Maybe I’m channeling LL Cool J but I’m always licking my lips. So I need a good lip balm to keep them from getting dry. I love the L’OCCITANE Shea butter lip balm I’m a sucker for shea butter and this makes my lips so soft and I love the smell. It works well for the nights I run my non-profit kissing booth for men in uniform. $10.00

The set includes two shades that originally only came in pots; Goldenberry and Black Raspberry!

The formula is made with natural extracts of Mango and Grape Seed, Rose Hips, and Apricot Kernal.

Why Grape Seed?: Pressed from the seeds of various varieties of grapes, an abundant by-product of wine making, grape seed oil is prized for its culinary uses as well as cosmetic. This clean-tasting, lightweight oil is rich in essential fatty acids (especially linoleic), antioxidants and vitamin E and is a superb all-over skin moisturizer and conditioner.

Why Rose Hips?: Rose Extract, derived from various rose species, is known for its tonic and deodorant properties. It also has skin soothing, and aroma therapeutic (relaxing) benefits and is used as a fragrance. Rose Extract also aids in exfoliating.

Why Apricot?: Apricot Kernel Oil is extracted from apricot kernels and has a very high Vitamin E content (aiding fast absorption) and is a trygliceride composed of 75% oleic acid and 20% linoleic acid, and unsaturated fatty acids esterfied with glycerin – similar to avocado oil and sesame oil. Found to be highly compatible with the skin. Apricot Kernel Oil moisturizes and softens skin while helping retain clarity and suppleness.

This non-sticky gloss hydrates lips and restores their suppleness as antioxidants help preserve a healthy appearance.
