The funny thing is, almost two years ago, I started using coconut oil as a lip moisturizer on a whim! I had already been using it as a moisturizer on my face and probably got some on my lips and thought, "Why not? It's natural and if I happen to swallow it, it's actually good for me, too!"
I absolutely love the way it makes my lips feel so soft. And yes, I do tend to lick my lips occasionally so I don't have to worry about swallowing anything harmful.
I have both of Kimberly Snyder's Beauty Detox books and love them, so when I read the article on natural lip balm, I couldn't help but feel smart. Haha! Can you blame me? The woman is very knowledgeable in food and nutrition.
That being said, I don't think I will ever mix up the lip balm recipe on her blog, because I LOVE the plain ol' coconut oil on my lips, nothing more.
