Beauty brand Eco Lips has released a new line of ethically sourced lip care products.
The five Brazilian Lip Tints (US$5.49 each) are said to be blended with Fair Trade-certified babaçu and pracaxi oils, which can both be found in the Amazon rainforest, South America, and are hailed for their skin-benefitting properties.
Cupuaçu butter has also been harnessed, native to the Brazilian Amazon, to nourish, moisturise and protect lips.
Meanwhile, the products are said to leave a satin finish that is suitable for everyday use.
“We are really excited about this new line which celebrates a women’s natural, true essence, being authentic while courageously pursuing passions with heart and soul,” said the brand’s VP Marketing Jane Merten.
“This is the reasoning behind the names of the colours, Blessed, Blissful, Bold, Brave and Brazen.”
She added: “We understand that cosmetics aren’t a top priority for the consumer right now, but she will start to look for ways to express her femininity and passions again, and swiping on a lip tint can work wonders.”
The five colours range from a rouge pink shade to a dusty pink and sienna.
