Although it may seem a bit pricey, this lip balm is the most effective vegan balm I've found! I was surprised at how well it worked for not containing beeswax. Canadian winters mean extremely chapped and cracked lips, so I was happy that a little of this product goes a long way. One application will do you the entire day. It doesn't immediately absorb and creates a nice barrier from the harsh cold. The only downside is that it's a tub, not a tube, and it does have an overwhelming lemon scent (almost like a lemon cleaner), but you'll get used to it over time. Probably the best lip balm out there for vegans.
