Three Benefits of the Ingredients Used:
1. Coconut Oil
Deeply cleanses and moisturizes the skin due to its high lauric acid content. It has antibacterial and anti-fungal properties that help keep skin clear and healthy.
2. Bees Wax
Packed with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, beeswax can soothe and heal chapped or cracked lips. Beeswax also creates a protective barrier that helps lock in moisture
3. Cocoa Butter
Highly moisturizing and rich in fatty acids, cocoa butter helps improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks. It forms a protective barrier to lock in moisture.
