How We Spread the Good - Our 20th Year Anniversary

A word from our CEO, Steve Shriver -- 

I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for being a part of Eco Lips' 20-year journey.  It seems like yesterday we were formulating in our kitchen and filling lip balm tubes from our stovetop with a turkey baster!  Today, I’m proud to say that we have become leaders in the natural product space, our industry, and sustainability as a whole!  Our mission of “spreading the good” in everything we do isn’t over. Our journey is just beginning.

Spreading the Good as a company:

We believe that people, the planet, and profit should be married together in our purpose-driven company. Eco Lips is proud to say that we've been a leader in sustainability since our inception and will continue to lead the way into the future by challenging the status quo and making decisions that will help soften our impact on Mother Earth. We lower greenhouse gas emissions by manufacturing with renewable energy and reduce the amount of single-use plastic that ends up as waste – we don’t give lip service to sustainability; we live it every day.

Spreading the Good as a people:

We are thankful for all of those who have helped us get here: our employees past and present (the dream team!), our customers from all over the world who have purchased and loved our products over the years (thank you!), farmers who allow us to source ingredients ethically and sustainably (you guys rock!), and suppliers who continue to partner with as we relentlessly  search for the ultimate in sustainable ingredients and packaging. Eco Lips helps create impact in the communities we serve through in-kind donations, sponsorships, and volunteering with non-profits that align with our values.

Spreading the good in our products:

We manufacture the best lip balm FOR the world and will continue to do so.  USDA Certified Organic, Fair Trade Certified, Non-GMO Project Verified, Leaping Bunny Certified & Vegan Certified. These third-party certifications and badges make our products stand out from the rest. We’re disrupting the industry with good-for-you products lovingly packaged in plastic-free packaging – the first of its kind. Buying a tube of lip balm goes beyond a simple purchase. You're making a conscious choice to help Spread the Good®.

Spreading the good with purpose:

And we’re not stopping there! We're constantly striving to be the best at what we do. Our goal is and always has been to promote organic farming and normalize organic products through the power of lip balm.  We want organic products to be accessible to all through fair pricing, ethical sourcing, and worldwide distribution. We genuinely hope that you can feel our purpose pushing through into our products and onto your body! We’re changing the world: one lip balm at a time, one bug repellent at a time, and one person at a time.  Good things take time to perfect. We couldn't be prouder to be the first organic lip care brand and look forward to continuing to Spread the Good® to our communities, farmers, and employees, and customers for another 20 years.
