Review: Eco Lips Vanilla Hemp Organic Lip Balm

Oils from olives and other plants may be more famous, but hemp seed oil has some great benefits as well. Eco Lips used this special oil as a main component in their Hemp Lip Balm, which has a hint of vanilla flavor to balance the nutty hemp.

Pros:
  • Affordable
  • Easy to apply
  • Smooth formula
  • Made with Fair Trade Certified cocoa butter
  • Organic ingredients
Cons:
  • May be hard to find this specific balm in stores
Summary:
This balm has a great, classic texture. It is very moisturizing and has a light vanilla flavor. The hemp oil isn't too strong, but it does lend a unique character to the balm (so it's not purely a vanilla flavor). It is USDA Organic and rates a low 1 on EWG's Skin Deep database. I was disappointed to see that it is not vegan, but the line does offer a few vegan balms. However, while I have seen Eco Lips in some stores, it may be hard to find a specific flavor, so I recommend ordering online.

Also available on Amazon.com.
