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 - Pepped Up is our cooling peppermint lip balm formulated with cocoa butter and jojoba oil, for silky smooth lips. Moringa and castor oils lock in hydration and are packed full of vitamin e and fatty acids, to aid in moisture retention. On application of our lip balms, 94% of testers found an immediate improvement in the appearance of dry lips! Pepped up leaves you minty fresh, so you won't mind wearing your face mask.    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.

Favourite lip balm

The peppermint lip balm is my go to and I order it almost every time Ethique has a sale to stock up 😂 Lasts for ages, tastes really nice and I love that there’s no nasties in the balm or the packaging (especially as my dog also really enjoys the taste of this lip balm ….)

My go-to for three years - there’s nothing better than this.

This is my first time writing a review for anything ever. I’m just so passionate about this lip balm.

This lip balm is simply amazing, and I keep it on me constantly. Don’t let the first few applications deceive you, they can be a bit firm feeling - this balm needs to be “broken in” after a few applications to reveal its wonderful smoothness. Keep with it!

The finish is satin/matte. You can pile on a lot without it looking like you are wearing a lot. Perfect for winter to keep that moisture barrier intact.

I am a heavy lip balm user (I should really count how many of these I’ve used in three years, lol) and this product gives me peace of mind due to its compostable end of life as well.

I’ve converted two people in my life onto this balm already and I will sing its praises for years to come.

Pepped Up is my personal favorite but the Nectar (unscented, unflavoured) is great as well. Any flavor you choose is understated and subtle: it won’t impart onto what you eat nor drink, and you won’t get tired of the scent/flavor.

Big fan, 11/10, will buy again and again and again.

Refreshing!

Great lip balm for every day use - not too minty. It's soft (even in cold weather) and goes on smoothly. Very happy with this lip balm!

Meh

While the peppermint of this lip balm is very refreshing, it does not apply as smoothly as I thought, and is not very hydrating. Which is too bad, because all of the other category of products from Ethique are divine

Ethique

Hi Marcia,

Thank you so much for your feedback, although I'm so sorry to hear about the issues you've had with our Lip Balm range!

Our lip balms do have a firmer formulation - because they are in home-compostable tubes, a firmer consistency allows them to have better temperature stability which means they won’t melt so easily and can withstand being in your pocket or handbag. This firmer formulation and thicker feeling on your lips also means that the balm is longer lasting (meaning you won’t have to reapply a million times in a day!) and ingredients such as candelilla wax form a protective barrier against moisture loss for supple, healthy-looking lips.

If you’re finding that it’s a little too heavy on your lips, our top recommendation is to apply a little less than you think you need - one or two swipes at most as a little goes a long way and to see how this feels in comparison. Of course, we really appreciate all the feedback on our brand new balms so if there is a way you think we can improve our new lip balms, please do let us know!

Please also know that we do have a product guarantee, and because you didn't love this product, I would be more than happy to provide you with a replacement of another product. Are there any other products that you would be interested in trying?If you're interested in this, please flick us an email at hello@ethique.com 😊

Peppermint Perfection!

This is my fave lip balm. Moisturising and nourishing without being slippery or oily. Smells great and doesn’t leave any icky taste on my lips. A tube lasts for ages. So far I haven’t destroyed any tube despite just popping them in my pocket whatever I’m doing; working, exercising or socialising. Love it!
