There are many lip balms on the market, most have so many chemicals in them that it would be better not to use them at all. Some people even use vaseline – which is a petroleum product. Consider how fast you absorb through your skin, then add the fact that you are licking your lips and drinking and eating, each time you are ingesting some petroleum. Not a healthy choice.
I recommend using the most simple products that will actually help your tissue to heal. The first in a long line of choices is to use Emu Oil. B Natural has a lip balm that is organic and comes in a tube or small jar and it is emu oil based. There are some good products on the market that we carry, some even have some mica (mineral) for pigment.
B Natural also has a complete all natural lip stick now available.
The other option is to make your own. I would recommend starting your base with shea nut butter, we sell that at a very low cost in bulk at B Natural, you can melt that, add alittle emu oil, and even alittle bees wax to firm it up, take that blend off the heat, add any essential oils for flavor or healing, and you have your own, all natural lip healing balm! Very easy!
