Bring colour into your lips and cheeks using the humble but beautiful beetroot, without the nasties! You’ll nourish your lips as well as imbue them with natural beauty due to the moisturising shea butter and coconut oil within. If you’ve already got an empty lip balm tin, you can use that to sustainably store it in. And the best part is, when you run out you can just make some more.
