Thank Me Later Natural Lip Balm Mint & Cucumber Official Retailer. Fast delivery in the Netherlands, Belgium & Luxembourg

This nourishing lip balm is developed based on coconut oil and enriched with a mix of plant oils, butters, and waxes that help protect your lips from drying out. Coconut oil has a moisturizing effect on your lips. It combines the hydrating properties of coconut oil with the nourishing properties of shea butter and beeswax. The lip balm is vegan, so no beeswax has been used. Candelilla wax is slightly harder than beeswax but softer and can be perfectly used as a plant-based (vegan) substitute for beeswax. Another wax is odorless wax, which is Oryza Sativa Cera. This is obtained from rice bran. It has skin-soothing properties, especially for dry lips.

The lip balm also contains SPF 25, which protects the lips from UVA and UVB rays. The lip balm nourishes, hydrates, and soothes the lips. Did you know that some lip balms contain additives such as synthetic colorants made from coal tar, paraffin for moisture retention, and artificial wax? Studies show that some of these substances contain heavy metal salts, which can be harmful to health and even carcinogenic.

How to use

Apply generously to the lips and reapply every two hours, especially when exposed to the sun.

• COCOS NUCIFERA OIL
Coconut oil is a nourishing ingredient that increases elasticity for soft lips and soothes and hydrates the lips. Is coconut oil good for your lips? Coconut oil tastes great, is hypoallergenic, and healthy for cooking, but it is also a good remedy for dry lips. Due to its unique composition, it is absorbed much better by the skin than other oils.

• ZINC OXIDE
UVA and UVB filters. Zinc oxide is a natural active ingredient in many sunscreens. The particles of this zinc oxide are larger (non-nano) than in regular sunscreens, so they cannot enter the bloodstream through the skin and are completely safe. It provides good protection against UVA and UVB radiation, and this zinc oxide is uncoated. Zinc oxide can be used as one of the few as the only filter in a sunscreen because it is allowed in higher concentrations. The filter is very photostable.

• RICINUS COMMUNIS SEED OIL
Castor oil, also known as castor oil, is a unique vegetable oil. It purifies the pores of bacteria, and castor oil has purifying properties thanks to ricinoleic acid. As a result, it helps the skin look cool. Additionally, castor oil supports the skin's healing ability. Because its molecules have a small mass, the oil can easily penetrate deeper skin layers. It makes the skin soft and smooth and provides extra shine.

• PRUNUS ARMENIACA KERNEL OIL
Apricot kernel oil contains nourishing properties and is rich in vitamins A & E. It prevents excessive moisture loss and hydrates, softens, and improves the flexibility of the lips. Apricot kernel oil is a soothing treatment for sensitive and irritated lips. It is rich in vitamins A and E. The non-irritating, nourishing oil makes the facial skin smooth and silky in no time. Apricot kernel oil provides relief from irritation, redness, and flaking while also delivering vitamins, antioxidants, and fatty acids to the deeper skin layers. Apricot kernel oil is a long-lasting moisturizer and has a hydrating effect on the lips. It contains vitamin E: with moisturizing and soothing properties, it protects the skin against premature aging and combats excess free radicals.

• CANDELILLA CERA
Vegan alternative to beeswax. It is a plant-based wax derived from the leaves of North Mexican candelilla shrubs (Euphorbia cerifera and Euphorbia antisyphilitica). Like other waxes, it is used to stabilize products and give body, or in the case of the lip balm, to hold the formula together. It has a melting point of around 70°C and has a high gloss, making it a good choice for lip products.

• ORYZA SATIVA CERA
Rice bran wax provides a silky skin feel and reduces the stickiness of emulsions. It is added to balms and butters to give consistency, improve stability at high temperatures, and provide a matte appearance. It is a nice substitute for beeswax in vegan products.

• HELIANTHUS ANNUUS SEED OIL
Sunflower oil is extracted from sunflower seeds and is therefore a plant-based product. Because sunflower oil has a high content of linoleic acid and a relatively low content of saturated, long-chain fatty acids, it is a light and mildly nourishing oil. The content of cell-protecting tocopherol not only has anti-inflammatory properties but also protects skin lipids from oxidation and positively affects the oil's absorption capacity. Therefore, we like to use it in this lip balm. It has a barrier-enhancing and regenerating effect.

• ALOE BARBADENSIS LEAF EXTRACT
Aloe Vera is a succulent plant with thick, pointed leaves. There are about 300 different species of Aloe Vera plants, and they all have medicinal properties. Rich composition and powerful action Aloe Vera contains numerous nutrients, minerals, and vitamins, including A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C, and E, folic acid, and niacin.
