Lip care products refer to cosmetics that provide nourishment to the lips and protect them against external elements, such as cold temperature, dry wind and UV radiation. These products are mainly composed of beeswax or carnauba wax, camphor, cetyl alcohol, lanolin, paraffin and petrolatum. Some varieties of lip care products also contain dyes, flavors, fragrances, phenol, salicylic acid and sunscreens. Nowadays, manufacturers are introducing a wide variety of lip care products ranging from flavored balms to products containing organic ingredients to attract a wider consumer base. They are also offering lip care formulas in user-friendly packaging options, such as jars, tubes, sticks and roll-ons, for their convenient application and carriage.

Although females have always been the major consumer of lip care products, there has been a surge in male consumers in recent years, owing to the growing trend of personal grooming among men. Apart from this, as the prolonged, unprotected exposure of lips to the sun can result in wrinkling, premature aging or actinic cheilitis, it has resulted in an increased demand for sun protection lip care products among consumers. Besides this, there has been an increasing focus of manufacturers on product innovations, the development of long-lasting and fast-acting formulas and attractive product ranges for teenagers that have helped in creating a larger consumer base. For instance, they have introduced various flavored balms, like vanilla, mango and strawberry that add shimmer or shine to the lips, along with providing moisturization.
