Scrub & mask02
Two jars for the other moments of the week: a honey lip scrub of golden grains, for once or twice a week, and a thick lavender-scented mask for bedtime. Each one is sold on its own.
Shop scrub & mask
The balms and the mask hold 0.23 oz (6.5 g) each, the scrub 0.35 oz (10 g).
Texture and tint
Ten little swipes
Most of them go on clear and glossy, so all you see is shine. Cherry, Watermelon and Blueberry leave a sheer, see-through color that deepens with a second layer. The scrub is golden grains you wipe away, and the mask is a soft lavender cream.
Goes on clear
Leaves a sheer tint
Golden grains, wiped away
Ten swipes on paper, colored as they look in the jar. On the lips, six of them go on clear.
Key ingredients
Inside the jar
The maker names three key ingredients in every balm, plus its flavor. Here is what each one is, in plain words.
- 01
Beeswax
A soft, pale golden wax that smells faintly of honey when it warms up. It gives the balm its body: firm in the jar, soft on a fingertip.
- 02
Propolis
A sticky, amber-brown resin gathered from tree buds. It smells warm, resinous and a little spicy, and it is in all ten jars.
- 03
Vitamin E
A pale golden, oil-soluble vitamin that ingredient lists call tocopherol. It is a familiar part of lip balms, and the maker lists it in all ten.
- 04
The flavors
Honey, strawberry, vanilla, cherry, watermelon, coconut, mint and blueberry: one per balm, for the smell when you lift the cap and the taste on your lips. Mint adds a cool tingle from menthol. The scrub tastes of honey, and the mask has a lavender and chamomile scent.
Key ingredients as described by the maker, still being confirmed in writing. The full ingredient list will be printed on the jar, and we e-mail it as soon as we have it: write to contact@mouebalm.com.
Three steps
How to use it
No mirror needed, though one is nice the first time.
-
1Scoop a little
Lift the cap and take a dab of balm, about the size of a lentil, with the spatula or a clean fingertip. That is plenty for both lips.
-
2Dab it on
Dab it onto your lips and smooth it out with a fingertip. It melts as it warms.
-
3Close and go
Wipe the spatula clean, put the cap back on, and drop the jar in a coat pocket or a bag.
Three jars, three moments
Scrub, balm, mask
A honey scrub now and then, a balm whenever you like, a mask at bedtime. Use any of them on its own.
-
01
Scrub, once or twice a week
Rub a little Honey Lip Scrub gently over your lips in small circles, then wipe it all away with a soft damp cloth. A balm comes next.
-
02
Balm, any time
Pick a flavor and dab it on: at your desk, on the way out, before a call. Clear and glossy, or a sheer tint.
-
03
Mask, at bedtime
Smooth a thin layer of Overnight Lip Mask over your lips before you turn off the lamp. In the morning, wipe away what is left.
Each one is sold on its own, at its own price.

Questions
Before you order
Anything else? Write to us from our contact page. We reply within 2 business days.
Which ones tint and which go on clear?
Cherry leaves a sheer red, Watermelon a sheer pink and Blueberry a sheer purple, and each one deepens a little with a second layer. Honey, Strawberry, Vanilla, Coconut and Mint go on clear and glossy, whatever their color in the jar. The Overnight Lip Mask is lavender in the jar and goes on clear too.
Why a jar and a spatula?
A jar shows you the color before you open it, and you can reach every bit of balm at the bottom. The spatula keeps fingers out of the balm, so the jar stays tidy. A clean fingertip is fine too: just close the jar after.
Is there anything animal-derived in it?
Yes. Every MOUE product contains propolis, the balms and the mask contain beeswax, and the scrub contains honey. So MOUE is not vegan, and we would rather say so up front.
How cool is the mint one?
It has a cool tingle from menthol, like breathing in just after a mint, and it fades after a few minutes. If it feels like too much, wipe it off. The cautions on its page say more.
Can I use the scrub every day?
No. Once or twice a week is plenty. Rub it gently over your lips in small circles, wipe it all away with a soft damp cloth, then dab on a balm. Read the cautions on its page before the first time.
How do I use the overnight mask?
At bedtime, scoop a little with the spatula and smooth a thin layer over your lips. Leave it on overnight, and in the morning wipe away what is left. It is thicker than the balms and smells softly of lavender and chamomile.
Will it melt in my car?
The balm softens above about 86°F (30°C), a bit like chocolate left on a dashboard. Store below 86°F (30°C), away from direct sunlight and heat, with the jar closed. In summer, a bag or a coat pocket is a better home than the glove box. If a jar ever arrives melted or leaking, tell us: it counts as damaged.
Where is the full ingredient list?
Each product page shows the key ingredients as the maker describes them. The full list is being collected from the maker: it will be printed on the jar, and we e-mail it as soon as we have it. Write to contact@mouebalm.com with the name of the product. More on our Ingredients & Prop 65 page.
How do shipping and returns work?
Shipping is included in the price; there is no separate delivery charge. Import duties and customs fees are paid by us. If a carrier ever asks you for any, contact us and we will cover it in full. Orders ship with tracking to the 50 US states and Washington, D.C.: allow about 8 to 15 business days from order confirmation. Unopened products with the seal intact can be returned within 30 days of delivery if you change your mind. For hygiene, a balm, scrub or mask that has been opened or used cannot be returned for a change of mind. A product that arrives damaged, leaking, with a broken or missing seal, past its date or wrong is replaced or refunded: send us a photo by e-mail, there is nothing to mail back. You can cancel free of charge until your order ships. Returns, refunds and cancellations.
Who should not use MOUE?
Every MOUE product contains bee products: propolis in all ten, beeswax in the balms and the mask, honey in the scrub. Do not use them if you are allergic to bees, bee products, honey, pollen or balsam of Peru. Propolis is a known contact allergen. If your skin is sensitive, patch test first: a little on the inside of your wrist, then wait a day. Stop using it and ask a doctor if redness, itching, swelling or a rash appears, and never use a MOUE product on broken skin or a cold sore. The Overnight Lip Mask also contains aloe vera and a lavender and chamomile scent. More on our Safe Use page.
