So many of us know all too well that cold sores and fever blisters are a part of life. But there really hasn't been a clean and organic fever blister (or cold sore) lip balm that's safe and effective... until now!
If you take a look at common medicated lip balms, you’ll see a variety of ingredients that can be irritating to lips that are already sore and irritated due to the presence of cold sores or fever blisters.
Those ingredients might include things like:
- Petrolatum and petroleum
- Artificial colors
- Preservatives
- Mineral oil
That’s why when you’re looking for a fever blister lip balm, you’ll want to note the active ingredient, which in this case is menthol, and then look at what else is being used to help soothe.
With Earth Mama’s new Medicated Herbal Lip Balm, you’ll find herbal ingredients like:
- Organic echinacea root
- Organic licorice root
- Organic chamomile
- Organic St. John’s wort
All of these safe ingredients have been traditionally used for centuries to soothe and comfort tender lips. So, it makes sense that you consider these ingredients when choosing a medicated lip balm that’s right for you.
Also, what goes on your lips will inevitably go in your mouth. So, it’s important to choose a product that is made with that in mind. You want ingredients that are safe to go in (in the small amounts that might make it into your mouth, of course) as well as on. That’s something Earth Mama always considers when formulating products.
