying new products might feel intimidating, so we’re here to boost your confidence! Try out a mini size first, or email our Miracle Workers for a custom recommendation. If you buy a product and it’s just not working out, return it to us for a full refund with our 100% satisfaction guarantee*!

Push (not twist) up base of tube (just a little!). Gently press onto lips, allowing it to warm for a few seconds. Then glide across lips for soft, smooth nourishment.

Pushed up too much? Give the base a light tap on a flat surface or the palm of your hand and the product will lower back into the tube.

Store at room temperature. Keep dry, away from moisture, and out of direct sunlight.

If stored somewhere cold, we recommend holding it to skin for a few seconds to warm it up so it glides on easily with application.

Favorite chapstick

It is so difficult to find a moisturizing, vegan chapstick. When my favorite brand went out of business I was scrambling to find something that came close. This formula is just as good, if not better, and comes in a compostable tube. Guilty free in slathering on in excess!

Earthy smell

Very smooth texture, love. But the scent is weird. Like wet straw or old rose stem clippings with the faintest hint of chocolate milk. I was expecting yummy chocolate but it reminds me of animal feed that's a bit dank IMO. Hope these could come in more mainstream friendly scents in future? Peppermint and the tinted sugarplum one were good.

Not for me.

This lip balm went off quite fast and smelt weird. It’s inconvenient that you can’t push it back down once it’s been pushed up. The surrounding cardboard gets greasy too.

Hi Victoria,

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your feedback on our Lip Balm although I'm sorry to hear that you found it went "off".

Please note for pushing it back down, we recommend tapping the bottom of the tube on a hard flat surface, this helps the product to slide down.

We have a product guarantee, and I'd be happy to refund this for you. If you're interested in this, please email us at hello@ethique.com and confirm the order number.

Thanks ~ Georgia
