Hip hooray for the Lip family 💋
Today I want to pay tribute to all 6 of them 💋 Because they represent both the start of Vossabia's skincare range, what drove all of our carefully developed products, and the final branch on our Vossabia tree for now.
So yes – now we are relaunching the LIP FAMILY 💛
And finally, our 1-year-old Raspberry Lips will be included in the family package! 🥳
In addition, we are launching LEPPETRIO – where you can choose your three favorites with 15% off the package price!


Here comes the tribute, in honor of Vossabia Lip Balms. Our first skin product. Created by a strong driving force and desire to showcase the incredible cycle that bees and flowers are such an important part of. And the raw materials that are the result of that cycle. Beeswax is the hero here! The protective and magically nourishing raw material 💪🏻 OMG!

Before Vossabia became natural skin care, I sold honey as a hobby. At markets until 2003, we had “only” sold Raspberry Honey, Heather Honey, Whiskey Honey and Rosehip Honey 🍯 But gradually I felt a strong need to showcase more of the wonderful things bees create – not just the sweet, but also what builds and protects: namely beeswax.
In 2003, when I got pregnant with Emil, I almost felt pregnant with something more than just a baby 💛
I felt a strong need to create – this time something for the skin and body. Food from the outside in and out. At the same time, I went on a vocational beekeeping course and really started to immerse myself in all the wonderful things bees make. I didn't just want to use the resources – I wanted to understand them. And pass them on.
And that's when I really discovered beeswax.
Because it's almost unbelievable how it's made.

When I realized this, I just sat there gaping.
Because beeswax is not just an ingredient – it is the very building block of life in the hive. Created from flowers, honey and cooperation.
And as a beekeeper, you get to be a small part of this interaction.
We regularly replace parts of the wax to keep the bees healthy, it is an important disease prevention and hygiene measure - and at the same time we give the honeybees the opportunity to build new ones, as they were created for and which increases their animal welfare. And it was precisely this beeswax that the bees have used in their life cycle... I had a strong feeling that I had to use it for something more.

And this is how the first lip balms were created:
Lavender lips and Mint lips .
Simple. Pure. Carefully formulated with good plant ingredients along with moisturizing and protective beeswax from our own bees.
It wasn't just my solution to dry and chapped lips – after years of using lip products that only made things worse. "Everyone" was using paraffin-based lip products (and cosmetics in general), so many felt the big difference and the quick effect.

In the early years, lip balms came in small jars.
On mouth ulcers, herpes and fungus. On sore skin. On eczema and psoriasis. And then it came again and again:
“You have to make more, these small jars won't do”
And the starting shot was fired 💥 Lavender and Mint Lips became Vossabia's catalyst!
The two small products started a demand from far and wide. And with that kick in the back, I got the development going in 2004. No stress, Emil slept 3 hours at a time during the day, so mom had time for more than just being a new mom 😅
Very fun, and now it's incredibly funny to think back that it was these two little things for the lips that made Vossabia's entire skincare line a reality!

10th anniversary Huldrelepper!
Then, 12 years later, the first colored lipstick arrived! Huldrelippers ❤️
The Huldra in me wanted forest and a little deep but discreet glow on the lips. I wanted that slightly mysterious, deep – but still soft and natural expression. I wanted a lip that felt like forest. Like earth and peace.
With spruce and a hint of purple glow, Huldrelepper was born. And it quickly became clear that I wasn't alone in longing for Huldrelepper.
When my dear sister Noha from Cairo came to visit, she was completely hooked. No matter if we were in the city, in the mountains or at home – Huldrelepper had to be worn.

And that's how it has been for many:
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— MildridGreat moisture for the lips, and Huldrelepper is a lovely color! Love it.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— MonicaPerfect color, consistency and smell 🤎 Love Huldrelepper🥰
And Huldrelepper surprises - it's not just for the lips.
Try it on your cheeks and... as a blush you get that nice and completely natural little extra! Magical in everyday life to quickly freshen up a bit.

The following year, Ylva's lips arrived 💗
Ylva was 9 years old at the time – and it was definitely not me who decided that we had to have pink lip balm 😄
Vetlajento wanted his own. A really pink one.
And so it was.
Of course, the forest theme had to be continued, so it was pine essential oil – soft, fresh and natural. Absolutely perfect for my mini-sister.
What was so nice was how she put it to use right away.
Not just on the lips... but all over the face 😂
So yes – there's no reason to keep your mouth shut here.

And many have been as happy with it as Ylva:
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— GretheThere's only one thing to say: I'm in love!
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— WencheEverything I need. Beautiful color and soft lips 💖
★ ★ ★ ★ ★—Anne MetteFantastic color and consistency! ❤️ Not too dark and with light shimmer❤️

Then came the King Lips 🤎
It was Linda who "pushed" for it. She simply wouldn't give in 😂
“You need to make a nude lip balm. That's what everyone wants now.”
I was a little skeptical. Because it's not just about creating a natural "nude" that actually looks nice. But the idea started working. I experimented. Tried. Failed. Tried again.
And then – suddenly – it stopped!

The name was never a question. No Nude here in the yard, no. It had to be Konglepper 🌲
Discreet, soft and naturally beautiful – just what many people want on their lips in everyday life.
And Linda? She was both beautiful and very happy 😄
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— Else Marie S.Coneflower is always with me, I use it daily and it is my constant faithful friend.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— HegeBeautiful shimmer and color! I'm totally addicted to lip style, but with this lipstick is replaced. Love it ❤️
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— MelissaPerfect cool brown tone, with a slight shimmer in it. My teeth look whiter with this on! Holds moisture well😍 perfect for everyday and parties!

And then – the youngest in the family 🍓
Raspberry Lips , which turns 1 year old this May! 🥳
And what a start it's had. This fresh, juicy, glossy raspberry color has become a favorite for many in record time. Sophisticated – yet natural and playful.
The kind of color that brings life to your face and makes people notice you – without it feeling “too much”.

On the lips, it provides lots of moisture and care, with organic castor oil and jojoba in perfect harmony with the beeswax that holds everything in place and ensures that the moisture in the lips stays in the lips 💛
And the response was not long in coming:
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— Tove S.It's the softest and best lip balm I've ever tried. AND what a beautiful color. Love it!!
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— LinnLove this amazing lipo cream! You can also use it as a blush, I love it so much that I bring it with me to work every day ❤️Good to touch 🫶
★ ★ ★ ★ ★— HelenLove the color and moisture! No more dryness
So from the very first small jars in 2004… to a whole Leppe family today, 22 years later 💛

Every single leppis brings with it the history, the need for communication and the health and eco-driving force behind Vossabia and in addition a little of this:
🌸 the flowers in our meadows
🐝 our bees
💛 and the desire to nourish – not just inside, but also to the skin
And maybe that's exactly why so many people like them.
💋 Go for the whole LIP FAMILY
💋 Or put together your own LIP TRIO
Or maybe yours ❤️
then you'll get a little bit of the magic from the bees with you 💛🐝

With deep gratitude from Renate 💛
