R&D Background Story
WeCare Naturally’s nutrition consultant, Jessica, has very sensitive skin. When she worked as a nutrition instructor in Taiwan 20+ years ago, she travelled around the whole country because of her work. Over the course of ten months, while she taught over one hundred classes, Jessica repeatedly ate out and putting on makeups were her daily routine. As the result, Jessica suffered breakouts all over her skin and inflammation and sores around the lips started developing. From using lip balm to visiting doctors, none of them seemed to work. Even talking became painful to her. The next step she took was to stop eating out. She started making her own meals throughout the day; and on top of it, she added in the natural supplements and plenty of sleep. A few months later, her inflamed lips and skin had gone back to normal, and the lips returned to the normal pinky color!
Although she had healed the skin and lip problems, these problems still reoccurred every time she ate out over two meals, or every time she consumed over burned food or food containing hydrogenated oils or MSG. Once these foods had been consumed, her lips would signal out by swelling up and burning. She found out that her lips are extremely sensitive, and they are sensitive enough to be the indicators for toxic food items! At the same time, Jessica also found out that the average lip balms and lip colorings on the market are all toxic!
Beauty and the health...Sometimes you can’t have them both. However, for health purposes and the beauty needs, Jessica spent her spare time working on developing natural, non-toxic lip balm, with great healing powers. The first item she developed uses WeCare Naturally’s own cold-pressed camellia oil as its base. Additionally, high-quality vitamin E and organic beeswax were added to provide antioxidant and anti-aging effect. Jessica was surprised when she tested it out. She had never tried any lip balms like the Camellia Lip Balm. It is extremely moisturizing and quick absorbing. And the best part is, you won’t have to worry about the chemicals and additives anymore. After the Camellia Lip Balm was successfully developed, Jessica tried other good oils and natural ingredients commonly found in the kitchen, and developed more lip balms and lip colorings. For example: Coconut Lip Balm made with fresh organic coconut oil, Orange Lip Balm made with organic palm and orange oil. She also invented a special lip coloring that can give you a natural lip color just like the young teenage girls have! There was one time when Jessica was at the TV interview in San Francisco, the stylist has personally felt the power of this natural lip coloring. Not only did it make Jessica looked more natural and appealing on TV, everyone in the resting room were amazed by this natural lip gloss. Even the host was complementing Jessica on her natural beauty, pretty and healthy! Of course, Jessica was very glad to hear all these complements because this is the main purpose of putting up makeup, isn’t it? Jessica never wants to be pretty by putting on tons of heavy makeups, but choosing the natural, non-toxic makeups certainly can help you to be free from all the worries AND be beautiful inside and out!
It is absolutely easy to keep both health and beauty at the same time! All the secrets are in Jessica’s Blog! Feel free to check them out!

Q&A
Q1. How do I store the natural lip balms?
The naturally hand-made Orange lip balm is highly oxidative; please store it under the shades and with cool temperature. If it is opened and not used for a period of time, store it in the refrigerator and simply take it out when required. Avoid storing in high temperature (ie. In the car), this would prevent oxidation.
