The two ingredients above mentioned - shea butter and coconut oil - will protect the lips but another key ingredient here is beeswax. Beeswax forms a protect layer on the lips to combat extreme weather conditions. But also, as a daily use, putting beeswax into you lip balm will offer protection against environmental issues such as pollution.
It also helps lock in the moisture already in the lips and so therefore is moisturising too.
Our beeswax lip balm has been carefully formulated to give your lips maximum protection against the elements and moisturises and nourishes your lips too.

Beeswax lip balm is a type of lip care product that primarily uses beeswax as its base ingredient. Beeswax is a natural substance produced by honeybees, which they use to build their hives. In skincare products, it acts as an emollient and humectant, helping to moisturize and protect the skin.
Beeswax lip balms often contain other nourishing ingredients like essential oils, vitamin E, and shea butter. These ingredients work together to provide a protective barrier on the lips against harsh environmental factors such as wind and cold weather.
Don't you remember when "lip balm" wasn't called lip balm but was called "chapstick"? You went nowhere without your "chapstick" in your bag. You slathered it on to keep those lips moisturised and protected. Those lips had to be blemish free, with no sign of dryness or chapped lips, and definitely no cold sores. Cold sores were a no-no, a sign of weakness, a reason to lower your head in shame when you wanted to hide away so that the world could not see your cursed lips. Don't you remember the different flavours that came with chapstick? One I remember is cherry and another is spearmint. Yummy yummy!! I believe that there was also strawberry-flavoured chapstick too (or was it raspberry-flavoured?). One was so cool when one took out their chapstick and covered it on the lips. Sooo Cooool!
Chapstick, in fact, is a brand name for lip balm and, according to Wikipedia, manufactured by Haleon. But we used the name for any product that was for the lips. Or at least I did. Maybe one has to be the other side of 40 to appreciate what I'm saying. I'm not quite sure when "lip balm" became the word to describe lip balm. Nowadays, the name still holds but the word "lip balm" seems to be a more popular term for what protects and moisturises the lips.
When one talked about chapstick and needing it, it was because the lips were in a sorry state - all chapped and with cold sores. One felt very miserable and vulnerable around the mouth. In winter the cold wind was exacerbating the problem. Or perhaps the relentless sun in the summer (not that we get too much of that here in Ireland). There was nothing worse than having chapped lips
And now I'll blow my own horn here!! At Heartworks-Skincare we make a lip balm that truly does what it says on the tin. It moisturises and, at the same time, protects the very delicate skin on the lips. With beeswax, coconut oil, and shea butter as its chief ingredients it takes good care of your lips. There are 6 variations all of which are with different essential oils as the fragrance. Try one today! You won't be sorry

Beeswax is a natural wax produced by honey bees and has been used for centuries in a variety of ways. It is a popular ingredient in lip balms, lipsticks, and other cosmetics. But is it really good for your lips? Let’s take a look at the benefits of using beeswax on your lips.
What are the Benefits of Beeswax?
Beeswax has many beneficial properties that make it an ideal ingredient for lip care products. It is naturally antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, which helps to keep lips healthy and free from infection. It also acts as a natural moisturizer, helping to keep lips soft and hydrated. Additionally, beeswax forms a protective barrier on the skin that locks in moisture while also providing protection from environmental pollutants.
How Does Beeswax Work?
Beeswax works by forming a protective layer on the surface of the skin that helps to lock in moisture while also providing protection from environmental pollutants. This layer helps to keep lips hydrated and prevents them from becoming dry or cracked. Additionally, beeswax contains natural antioxidants that can help protect against damage caused by free radicals.
Is Beeswax Safe for Your Lips?
Yes, beeswax is generally considered safe for use on the lips. It is non-toxic and non-irritating, so it won’t cause any adverse reactions when applied topically. However, it is important to note that some people may be allergic to bee products, so it’s always best to do a patch test before using any product containing beeswax on your lips.
Conclusion
Overall, beeswax can be an excellent choice for keeping your lips healthy and hydrated. It forms a protective barrier on the skin that locks in moisture while also providing protection from environmental pollutants. Additionally, its natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help to keep lips healthy and free from infection. However, it’s important to note that some people may be allergic to bee products so always do a patch test before using any product containing beeswax on your lips.
