How it WorksThis Burt\'s Bees natural lip balm moisturises lips with ingredients like ultra-emollient lanolin, coconut oil and sunflower oil, and seals in hydration with beeswax. You can use it on healthy lips for a little peppermint tingle. No wonder it is the most popular product by Burt\'s Bees. How to Use It Apply balm liberally to your lips as often as needed, particularly in dry, cold or windy conditions. Featured Ingredient: Beeswax - A natural wax made by bees in the cell walls of honeycombs, this substance is a natural emulsifier used in cosmetics. Burt\'s Bees products are carefully crafted from time-tested, proven recipes using ingredients that are the best nature has to offer: beeswax, botanical and essential oils, herbs, flowers and minerals. These safe, effective ingredients have withstood the test of time. Because of this, Burt\'s Bees never use any ingredient that isn\'t proven safe and effective such as petroleum-synthesized fillers like mineral oil and propylene glycol. Burt\'s Bees don\'t use artificial preservatives such as methyl paraben or diazolidinyl urea.
