Clear Lip Conditioner

Our Better Balm is better in more ways than one: Made with carrot root oil and rosehip seed oil, itโ€™s rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids, rehydrating and regenerating dry skin while protecting your pout from environmental pollutants. And its sheer shine isnโ€™t just for the lipsโ€”blend it into cheeks for a dewy glow, or use it to hydrate and repair dry cuticles.

The Elate Standard


Ethical ingredients

All of our ingredients are vegan and cruelty-free. We follow the EU standards for safety (the most stringent on the planet) and source our ingredients from fair-trade and ethical sources.

Sustainable packaging

Over 95% of our packaging is reusable, recyclable or plantableโ€”and weโ€™re working on the other 5%. Our vision: To create a world without single-use cosmetics packaging.

Responsible marketing

We believe beauty is inclusive. By representing diversity in our marketing, we can empower beauty in all its shapes and shades, enhancing confidence and reducing overconsumption.

Recycling program

Empty, clean, mail, repeat

We believe weโ€™re each responsible for the waste we createโ€”and that includes every foundation, mascara and lipstick we make at Elate. We've partnered with PACT to ensure all of our packaging is recycled responsibly. Simply love your Elate, empty it, clean it and mail it- or return it to any participating in-store location.

FAQs

Our ingredients are about 75% organic. We strive to make our ingredients as organic as possible but will always choose fair trade over organic if we are unable to have both. It is important to us that every person involved in the making of our cosmetics is treated ethically and fairly.

We work closely with a green certified, fair trade manufacturer in China - where the bamboo is water processed and never chemically treated.

As bamboo is more readily available within Asia, we believe it is more climate-friendly (or sustainable) to have our products assembled where it is harvested, and then shipped to us.

Our bamboo supplier was carefully selected based on their FSC Certification. The Forest Stewardship Council Certification is a rigorous process, which includes an individual assessment and yearly audits.ย 

We use a vegan-based carnauba wax that is derived for the leaves of theย Copernicia prunifera tree.

Different from the palm grown and harvested in South East Asia, this powder is extracted from the leaves of the tree and does not require the tree to be brought down. Some ingredients, such as Stearic Acid, are also palm based and are supplied by RSPO certified suppliers who are regularly audited. You can learn more about the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oilย here.

All Elate packaging is elligible to be returned to us for proper recycling and disposal. Just clean your empty containers and send them back to us, we'll take care of the rest.

Yes, we offer sample kits of all of our foundation and concealers so that you can find the perfect shade before committing. Our sample options can be found on our Sample Kits pageย here, and will come packaged inย  recyclable/reusable aluminum tins. If you are unsure of your matching shade, we encourage you to purchase a sample size before committing to a full size product.
