Our take
Why We Trust This Brand
A nine-ingredient food-grade oil-and-butter stick with a public INCI is the opposite of a black box; it is Leaping Bunny and PETA certified, and the founder owns 100%.
What's inside
Ingredients & Safety
Entirely plant oils, butters, and waxes — a castor-oil and kokum-butter base with sunflower, hemp, plum-seed, elderberry, vitamin E, and neem — plus mineral color. No synthetic fillers, fragrance, or preservative system in the anhydrous stick.
