| Verdict | Vegan lip balm from the heritage Rio brand. Portable, affordable, pretty. | Natura's Amazonian lip balm — and one of the most thoughtfully sourced lip products in any beauty origin. The hero ingredient is cocoa butter (Theobroma cacao) harvested through Natura's Amazonia community partnerships in Pará state, where indigenous cooperatives sustainably source cacau pods from native trees. The butter provides deep occlusive nourishment, castor oil and rice bran wax form the balm structure, and tomato fruit extract delivers lycopene antioxidants. The Ekos line is Natura's sustainability flagship: B Corp certified, Leaping Bunny certified, 100% vegan, packaging from recycled or renewable materials. At $12 for 3.6g, it's a small tube but the concentration is high and a little goes far. The subtle cocoa scent is from the real ingredient, not added fragrance. |
