I buy this lip balm because it’s the only one my wife likes
I absolutely love the chapsticks. They leave your lips so soft and moisturized. The smell is amazing.
Really lovely scent and feels amazing!
The Lip Balms are amazing!! Got rid of my dry lip in a matter of minutes!!! I ordered the Huckleberry for my granddaughter and she loves it!! Will be buying more!!
I've tried many lip balms and this is by far my favorite. It is the right consistency and lasts for a long time without being really thick or heavy. My very challenged and dry lips stay hydrated without having to reapply frequently. Huge benefit for me. The balm has a great subtle vanilla flavor and of course all natural ingredients. I picked my first one up at a PCC food coop while traveling to Seattle. I liked it so much I ordered two more from the company. My lips thank you for a great product!
Island Thyme lip balm is our family favorite ever, and vanilla is the favorite flavor ever. It heals our chapped lips and goes on smooth. Fragrance and quality are unmatched and consistent for the past 20 years!
This is literally the only chapstick I will use since I found it a few years ago. I only have to apply it once or twice a day and my lips feel moisturized all day. Other chapsticks I feel like I have to reapply constantly. I love that it's all natural ingredients- my sole complaint is the use of "flavoring" as I try to avoid labels with vague "flavor" or "fragrance" ingredients. Regardless, the vanilla flavor is very real and not artifical tasting in anyway.
I choose Island Thyme's Vanilla Bean lip balm every time. It smells SO yummy!!
I just wish Island Thyme made other products in Vanilla Bean . I would buy every single one!! No Kidding!!
Keep up the good work Island Thyme and thank you for opening your store in Friday Harbor.
I only buy Island Thyme lip balm because it works!
I bought a couple lip balms when I was on the island and they immediately became my absolute favorite. They're so smooth, don't dry your lips like most lip balms, and smell sooooo good. I was kinda sad I couldn't get more until I found them in a local store! I hardly ever write reviews but everyone needs to know how good these are.
I am giving these to everyone in the family as stocking stuffers because they’re amazing!!! I want my family to have safe ingredients and smooth hydrated lips! Thank you for your pursuit of clean wonderful products!!!
Used these lip balms as gifts for family during Thanksgiving visit. Gave to family who now live in Sweden, and who suffer chapped lips in the winter. He was not only impressed with the quality, he liked the flavor too. Gave him Vanilla Bean and Mint flavors
This is the best chapstick I have used and cannot give it up. The luxury of this rich and creamy feel is something I rave about and enjoy giving them to those I care about as they enjoy as well! Love supporting small and local businesses and Island Thyme has been such a fortunate find as I have the pleasure of living in the PNW for several years and originally found this at Haagens. Thankful even more to have it shipped directly to me in Texas! Over my decades, this has been the finest brand and quality of chapstick I have ever found!
This lip balm goes on so smoothly. The mild scent is pleasing . I look forward to applying it. I ordered extras as gifts.
Obsessed with this lip balm!! Not only does it keep my lips moisturized all day long it tastes amazing as well!!! Hands down my favorite lip balm of life!!!
This may seem overblown, but this is the only lip balm I can use. My skin is very sensitive so I have to be careful. Even trying many other health-food type brands over the years, this has been the only one for many years that is completely benign. Also, the feel is lovely with a lovely, natural, non-overpowering flavor/scent. Thank you for continuing to make this! (I also recently bought the Cardamom-Vanilla, and that one seems to work similarly. Nice to have an alternate flavor.)
My newest obsession after finding this on Friday Harbor.
Visited Orcas as a teen and purchased this lip balm at the farmer’s market and totally fell in love with it. Been ordering it for the past 20 years and as my wife knows I have it stashed all over in our cars, backpacks, desks, jackets! At this point seriously can’t imagine life without it. Thank you Island Thyme 🙏🏽
Thank you James! We're so happy to hear that you've been loving our lip balm for over 20 years, what a delightful compliment! Thanks for sharing :)
This is the BEST and only lip balm that my daughter ( who lives abroad ) and I have used for the past 10+ years! It moisturizes and does not dry out our lips, like the many lip balms we used before discovering Island Thyme Vanilla!
I purchase both the Vanilla and Lavender lip balms regularly. They are so moisturizing, have a lovely scent, and stay on a long time.
I use this all the time. It is my go to lip balm.
This lip balm is truly special. I have searched for a long time to find something that smells fabulous, is very moisturizing and stays on for a long time. I will continue to buy these lip balms as long as they are available. I highly recommend them!
This is the only 5 star review I've ever given for any product. I have a patch of eczema that regularly appears on my bottom lip. I've tried every other lip balm out there, but they all burn and itch. Island Thyme makes the *only* lip balm that soothes and heals the eczema. I've given countless tubes to friends and family and they love it also. Vanilla and Tingle Mint are my favorites and I also like Berry.
I keep Vanilla Lip Balm in my purse, by my bed, and in my bathroom. It is the only lip balm I have ever found that feels wonderful and lasts and lasts. I love it!
Soothing, very emollient, and provides excellent protection! The vanilla flavor/scent is present, but not overwhelming, and it doesn't make me cough. The stick is long-lasting too, a little product goes a long way!
Our Process
Nature's best
We start with the highest quality flowers, herbs, and medicinals. Some, like calendula, lavender, and cucumber, come from the Island Thyme farm. Others, like St. John's Wort, are wildcrafted in Montana's Bitterroot Mountains. Others are sourced from around the world.
Time-tested recipes
All of our recipes have been developed in-house over the past 25+ years. Starting from skin-nourishing base ingredients like sweet almond oil and beeswax, we fine-tune the scent and texture.
Small batches
No industrial manufacturing here! In our commercial kitchen in the village of Eastsound on Orcas Island, our crew meticulously crafts each product in small batches for freshness and quality control.
Delivered to you
After labeling, products are ready for you, our amazingly loyal customers. Our shipping team boxes up online orders, stocks our two storefronts in Eastsound and Friday Harbor, and prepares shipments to our wholesale outlets, which include natural food stores and gift shops throughout the Pacific Northwest
