Combo Beeswax Balm (Goop) and Water Based Lotion

This all good set consists of a balm/salve they call "Guop" and a water glycerin based product, lotion with Lemongrass flavor, both made in the USA. I liked "gup". This is a relatively solid beeswax balm in a 1 ounce jar. The texture was smooth and easy to apply, running a (clean) finger across the surface to pick up some of the balm. The ingredients are excellent and I love that they use extra virgin olive oil instead of sunflower or other cheaper oils. It smells like lavender but the smell wasn't overpowering, just a light floral scent. However, essential oils can irritate sensitive skin. The lotion is enough. Water-based lotions are more easily absorbed than balms, but are less emollient and less effective on dry skin, but are still soothing. I like that it doesn't contain any artificial fragrances. Preservatives are also unavoidable for water-based lotions, but they made non-toxic choices that I'm happy with, namely ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and tocopherol.

Pros
  • Balms & Moisturizers
