Did you know that almost 200 million plastic lip balm tubes are sent to landfill each year? Keeping your lips soft and hydrated doesn't need to cost the earth when you choose Ethique's brand new range of eco friendly lip balms. 

These lip balms are packaged in a recyclable tube - which means that once you have used all of the lip balm goodness, the tube will be ready to be placed into your compost, or buried into the soil or a plant pot, where it will break down naturally and become yummy food for your plants.  

The Nectar lip balm is unscented. A non-sticky formulation of sustainable ingredients, such as cocoa butter, moringa oil, jojoba oil and castor seed oil help to hydrate your lips and retain moisture. 

How to use: Push up less than you think you'll need and apply evenly to your lips. If you have pushed up the tube more than you need, gently tap the tube a flat surface to get the product to move jiggle back down. Easy as!

Ingredients: Caprylic/capric triglyceride, Euphorbia cerifera (candelilla) wax, stearic acid, Cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, Theobroma cacao (cocoa) seed butter, Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil, Ricinis communis (castor) seed oil, Moringa oleifera (moringa) seed oil.

Why this product is Simple and Sustainable

Haven't made the switch yet? Here's why you should give Ethique's products a go today:

• Save the planet from plastic: Ethique's range of products is packaged in compostable cardboard packaging. Each Ethique lip balm saves the equivalent of 2 x 4.5ml plastic lip balm tubes from landfill!
• Save water: Liquid products are typically made up of active ingredients, filled out with water. Solid products contain only the active ingredient with no added water, meaning 7.2ml of water is saved for each Ethique lip balm that you use.
