Advantages: Delicious, nutritious, and does what ALL other lip balms should - protects your lips from the sun

Disadvantages: None whatsoever

I find it strange how the need to protect your lips from the sun is widely overlooked, even though most women nowadays who are averagely consciencious about anti-aging products would consider a moisturizer with SPF in it a pretty standard part of their skin routine. So why not protect your lips, where the skin is even more delicate and sensitive?

What has always bothered me up until now is the apparent necessity to apply potentially harmful synthetic chemicals where, let's face it, they're essentially going to get eaten! Thankfully, this lip balm is safe and edible, as the UV filter is a derivative of cinnamon, a relatively new ingredient on the alternative skincare market but one which has been accredited quite widely on the web.

It also doubles as a light lip gloss but doesn't have any of the stickiness that is so common with glosses.

Green People are quality manufacturers of organic, cruelty-free skin products and their approach is responsible, open and informative. They are registered or certified by at least six of the main ethical bodies such as the Vegan Society, Fair Trade and Non-GM Food, so you can enjoy this product guilt-free!

Your first order is delivered free of charge so at £2.92 this really is competitively priced.

Sun protection has never tasted so good (and will hopefully provide a minty antidote to the cheesy residue caused by this review - sorry folks!)

Summary: Green People to the rescue!
