Lip glosses may have lost their “sheen” over the years, but this ‘90s staple is making a comeback. Today’s natural lip glosses, however, are a far cry from their ultra-shiny, Vaseline-esque glossy predecessors. Resembling juicy organic lip sticks and made with luscious natural plant butters, organic fruit pigments, and antioxidant rich botanicals, it’s hard not to fall in love with a good natural lip gloss.
Conventional lip glosses are made a bit differently than true organic lip glosses. A conventional lip gloss goes on smooth because of industrial by-products, petroleum jelly, and mineral oils. While some drugstore lip glosses may smell fantastic and come in a variety of stunning colors, those fragrances and colors are often synthetically derived and do nothing to benefit your skin.
Of course, you don’t have to give up the bright colors and luscious textures of your favorite lip gloss when you switch to a natural formula. Rest assured that you can still have all of the shine, tastes + scents, and vibrant colors with an organic lip gloss. Natural lip glosses simply use high quality active botanicals instead of synthetic fillers to achieve their stunning glows. Best of all, these natural ingredients are capable of nourishing your skin from the inside out. Not only do you get beautiful, kissable, and yummy lips with a natural gloss, you also get moisturized and healthy looking lips underneath.
Organic lip glosses are brimming with naturally anti-aging ingredients like vitamin E, green tea, and berries which work to protect the fragile lip barrier. Ingredients such as jojoba oil, coconut oil, and shea butter are especially beneficial for the lips which have a difficult time retaining moisture (3). Instead of synthetic colors, natural lip glosses use earth minerals, fruits, and vegetables (iron oxides, mica, strawberries, pomegranate, blueberry skin, grape skin, cherries, plums, peaches, apricots, tomatoes) which lend their rich pigments as a natural lip stain. Essential oils of lavender, rosemary, Bulgarian rose, and peppermint offer antibacterial properties as well as natural fragrance. Think of your investment in an organic lip gloss as an investment in skin care for your lips.
Unfortunately, finding a true organic and all natural lip gloss can be quite a challenge. It seems like every brand is jumping on the clean beauty bandwagon, but consensus on what qualifies as “clean” is lacking in cosmetics. Thus, thousands of brands are claiming to be clean, natural, and organic with no oversight. That’s why our team of experts set out to find the best truly natural and organic lip glosses on the market. To us, organic and all natural means made without synthetic dyes and fragrances (1), parabens (2), phthalates, mineral oils, petroleum, and any other ingredients on our prohibited list. All of the natural lip glosses on this list 1) meet our ingredient standards and 2) are well reviewed by our testers and/or customers across the web. To quickly find the best lip gloss for you, use our FILTER function to sort these products by vegan lip glosses, gluten-free lip glosses, and 100% natural lip glosses. Enjoy!

Hi! Many Kjaer Weiss products do not meet our ingredient standards unfortunately.
