Introducing Butter Me Up: A Closer Look at Lipcare

by Georgia Bogert on Aug 31, 2025
Introducing Butter Me Up: A Closer Look at Lipcare

When we think about skincare, lips often get left out of the conversation. But they shouldn’t. The skin on your lips is thinner and more delicate than the rest of your body, with no oil glands to keep them naturally moisturized. That means they rely entirely on what you put on them for protection and hydration.

Factor in daily exposure to sun, wind, dry air, and seasonal shifts, and it’s easy to see why lips are one of the first areas to feel dry, tight, or chapped. Regular lip care isn’t just about comfort—it’s about maintaining the health and integrity of this vulnerable skin.

That’s the idea behind Butter Me Up, our new lip balm created to replenish, protect, and strengthen lips with a thoughtful blend of natural butters, oils, and waxes.

Why Lip Balm Needs More Than Just Wax

Most conventional lip balms rely heavily on waxes and synthetic emollients. While these can create a temporary barrier, they don’t actually deliver the nutrients and hydration lips need to repair themselves. Butter Me Up was formulated differently, combining barrier support with deep nourishment.

  • Shea & Cocoa Butters: Both rich in fatty acids and vitamins, these butters help repair damaged skin, improve elasticity, and lock in lasting hydration.

  • Organic Beeswax: Provides a breathable shield against harsh conditions, helping to prevent moisture loss.

  • Apricot Kernel, Avocado, Marula & Castor Oils: Each brings its own profile of vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids—working together to soften, smooth, and support healthy skin function.

  • Vitamin E: A protective antioxidant that helps combat free radical damage while supporting healing.

Why Your Lips Need Daily Care

Because lips lack the sebaceous (oil) glands found elsewhere on your skin, they can’t produce their own protective oils. This makes them especially vulnerable to dehydration, irritation, and environmental stressors. A high-quality lip balm isn’t just for emergencies when lips are already chapped—it’s a daily preventive step, like moisturizer for your face.

Consistent use can:

  • Reduce flaking and dryness.

  • Maintain a healthy skin barrier.

  • Prevent premature aging around the lip area (fine lines are often linked to chronic dehydration and sun exposure).

A Refreshing, Natural Finish

Butter Me Up isn’t flavored with synthetic fragrance—just pure essential oils. Peppermint and spearmint create a refreshing, cooling effect, while vanilla and lime add a subtle balance of sweetness and brightness. The result is clean, natural, and uplifting without overpowering.

Butter Yourself Up!

Your lips deserve the same care as the rest of your skin. With its blend of nutrient-rich butters, oils, and protective beeswax, Butter Me Up goes beyond surface-level relief to keep lips hydrated, resilient, and healthy.

It’s skincare, made simple—for the part of your skin that often needs it most.
