Your lips are one of the most sensitive parts of your body.  They have far more nerve endings than the rest of your skin, yet they lack the usual layers of sweat and body oils that protect your skin from infection, the elements, and chafing.  Without assistance, lips quickly dry and chap.

Your lips need your help.  There are many lip balms available to the public, but most commercial lip balms contain chemicals like petroleum by-products, aluminum salts, preservatives, artificial flavors, and sugar or artificial sweeteners.  Many lip balm manufacturers also use additives like menthol, camphor, phenol or alcohols in their balm.  These additives are used to give lips a “cooling” sensation when you apply balm to them; however, the actual effect of these additives is to dry your lips out even further, which can cause them to crack, peel, or even bleed.

Your lips deserve more.  You deserve more.

That’s why YOUAREWEARE is excited to present our new line of completely edible, organic lip balms.  YOUAREWEARE lip balms naturally replenish and hydrate, smoothing and healing chapped lips until they become their softest, most kissable best.  All of our ingredients are food grade, and we’re committed to using the highest quality, purest ingredients we can find.  After all, if you wouldn’t put it in your mouth, why would you put it on your mouth?

YOUAREWEARE lip balms come in four flavors: Dulcis, a sweet, ylang-scented balm; Fervens, a spicy, anise and ginger-flavored balm; Glacies, a wintry peppermint and tea-tree flavored vegan balm; and Opulens, a rich balm flavored by virgin coconut oil.  Organic ylang ylang essential oil (often used by aromatherapists to relieve tension) gives Dulcis an exotic, elusive floral property, while aromatic organic anise and warming organic ginger essential oils combine to make Fervens fascinatingly stimulating.  Glacies gets its chill from a blend of energizing organic peppermint essential oil and antibacterial organic tea tree essential oil – a must for besieged winter lips!  Glacies also substitutes candelilla wax (a plant wax) for beeswax, rendering this product entirely vegan, and giving it a wonderfully smooth texture.  Finally, Opulens gets its delicious flavor from the addition of organic virgin coconut oil, resulting in a silky, extremely luxurious balm.

YOUAREWEARE is a small, Bellingham-based company.  Unlike Burt’s Bees and other so-called “natural” lip product companies, we are not a division of Chlorox or some other corporation. The YOUAREWEARE line can offer customers the assurance that they are truly buying local – an assurance that more and more customers today are looking for.
