Over the years, there have been many novelty coffee lip balm products that have been produced, but of the scents and flavors included in most salves are usually synthetic. Pinwheel is a company out of the UK that specializes in making handmade lip balms, and is now using real coffee oil in the making of flavors like Americano, Mocha and Latte.
Alongside a range of nourishing ingredients like cocoa butter, sweet almond oil, British beeswax and Vitamin E, each coffee-based lip balm from Pinwheel uses roasted coffee arabica seed oil to create authentic coffee flavors and aromas. Although real food ingredients are used in the making of these lip balms, consumers are reminded that the cosmetics are not edible.
As well as selling each coffee lip balm flavor individually, Pinwheel also bundles the trio into a Coffee Lover's Lip Balm Gift Set.
