    Has anyone taken a look at the actual lawsuit?

    Thanks for your input everyone!
    @MarkBroussard - the problem is not limited to the peppermint flavor but also includes balms from their standard product line and “visibly soft” line (which is a different formulation)

    Visibly Soft “Blackberry Nectar”:
    Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil*, Beeswax/Cera Alba (Cire d’abeille)*, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil*, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil*, Natural Flavor, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter)*, Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate, Sodium Isostearoyl Lactylate, Water, Sodium Hyaluronate, Stevia Rebaudiana Leaf/Stem Extract, Tocopherol, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Rubus Fruticosis (Blackberry) Fruit Extract.

    Since I posted this it appears that EOS is being slammed on their social media pages.

    A few choice excerpts:
    - It’s the beeswax! Never use beeswax!
    - This is why I never use natural products!
    - They changed the formula to save money! (ingredient lists are the same)
    - They started making them in China to save money! (no)

    My favorite:
    - They’re intentionally buying contaminated ingredients that were supposed to be destroyed from China because they’re cheaper!

    Oy!!

    Not exactly sure what you’re going for.
    So I’ll take a shot in the dark…
    Mica?
    Mica Pigments?
