Vanilla Bean

Vanilla Bean lip balm tube

$8.00

This is the one that started everything — the tube my niece tried in a Michigan shop and named the company with one sentence. Real vanilla bean, steeped in and strained out, with mango butter, lanolin, and coconut oil doing the quiet work. It tastes like vanilla because it is vanilla.

Read the tube

The full formula, in label order. Tap any ingredient for what it is and why it's there.

Mango butter

Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter Pressed from the seed inside a mango. It's the biggest ingredient in the tube — a soft, rich butter that moisturizes without feeling waxy, and the reason the balm glides the way it does.

Beeswax

Cera Alba Straight from the hive. Beeswax is the structure — it holds the stick together and seals moisture against your lips instead of letting it evaporate.

Lanolin

Lanolin From sheep's wool — sheared, washed, never harming the sheep. It's one of the most effective conditioning ingredients there is, and it's also why this balm isn't vegan. We'd rather tell you that than hide it.

Castor oil

Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil Cold-pressed from castor seeds. It gives the balm its light shine and its staying power — this is why one swipe lasts.

Jojoba oil

Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil Technically a liquid wax from a desert shrub, and remarkably close to the oils your skin makes on its own. It absorbs instead of sitting on top.

Shea butter

Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter From the nut of the shea tree. A softening butter that rounds out the mango — the two together are most of what your lips actually feel.

Sweet almond oil

Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil A light moisturizing oil — and the oil we steep our calendula flowers in, so it carries the calendula into the tube.

Coconut oil

Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil Virgin, unrefined coconut oil. It melts at skin temperature, which is why the balm softens the moment it touches your lips.

Glycerin

Glycerin Plant-derived. Glycerin draws moisture toward your skin and holds it there. A small amount does real work.

Vanilla

Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract The real thing, twice: a whole vanilla bean steeped into the warm oils and then removed, plus a concentrated extract of actual vanilla beans. This is the entire flavor. There is no "vanilla flavor" here — there's vanilla.

Vitamin E

Tocopherol Natural vitamin E. It keeps the oils in the tube fresh, so the last swipe is as good as the first.

Calendula

Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract Marigold flowers, steeped slowly into the almond oil. A gentle, traditional skin-conditioning botanical — in the tube because it earns its place, not because it sounds nice on a label.
