Overall, this product is doing okay.

Sweet Relief Barrier Balm has higher emissions than a typical balm (face & body), in part due to its supply chain design.

This product has lower solid waste output than a typical balm (face & body). Some of the components are likely curbside recyclable, which is great! However, the product could still be improved, as some of the components are not recyclable.
