Organic Lip Balms Are the Perfect Solution for Preventing Dry, Flakey Lips (2025)

Want to keep things simple? Then swipe this “naked” lip balm on your lips. This lip balm, made by household favorite Dr. Bronner’s, is made with organic beeswax and organic jojoba, avocado, and hemp oils to keep lips super soft.

This organic lip balm is so popular that the other multipacks and individual tubes are sold out across retailers, including The Vitamin Shoppe. But TBH, we don't hate this because if you're anything like us, you always lose your lip balm or need to keep one tube on your vanity, bedside table, purse, workbag, desk, and jacket pocket.

Amazon reviewers consider it the best organic lip balm they've ever used. In fact, it's so fantastic that one reviewer has been loyally using this product for five years, and has zero plans on using another lip balm in the future.

Others appreciate the subtle scent and apply it twice a day — once in the morning, five minutes before applying makeup, and once before bed. “It makes them perfectly plump and soft by the time I apply my other products,” says their 5-star review. “This is a fantastic product and would definitely re-purchase and recommend it to everyone.”

Pro tip: You can also use these for nourishing dry cuticles and other rough patches on your body.

This 100% natural and organic lip balm from eos includes their ultra-moisturizing lip balm sticks. Each tube of these vanilla-scented lip balms contains nothing but the best 100% natural shea butter, coconut oil, and jojoba oil to give your pucker a surge of comforting hydration.

And don’t just take our word for it — hundreds of Amazon and Ulta reviewers say it transformed their chapped lips. “Use this in the a.m. and p.m. every day and you can skip a lip scrub,” says one 5-star Ulta review. “I use it as a lipstick primer in the morning and a conditioner at night. If it’s cold outside, I’ll apply it during the day a couple of times, but it works waaay better than ChapStick.”

Plus, the duo is less than $6 — a definite thumbs-up for us.

If you’re a purist with your clean beauty products, this gel-textured organic lip balm needs to be at the top of your list.

It has the refreshingly lightweight feel of a hydrating serum, thanks to its heavy squalane and hyaluronic acid content, which work hand in hand to hydrate and moisturize. But once you spread it on your lips, it has a buttery-smooth glide that quickly absorbs for a nonstick feel and an instant plump look, which you can thank the wakame algae in this product for.

This award-winning organic lip balm earned more than 800 five-star reviews on Biossance because it’s truly incredible at keeping lips moist and happy. “I’ve had so many people ask about the pink tube I keep on me at all times, and I’m so happy to tell them it’s a lip balm that’s clean, vegan, and most of all, effective,” says one online reviewer.

This lip balm uses 100% natural, USDA-certified organic ingredients like coconut oil, avocado oil, shea butter, and cocoa butter. Just one coat of this delectable formula leaves your lips instantly hydrated, soft, and supple. Plus, its fragrance-free formula makes it an especially great pick for sensitive skin.

One 50-something Amazon reviewer says this organic lip balm keeps their lips healthy and soft, despite the grueling cold and windy Alaskan weather. “I have been on a quest for the perfect lip balm for almost 50 years! I think I’ve finally found it. My lips have never been so healthy,” says their 5-star review.

There are also eight tinted versions you'll love just as much.

Thousands of Amazon reviewers are also keen on using this incredible organic lip balm. One reviewer buys multiples to keep in her purse, desk, and bathroom so her lips are always hydrated. “If you can keep them on your lips long enough, they just kind of sink in, and the glossy texture fades down. I love putting them on before I do my lipstick to get a little hydration and then directly after for a glossy effect,” says their 5-star review.

Look, all of these organic lip balms smell incredible, but this trio from Kind Lips has the most enticing flavors. For example, Sweet Mint is made with organic peppermint oil for a light and refreshing tingle. And while we love all things vanilla (more on that in the next slide), Kind Lips created a unique vanilla by mixing in lemon zest that will wearers dreaming of summers in Capri even during the brisker months. A combo made in lip balm heaven, mint refreshes and rejuvenates lips with an ever-so-slight sweet finish. You’ll want one for your pocket, your center console, and your kissing partner.

The most unique flavor in this set is undoubtedly Georgia Peach, a lip balm scent I've never come across in my beauty journalism career.

Online reviewers also love it! To quote a 5-star Amazon review, “Glides on so softly. I love the ingredients that are good for you. Last a very long time. I don't have to put it on and put it on and put it on throughout the day. I am very very happy with this product and would highly recommend it.”

This delicious lip balm is more hydrating than a glass of water, all thanks to honey: This kitchen-cabinet staple is tasty, but it's also known for its moisturizing and nourishing properties to keep chapped lips and dryness at bay all year long.

Farmacy's balm also takes things a step further — not only does it boast a Clean at Sephora-approved formula, but it received their Planet Positive seal, too.

One Sephora reviewer called this organic lip balm a 10/10 product because it applies smoothly, leaves behind a nice glossy finish, and the fragrance is light. “I stand by this lip balm so firmly. I tend to have dry lips, and with most lip balms I find myself reapplying hourly. I use this lip balm a few times throughout the day and before bed, and I constantly have plump, moisturized lips,” says their 5-star review.

All featured organic lip balms make for an excellent stocking stuffer or cheap beauty gift, but for just under $10, your loved one can receive six organic balms — and TBH, we're jealous. Not only will your loved one get to swipe on a mix of flavors, such as Bing Cherry and Creamy Coconut, but this set is incredibly easy on your wallet: Each lip balm only costs around $1.66 in this six-pack, versus almost $2.24 per balm if you purchased the brand's four-pack instead.

With over 11,000 online reviews, it's no wonder Amazon shoppers can't get enough of these USDA organic lip balms. “I love how long-lasting this lip balm is. Its formula stays put for hours, even through sips of coffee or light snacking. I've noticed a significant improvement in the overall condition of my lips since incorporating this lip balm into my routine,” says a 5-star Amazon review.

Who says sun protection is just for the face and body? Dermatologists previously told us that we shouldn't compromise on sun safety for our delicate lips and this eos organic lip balm is the perfect sun-safe solution.

Not only is it made with a blend of ultra-hydrating seed butter and nourishing fruit oils, but it also utilizes a mineral SPF to help protect the lips from UVA and UVB solar rays. It also contains organic strawberries for extra flavor.

If there's anything we love more than organic products, it's multi-use organic products. This natural, tinted lip balm from Olio E Osso is handmade in small batches in Portland, Oregon, and it can double as blush for a rosy glow on the go.

We love that it's infused with nourishing olive and shea oils and natural beeswax to add a touch of hydration and a healthy French melon-inspired tint to your cheeks. Speaking of the gorgeous color, one Amazon reviewer says it's even prettier than the shades in the popular $38 Dior Lip Addict Lip Glow.

Other reviewers appreciate that it adds a sheer glow it adds to their cheeks and lips. “It looks very natural — kind of like a post-workout flush. The first day I wore it, someone stopped to say I had wonderful skin and was glowing,” says one 5-star review.

If you're looking for more variety in your life, look no further. This set of three organic lip balms from Eco Lips (a certified B-corp!) comes in various refreshing flavors like lemon-lime, sweet mint, and superfruit.

But that's not the only reason why we're adding this pack to our carts: These balms ditch the red flags and opt for more naturally nourishing ingredients like candelilla wax and organic versions of cocoa butter and coconut oil.

With nearly 1,200 five-star Amazon reviews, we’re not the only ones impressed by this organic lip balm. “I’ve been using Eco Lips for years now [and] they’re worth every cent. They glide on, [and] not like a glue stick at all. My Eco Lips are something that I have to have in my pocket leaving the house,” says one enthusiastic reviewer.

This luxuriously moisturizing lip balm is one of the best alternatives for people who hate the drying feel of conventional lipsticks but still want a touch of pigment.

It’s available in eight different sheer — yet buildable — color options. Each stick is formulated with hydrating shea butter, rosehip seed oil, and sea succulent extract for a smooth, tinted pout.

Online reviewers say it has a long-lasting formula and great color payoff that adds a gorgeous flush to their lips and cheeks. This moisture-boosting organic lip balm even boasts a Clean at Sephora badge, indicating it’s truly free of problematic ingredients.

Speaking of Sephora, one reviewer says they would give this product a 6-star rating if possible because it is hydrating perfection.

“The colors are sheer but buildable and leave a not-too-glossy, not-too-matte Goldilocks finish. They also wear down to a subtle tint, [with] no weird rings or uneven color. Probably the only lip product I will purchase ever again,” says their glowing review.

Don’t be put off by the price of this balm — the palm-sized tin can be used for more than just lips. Add it to your cuticles, elbows, and any other dry spots that are starved for moisture. The certified organic shea butter formula has earned this L’Occitane product a loyal following for its healing properties.

One reviewer and his wife highly recommend using this multipurpose beauty lifesaver. He says his wife has used it as a lip balm for chapped lips and to help heal their dry skin. It's so safe and gentle that when they were in a pinch, they applied it to their daughter's diaper rash, and it effectively helps prevent skin rashes and mosquito bites.

Good news: The individual cactus-shaped organic lip balm may be out of stock at Ulta, but Walmart has a duo where you get a second moisturizer for just $1.50 more. So you can keep one at home and the other in your bag or backpack.

This all-natural lip balm totally deserves a spot in your lip care routine, but not just for its adorable packaging. This balm skips out on the toxins and uses only high-quality coconut and sweet almond oils to give your lips a softer, smoother feel. Plus, it also has vitamin E, an essential antioxidant for happier, healthier skin.

It boasts an impressive online rating; it amassed a 4.9-star average from almost 20 Walmart reviewers, and one happy customer can’t stop using this nonsticky lip balm because it’s more effective than using a lip scrub to soften their pout. “This is the one product I’ve been able to use that actually does seem to help with the dryness without leaving a ton of buildup,” says their Ulta review.

This sweet and fruity lip balm not only smells (and honestly, tastes) delectable, but it's also as au naturale as it gets: It's made with purified watermelon extract, rosehip, jojoba oil, and sweet almond oils to give your lips the ultimate organic treatment.

To get a little deeper into the science of it, fatty acids work together to soften your lips’ texture, while antioxidants give your kisser the extra TLC it needs to repair and revive your once-smooth feel.

Several Amazon reviewers suggest using this organic lip balm to prevent dry, cracked lips during the winter. One Amazon reviewer appreciates the heavy-duty moisture and shine it provides during dry and hot weather in Austin, Texas, and the Mojave Desert in California. To quote their 5-star review: “Luxurious, glossy, simple. This is my keep in my bag at all times balm because I know that it’s dependable and lovely.”
