It all began in a high school engineering classroom. Avery Shannon was 18 at the time (now 23), when he set out on the journey to craft a lip balm that was unlike the rest. He was inspired to create his own lip balm after taking a harsh acne medication, which completely dried out his skin. Shannon wanted to avoid the chemical induced lip balm market, thus creating an organic lip balm that was one of a kind. During the course of his last year in high school, Shannon spent over 12 months trying to formulate the ideal balm. The smooth, long lasting, and creamy texture of his lip balm puts every hand poured tube above the rest. Through continuous trial and error he truly believes that his formula is one of a kind. During his formulation process, he had to scrap over 3,000 lip balm tubes to achieve the formula he has today. His commitment and love for organic skincare radiates through each individual tube of lip balm.Making the perfect lip balm for Shannon isn't simply a business... It's a passion and a lifestyle he will cherish forever.

I originally received this lip balm in a birthday box! Personally im not too big into lip care but this product was so good that i actually managed to finish a lip balm for the first time! Great formula that never disappoints, so much so that im ordering a 3 pack before i move to college cuz i just dont trust any other brand.
Amazing. Website is well made, makes it easy to browse and purchase. The prices are unbeatable. Start to finish I can’t say a single negative thing about this company

This is absolutely my most favorite lip balm EVER.
I truly wish they’d bring back the Vanilla Chai…. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
But the delivery is fast… and I haven’t found a “flavor “ I don’t like.
I received one as a gift. I was so excited cause I finally found something I didn't break out from. The scents are not overbearing, and it goes on smooth. Love each one I have tried!
Only lip balm I will use. I love the natural ingredients, the oval shape of the container, and the flavors. The shipping is super fast and the little bag they come in is very convenient.
Love the canvas bag packaging! The pineapple coconut flavor is my favorite. I also love the smooth, healing texture. This is the best lip balm I ever used.
Balm Standard is my all time favorite chapstick! I have one in my purse, my gym bag, diaper bag, and my office. This year I’m gifting one to each of my sons teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week and to each of my aunts for Mothers Day☺️.
I love the product but the delivery is incredibly slow. I still have not received my lip balms.
I live in Westlake Village, CA., U.S.A.

Hi Donna,
First off, thank you so much for the purchase. It looks like your order was shipped the same day you ordered. However, you needed the products shipped to Zambia. When we ship overseas the shipments tend to take a little longer. Please keep this in mind!
Thank you.
