Almost 200 million plastic lip balm tubes are binned every year and the vast majority are never recycled. So, we think lips need a shake-up.

We've created a range dedicated to doing good; for the planet, for people and of course, for your lips.

Do good for your lips – With a hint of peppermint, Sugarplum is our tinted lip balm designed to nourish and hydrate your lips with cocoa butter alongside castor seed, moringa and jojoba oils. These heavy-moisture-hitters lock in hydration and leave your lips silky smooth, for longer. On application of our lip balms, 94% of testers found an immediate improvement in the appearance of dry lips! Sugarplum is so good, you'll never lose the tube.

Do good for the planet – plastic-free, home compostable packaging (yes, the tube!).

Do good for people - Carefully crafted with luxurious fairly traded sustainable ingredients from Rwanda, Ghana and Samoa to help support farming cooperatives (predominantly women owned) in these regions. Direct trade ensures that local growers receive stable prices and, reliable income which means in turn they are better able to look after their community and their environment.

Gorgeous but so, so drying after a bit

I love the color of this - it's so beautiful and as soon as I use up my Sugarplum balm I'm about to trek to Lush or somewhere and try to find a shade match, because I love it that much. Unfortunately, the formula of this just isn't amazing and I find it so drying, especially after half an hour I feel like if there was any moisture in my lips it gets sucked out. I got it as a Christmas present and wanted to love it so badly, but this just isn't it. Ethique does amazing other products, I just won't be buying this one again.

Horrible

I just bought this from the pharmacy here in Nz and it is nasty and flaky and the push up tube is terrible! Never again!

Kia ora Kaylene,

Thanks so much for taking the time to review our product, although I'm sorry to hear you didn't have a great experience with this one. This doesn't sound like the Sugarplum we know and love!

May I ask where you purchased this one from and when?

Please flick us an email at hello@ethique.com with your delivery details as we'd love to send you out a replacement lip balm to make up for this.

Perfect pigment

This is a generously sized balm that is fairly pigmented. I'd compare it to Clinique Almost Lipstick, maybe slightly less. The texture is grainier and with less slip than most balms. I find I need to warm it up a little on my skin to get it to spread well. However, I think the colour is great, it wears well, and I don't think about it once it's been applied. The true test of a comfortable balm! It doesn't feel filmy or greasy. It feels completely natural.
