Ecolips Unboxing & Review

In a world that is full of artificial this and fake that, it’s hard to find skincare that is both good quality, as well as good for you and good for the environment.  When I was offered the opportunity to review Ecolips, being the lip balm freak I am, I jumped at the opportunity.

About Ecolips:

Like so many great American business stories, ours started small.

In the early 1990s, Andrea Danielson began brewing small batches of natural lip balm in her kitchen for her friends and family. She took great care in handcrafting the balm and packaging it in small amber glass jars to preserve the freshness of the pure ingredients. Andrea didn’t realize that by giving a sample of her natural lip creation to Steve Shriver her life would be changed forever.

Steve had larger-than-life lips, and was always searching for a better balm. When Steve met Andrea in 1995, he immediately fell in love with the lip balm, and moments later he also fell in love with Andrea. They were married in 1997 and Steve, a lifetime entrepreneur, quickly spent Andrea’s life savings on ingredients and packaging for the couple’s first product, Hemp Lip Buzz.

By 2003, Steve and Andrea built a specialized private label natural body care company focused on making high quality products for many other successful brands. Their company rapidly became a leading natural body care manufacturer in the Natural Products industry.

Their top sales rep, Jim King, also had a love for lip balm, and had a vision for creating a lip balm brand like no other. Together, the team pivoted from making products for other companies to making their own. Eco Lips had arrived.

I love the variety of different products Ecolips carries.  Everything from lip balms, to lip scrubs, to facial serum, all free of dyes and chemicals.  The scents are light and enjoyable, and I love that you can practically eat the products.

They have two different types of lip scrubs – Vanilla Bean and Brown Sugar.  The instructions are super simple – simply apply the scrub on your lips, rub your lips together, and lick the excess product off your lips.  Yes, that is in the instructions on the back of the scrubs – they encourage you to lick the remainder off.  How cool is that?

I love their cute, compact packaging.  It makes it super easy to throw in your bag and carry anywhere, especially since they have a cute little pouch you can put all their goodies in as well!

Whether it is summertime or winter is right around the corner, Ecolips products are for year round use.  They even have a lone of all natural bug repellants for those summer days out by the pool.
