Congrats to Sarah for winning this giveaway! Thank you to everyone who entered and to the giveaway sponsor for offering this awesome prize!!

I love lip balm! It serves so many purposes, doesn’t it? It helps keep your lips moisturized, it smells great and it gives them some shine.

Eco Lips has so many lip balms to choose from, it’s insane! These balms range from tinted lip care, specialty lip care and kids balms too. I got to try Vanilla Mint and Coconut. Both of these have become my best friends…they hang out with me all day, until I need to use them. They smell so good! The Vanilla Mint makes my lips tingly (in a good way).

The balm glides on smooth and makes my lips feel so soft. Another bonus about Eco Lips is that they use Organic ingredients. The lip balms are also Cruelty Free, Non GMO and Petroleum Free.

Eco Lips has also started a program called The Cause Balm. This program helps different non profit organizations. You can literally buy a balm and $1 will be donated to your chosen organization (there are 9 different organizations to choose from). How cool is that?

Each of my girls got their own lip balms and fell in love with the names of them. Goodness Grapeness, Tropical Tango Punch and Berry Berry Good Lemonade are the names for the kids lip balms…too cute! Goodness Grapeness smells (and tastes) just like grape bubble gum. Tropical Tango Punch smells like a orange punch …yum! And, Berry Berry Good Lemonade speaks for itself…delicious!

The Eco Lips Story (from their website)-

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.

Having larger than average lips, Steve was continually searching for a better lip 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 had built a specialized private label natural body care company focusing 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.

Much of the growth of their business was due to their top sales representative and entrepreneur, Jim King. Working out of his California office, he founded and grew a successful and environmentally friendly promotional products company called Access Eco. He enjoyed the process of building other peoples’ brands through promotional products, but something was missing.

Jim had a vision of creating a lip balm brand like no other. He became obsessed with lip balm! Jim looked at every lip care brand currently on the market, buying them, one by one, until he had acquired over 200 different samples. From petroleum-based lip care to natural brands, he packed all of these samples and flew to Iowa to meet with Steve about his dream.

Jim and Steve spent hours mulling over a 10-foot conference table layered with what would soon become their competition in the lip balm industry. The goal was to create a brand image and an organic formula that would take market share from petroleum-based lip balm brands.
Voilà! Eco Lips was born! Jim and Steve swiftly brought the product to market and began raising awareness of the importance of pesticide-free products.

Today, Eco Lips lip balm is handcrafted in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. With the mission of satisfying the needs of every customer, Eco Lips has been first to market with several innovative organic lip care products and packages. With environmental initiatives in place, a focused marketing and sales strategy, award winning packaging, and a relaxed, yet productive work environment, Eco Lips is making its way around the world, one set of lips at a time.
