This lip balm is 100% organic comes from an up and coming business from Cicero, New York. (Yeah New York!) I was really pumped about this because of the promise of limey goodness with all this wonderful organicness.
It looks like any hemp lip balm. A golden color with a hint more green because of the lime peel. It has a pleasant mix of lime and hemp that composes it's scent. When you put it on, there is a slight hint of the zing you get from a lime. It is very refreshing but not over powering.
It goes on well. It does not glide on super silky. It is a soft and firm glide that gets smoother the more you put on. It sinks into your lips almost instantly and begins to make them feel super moist. There is no waxy or greasy feel to this balm, nor is there a residue. I have been talking with some friends about hemp lip balms. Some thing that the hemp balm leaves a residue after it wears, and I haven't really seen that in any of the hemp balms I have tried, and especially not in this one. It absorbs into your lips so evenly it's wonderful. It is such a fresh sensation.
It wears a little bit longer than your average lip balm, about 3 hours. It doesn't hold up to eating, but you can drink a little bit and still have some balm left on your lips.
Overall, I think this is another superb showing of hemp lip balm. It is not vegan (which would have been stellar!!) but it is 100% natural and organic. The label is also made of recycled materials, and possibly the tube as well. This company, as states their site and etsy profile, are growing and focusing on the use of truly natural products in the home and in the lives of your loved ones. They began the company when their first child was born and I think that this is possibly the best motivation ever. Better products for our future generations that are also eco-friendly and leave a lesser carbon-footprint.
Rating: 4.9 outta 5
(If only it was vegan!!!)

I love this balm too! It is not too overpowering and leaves my lips nice and moist. I love that it is organic too! My 3 year old even likes me to apply it to him...which is very rare :)
They also have a great Sun Block that is all natural and I hear they are working on some other products, including an organic bug spray (which would be well used at our house :).
I had the chance to talk to the owners and they are super inspiring with how much work they put into researching their products to find the absolute best for you and your loved ones!
Wow! This stuff is awesome. I'm a chap-stick-aholic, applying many times a day. This balm lasts a long time and smells delicious. I definitely appreciate that it's organic...I can't wait to see more products from this line!
