The cosmetics are colored w/ fruit, vegetable, cocoa, and tea pigments, so your skin reaps the benefits of the antioxidants from those. 100% Pure is my favorite cosmetics line…it doesn’t use any weird, gross chemicals (with the exception of mica in some of the products,) but their commitment to purity is 2nd to none that I’ve found.

I consider myself to be a lip balm connoisseur because I have literally tried over 30 kinds of lip balm. I prefer either minty or fruity lip balms, so when I heard that the Made from Earth Spearmint and Blueberry Balm was really minty, I had to try it! If this lip balm was so thick and waxy, it would be one of the best. I love it because it is made with natural ingredients, and because it is nice and minty which makes your lips tingle. Unfortunately, it is very thick and waxy and it doesn't glide on my lips like other lip balms do. That is my only complaint. I would recommend it to others to try because I am a little picky when it comes to lip products, so it might just be me.
