My love for lip balm didn’t fade as I grew up, but I did start looking for higher-quality products with a cleaner ingredient list. While I could find natural lip balms, I was disappointed by their texture and lack of fun flavors. It seemed like adults couldn’t have lip balms that were both high quality and fun.

So, I decided to take matters into my own hands—literally. Learning to make my own lip balm became my new obsession, and I hyperfocused on mastering it. It was so exciting to discover their unique properties of all the and experiment with flavors to create delicious custom blends.

The process of developing the perfect formula took lots of trial and error, but I was determined. I wanted a balm that was rich and creamy, but never waxy or oily. And it had to glide on effortlessly and last for hours. After countless batches, I finally created something I was proud of.

I started sharing my lip balms with friends and family, and their enthusiasm gave me the nudge I needed to launch Eclair Lips in 2015. At first, the business grew slowly, but everything changed in 2022 when videos of me sharing my process went viral. The attention has been overwhelming in the best way, and business really started to boom.

But through it all, the heart of Eclair Lips has remained the same. My goal has always been to create lip products that bring a little joy to your day. From our delicious flavors and soothing texture to our playful approach to marketing, every part of Eclair Lips is designed to add a bright spot to your day.

Meet Mario

While my husband Mario has been quietly supporting me behind the scenes since day one, he officially joined Eclair Lips a few years after we launched.

Mario is a bit of a jack of all trades around here. Whether he’s helping me with production, labeling all of our products, shipping orders, or troubleshooting the endless little things that pop up around the office, he keeps everything running smoothly.

But what Mario loves most? It’s reading the sweet notes customers leave on their orders. He’s constantly telling me how blown away he is by how much joy and happiness our little business brings to people, and honestly, that’s been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey for both of us.

A Family Business with Heart

Eclair Lips isn’t just a business; it’s our family’s way of life. As a small, family-run company, Mario and I are deeply grateful that this business has given us the space to fully be our neurodivergent selves. It’s allowed us to build something meaningful while also creating the flexibility our we and our two kids needs to thrive. We appreciate every bit of support that helps us continue doing what we love.
