Why
Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients: no beeswax, honey, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk. Some ingredients like glycerin can come from plants or animals, so a vegan claim on the label matters.
No, Nivea Original Care Lip Balm is not vegan. It lists Cera Alba: beeswax.
This is not a safety warning. It is a label fact, useful if you avoid this group on purpose.
