Traditional lip products that use a petroleum base don’t actually restore lips as petroleum acts as a moisture barrier and isn’t absorbed into the skin. In order to heal lips the ingredients should be beneficial to the skin and have healing properties. Organic lip balms from Merry Hempsters are made from natural products such as hemp seed oil, beeswax, olive and sunflower oils and natural extracts. Hemp seed oil contains a high amount of poly unsaturated essential fatty acids; this makes it wonderful to balance dry skin and lips. Merry Hempsters moisturizing formula goes on smoothly but not greasy like other lip balms. I have the vanilla flavor in my bedroom and tangerine is kept downstairs.
Merry Hempsters is dedicated to providing effective natural body care products that are environmentally sustainable. They strive to be environmentally responsible for the entire life of their products. This includes using tree-free paper produced from hemp stock and post-consumer recycled materials for their correspondence and packaging. Merry Hempsters ultimate goal is find a biodegradable plastic to use as their tubing so that when it is discarded it will grow into the resin from which it was made.
They don’t just produce lip balm; check out their balms and salves for Bumps and Bruises, Muscle Rubs and Tattoo Balm to ensure proper skin healing. Merry Hempsters can be found at Whole Foods Markets and local natural products stores and wellness centers.
