Watermelon Balm Stick

Breakdown

1 ingredient to avoid

Dr. PAWPAW Watermelon Balm Stick scores 47/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Dr. PAWPAW Watermelon Balm Stick lists 10 ingredients, starting with Ricinus Communis Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil, Olea Europaea Fruit Oil, Euphorbia Cerifera Wax and Helianthus Annuus Seed Wax. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 47/100 Dr. PAWPAW Watermelon Balm Stick lands mid-scale — below the typical score in lip balm & care, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in lip balm & care is Dr. Bronner's Organic Lip Balm - Orange Ginger at 100/100.
