After my recent discovery that Burt's Bees chapstick has ingredients that take the natural oils out of your lips, essentially drying them even more so you have to keep reapplying...I became very skeptical of lip care these days! A few months ago I wrote this post about Aquaphor, and I still think it treats your lips the best. However, sometimes we need some color in that area, without losing the moisturizing components. ILIA Pure Lip Care is an organic and ethically sustainable lip care company, using certified organic bioactive botanicals that nourish and rejuvenate the lips. This company sells lipstick in array of beautiful colors; my personal favorite is their "shell shock" shade! What I love most about ILIA is the combination of some of the most essential oils and vitamins used. Organic ingredients such as Jojoba oil, Cocoa Butter, Vitamin E, and the natural antioxidants of Pomegranate are used in the products and help protect lips against daily exposure to free radicals - free radicals cause faster aging, no one wants to look older than they are! They also add an uplifting scent, using oils of Jasmine and Orange Blossom. Last but not least, the lipstick case is made with recycled aluminum, filled with 85% organic ingredients - perfect for eco friendly buyers. All in all, this is a highly recommended product! So if you are in a chapped-lips rut, or just want to try out a new brand of lipstick, ILIA should be your next stop.
Enjoy!
