The Body Shop® difference: Last year over 5 million people were newly infected with HIV. More than half were aged between 15 and 24. Raising awareness of how HIV is transmitted is one of the best ways we can help stop the epidemic. By empowering young people to fight stigma, break taboos and smash ignorance we can change attitudes—and help save lives. Together with MTV, we’re working to raise awareness amongst young people about HIV and AIDS with our “Get Lippy, Prevent HIV” campaign. Proceeds from the sale of every Guarana Lip Butter go to MTV’s Staying Alive Foundation, which supports young people and youth groups to become involved in HIV and AIDS awareness, education and prevention campaigns.

Guarana extract

Paulinia cupana seed extract, also known as guarana extract restricts capillaries and reduces dark circles.

Shea butter

Moisturizes and helps soften the skin. Also provides a rural community of women with regular work and income.

Organic beeswax

Moisturizes and helps to condition dry skin, especially on your lips and around the fingernail beds. Acts as a barrier that helps to seal in moisture. Helps to keep product texture consistent when used over time. Plays a part in protecting and preserving the forest as well as providing necessary income for the beekeepers, an increasing number of which are now women.

Exfoliate the lips using The Body Shop make-up Lipscuff before applying Coconut Lip Butter to moisturize.

Apply to the lips with your fingertip, as often as required.

Community Trade Information

Shea butter is one of nature's great moisturizers. Ghanaian women have used it for centuries to protect their skin from the dry Saharan winds. So who better to buy ours from than the Tungteiya Shea Butter Association, Northern Ghana. An association of around 400 women from 10 villages, we ensure a fair price for their product. Since trading with The Body Shop the women have been able to dramatically change their lives with water pipes and wells saving hours of water collecting, better housing, medical care, food, and self esteem. Importantly, they are also able to give their children, particularly their daughters, the chance to go to school.

Our Community Trade beeswax is sourced from the Adamaoua Region of Northern Cameroon, through an organization called Guide d'Espoir (Guide for Hope).
