Vegan Lip Balm Project
Making vegan lip balm is easy with candelilla wax! It’s a plant-based product that has a firm and glossy consistency. We paired it with luxurious cocoa butter, coconut oil, and jojoba oil. The balm is also uncolored and unscented, which makes it great for sensitive skin.
You can use it during the day and apply a heavier layer at night to act as a hydrating lip mask.
