Many lip products on the market are made with petroleum, but petroleum dries your lips so you end up needing more. Burt’s Bees lip products are made with good stuff like beeswax, honey and essential oils.
BEESWAX - A natural wax made by bees in the cell walls of honeycombs. Beeswax is a natural emulsifier used in cosmetics. Adds a wonderful natural smell and color, and helps to seal and protect the skin when used to moisturize.

This is our most popular product of all. It’s packed with protective ingredients such as ultra emollient lanolin and almond oil to help soothe cracked or chapped lips. You can use it on healthy lips for a little peppermint tingle. You may want to keep one in your pocket, one in your desk and one in your car. Soon, you’ll hold them close to your heart. They’re available in the old-fashioned yellow tin or in a post-consumer recycled plastic tube. -

95.29% Natural:
At Burt's Bees, they label every product they make with what they call a "natural bar." This bar discloses exactly how natural that specific product is. Many of the things they make are 100% natural, but sometimes they can't be. Once in awhile, they have to create something in their "kitchen" in order to offer you the best products possible. For example, Vitamin E is an essential part of any skin care regimen, but it does not remain stable in its natural state. So when you see the words Tocopheryl Acetate on one of their labels, it's just their fancy word for Vitamin E.
