Burt's Bees manufactures products with natural ingredients, [8] using minimal processing, such as distillation/condensation, extraction/steamed distillation/pressure cooking, and hydrolysis, to maintain the purity of ingredients. [9] In addition, every product has a "natural bar" which gives a percentage of natural ingredients in that product, often with detailed ingredient descriptions. [10] History [ edit ] 1984–1989: Founding [ edit ] Burt's Bees Hand Salve, Sep 2012 Burt’s Bees’ lip balm is a case study in “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it." It’s one of the first products Burt’s Bees founders Burt Shavitz and Roxanne Quimby made in 1991, and there’s a good chance this golden tube of zingy lip balm was one of the first things you ever bought with your own money. The simple, all-natural formula hasn’t really changed over the past 30 years, either: The best Burt’s Bees lip balms all contain the brand’s signature, responsibly sourced beeswax, a natural emollient that works to condition dry lips and retain moisture. But the company has since rolled out a few updates to the original lip balm, including equally nourishing (and affordable) lip tints, shimmers, and treatments.

Burt's Bees is an American multinational personal care product company. The company is a subsidiary of Clorox that describes itself as an " Earth-friendly, Natural Personal Care Company" [6] If you like making homemade items using beeswax, you should also try my Reusable Beeswax Wraps and these Simple DIY Beeswax Candles.

All-natural? Absolutely. Vegan? Nope. Obviously, there’s beeswax in Burt's Bees products, but lanolin is also animal-derived — it’s secreted by the oil glands of wool-bearing animals, and it’s included in lots of cosmetics because of its emollient properties. Keep this in mind if purchasing vegan products is important for you. (That said, Burt’s Bees is Leaping Bunny-certified, since they’re cruelty-free and don’t test on animals.) Burt Shavitz and Roxanne Quimby created Burt’s Bees in the wild of Maine, USA in the early 1980s after leaving their hectic city lives to be at one with nature. Together, they got friendly with some bees and started to jar up their beeswax. Before you knew it, their beeswax was sold worldwide – in lip balms, hand creams and more. Burt & Roxanne’s mission was clear: to make accessible skin care products, using only the best, natural ingredients that are good for your skin. Setting the Natural Standard – Burt's Bees".
