Learn more about our mission.

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 – With a hint of peppermint, Sugarplum is our tinted lip balm designed to nourish and hydrate your lips with cocoa butter alongside castor seed, moringa and jojoba oils. These heavy-moisture-hitters lock in hydration and leave your lips silky smooth, for longer. On application of our lip balms, 94% of testers found an immediate improvement in the appearance of dry lips! Sugarplum 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 fairly traded sustainable 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: Love your bars or get your money back—it's that simple! We're so confident in our formulas, we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Not totally happy? Return it within 6 months for a full refund. We want you to feel great about making the switch to solid bars, so go ahead and give them a try, risk-free.

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.

Pepperminty
This is a peppermint flavoured coloured lip balm. It goes on easily and gives a pleasant lip tingle. It makes things feel a lot like Christmas. The photo shows 1 swipe but it is buildable. It's a warm red colour

Very dry
I love the color but the product itself is very dry. My lips don’t feel moisturized.

Thanks so much for your feedback, Jacqueline—we’re glad you loved the colour, but we’re sorry to hear the texture didn’t feel as moisturising as expected.

Our lip balms are formulated without petroleum or silicones, using natural ingredients like castor oil and candelilla wax. This can give the balm a firmer feel, especially in cooler conditions. Warming the balm slightly with your fingers before application can help improve glide and make it feel more nourishing on the lips.

We really appreciate you giving it a try and sharing your experience—it helps us continue to improve. 💚

Great! Almost like lipstick.
It has a good amount of color saturation to wear as a lipstick. Just the right shade for all around wear.

it has a tint
This is kind of a two for one.... a lipstick and a balm. Makes it fun to wear while protecting your lips. If my lips are really dry I would use one of Ethique's non-tinted balms to avoid striping from the balm on creaked skin. Or, just remember to blot.
