It is indeed a difficult task to acknowledge the service of all those gentle people who have
extended their valuable suggestion and support. Directly or indirectly whose names have been
unable to mention as they are like the countless stars in numerous galaxies.
Above all again last but not least; I am indebted to the Almighty. It is the faith and trust on
God to give me strength to overcome all difficulties. It is his blessings that where I am today.

INTRODUCTION
Lip Balm:
Lip balm, also known as lip salve, is a waxy material that is applied topically to the lips to
moisturise and alleviate chapped or dry lips, angular cheilitis, stomatitis, and cold sores.
Beeswax or carnauba wax, camphor, cetyl alcohol, lanolin, paraffin, and petrolatum are all
common constituents in lip balm. Dyes, flavour, fragrance, phenol, salicylic acid, and
sunscreen are all included in some variations. Lip balm's main function is to create an occlusive
layer on the lip surface that seals moisture in the lips and protects them from the elements. Dry
air, chilly temperatures, and wind all take moisture away from the body, causing skin to dry
out. Lips are especially susceptible because to their thin skin, and they are frequently the first
to show indications of dryness. Waxes and petroleum jelly are occlusive materials that prevent
moisture loss and keep lips comfortable, while flavourings, colourants, sunscreens, and other
medications can provide additional, particular benefits. Bee wax and natural candelilla and
carnauba waxes are used to make lip balms.
History:
Historians claim that the ancient Egyptians were the first to discover natural oils, beeswax,
and honey, which are now utilised in lip balm. Cosmetics were only worn by the wealthy to
demonstrate their power and prestige. Cleopatra, who was born in 69 B.C., is possibly the
most famous Egyptian to use cosmetics such as lip balm
The invention of ChapStick can be traced back to ancient China. This is a one-of-a-kind piece
created exclusively for Different Truths. Since the dawn of time, people have devised cures
for chapped lips. According to Chinese sources, a type of lip balm was used as early as the
Eastern Han dynasty (25–220 AD). A cure for chapped lips for nursing moms is described.
anearly to mid-eighteenth-century American book.
Lydia Maria Child, a woman named Lydia Maria Child, wrote a book called "The American
Frugal Housewife" in the 1800s. She also advocated using earwax to cure chapped lips in the
book!
The world's first official lip balm is claimed to Charles Brown Fleet in 1880s. It was covered
in tin foil and looked like a candle without a wick. Chapstick was the brand name, but it
didn't sell as well as the Chapstick we know today.
Blistex lip care products were first introduced in 1947 by Charles Arch as a medicated lip
balm. It not only keeps your lips from drying out, but it also contains an external analgesic,
which acts as a pain reliever.
Abreva® was the first FDA-approved pharmaceutical over-the-counter lip therapy cream in
2000. This is used to treat more significant lip problems like cold sores.

Abstract:
Lip care products are an important aspect of everyday living. These provide the lips colour
while also protecting them from the elements. Lip balm's main purpose is to protect and
hydrate the lips. Lip care products come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The biggest issue
with this product is that it contains synthetic colourants and flavouring chemicals, which
might cause side effects such as lip darkening. Furthermore, these may include heavy metals,
which might harm numerous body organs. The current study looks at how to make lip balm
with as many natural elements as feasible, as well as how to evaluate the recipe. Beetroot
extract, cocoa powder, almond oil, and vitamin E were among the natural substances
employed.

PHYSIOCHEMICAL
EVALUATION
• Organoleptic properties:
The formulation's physical appearance, colour, and odour were
investigated. Physical observation was used to assess these features. By
pressing a little amount of the formulation between the thumb and index
finger, texture and homogeneity were determined. The texture and
homogeneity of the formulations were assessed using the presence of
coarse particles and consistency. The stiffness, greasiness, and grittiness
of the skin were also assessed.
• pH:
One gram of formulation was dispersed and homogenised in 25 mL of
distilled water. A pH metre (Equi-Tronics) calibrated with a standard
buffer solution was used to determine the pH of the formulation (pH 4, 7
and 10). The measurements were made three times. The pH was found to
be 6.0[±0.5]
• Melting Point:
The melting point equipment was used to determine the melting point. In
a nutshell, one end of the capillary was sealed, and the formulation was
injected into the capillary from another end up to a particular height. The
melting point device was used on the capillary, and the temperature at
which the bulk melted was recorded. The melting point was found to
be52°C[±3°C]
22
• Spreadablity Test:
Ceramic plates were used to test spreadability. Load was applied to the
formulation sandwiched between two plates, and the formulation was
dispersed over the plates. Visual inspection of the layer's formation
homogeneity was carried out.
For this test, the following criteria were established:
G - Good: uniform
I – Intermediate uniform; leaves few discontinuations
B - Bad: not uniform
The result of the test came out to be “G”.
23
• Stability Test:
The stability of the lip balm formulation was tested for 30 days at various
temperatures, including room temperature (25±2°C), higher temperature
in an oven (40±2°C), and refrigeration (5±2°C). On the 7th, 15th, and
30th days, characteristics such as organoleptic qualities and spreadability
were evaluated.

• Microbial Testing:
Lip Balms gloss typically include Pseudomonas spp. and Staphylococcus
spp. The spread of Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas bacteria is
worrying, necessitating drastic measures.
The favoured media for growing Staphylococci cultures were tryptic soy
broth (TSB) and BHI. With aeration, cultures could not be grown at
37°C.

SUMMARY
AND CONCLUSION
• Summary:
Lips have very thin skin and very susceptible to drying out, ultimately chipping
of lips takes place. Applying lotions and creams on chipped lips are impractical
as these are water-soluble have very little retention on lips. Ointments suffer
from stickiness; hence lip balm is the best alternative to apply on lips. Lip balm
retains the moisture and prevents chipping. Synthetic dyes, flavours and other
ingredients may harm lips as these may cause drying of lips, allergic reaction
and darkening. The current research work aims to prepare lip balm containing
the maximum possible herbal ingredients. To impart the attractiveness to lips as
well as to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the cosmetic formulation selection of
colouring agents is of utmost importance. In this formulation, the colouring
agent was used as beetroot pigments. The beetroot is an easily available
resource of red colour pigments. These pigments are known as betalains. These
consist of betaxanthines which responsible for the yellow colour and
betacyanins produce the red colour. The major constituent of betacyanins is
betanin that accounts for 75-95%, which imparts red colour to beetroot.
Retention of colour pigments is important for the visual appeal of the
formulation. The current study is also focused to impart a red colour to the
formulation; hence beetroot is selected as a major source of colour pigment. In
addition to that betanin also possess antioxidant potential and found to constrain
lipid peroxidation.
Besides, vitamin E is added as antioxidant to prevent oxidation of formulation.
Vitamin E also helps to make lips softer and more resistant to damage. Cocoa
powder is one of the key excipients in food and pharmaceuticals. In this
formulation, Rose Oil is used as a natural flavouring agent. The flavour is a
significant parameter for the consumer. The Rose flavour is natural,
characteristic and attractive. Rose oil & Mentha oil contains volatile
constituents such as esters, pyrazines, aldehydes, organic acids, and
diketopiperazines that impart aroma. Cocoa also composed of alkaloids like
methylxanthine, proteins and carbohydrates. Reducing sugar and protein that
interacts through Millard reaction that yields a characteristic chocolate-like
flavour. Almond oil used as a moisturizing and emulsifying agent. It contains
fatty acids that retain moisture in the skin and promote healing of chapped lips.
The emollient property helps to keep the lip soft and smooth. Besides Rose And
Mentha Oil rejuvenates lips by removing dead skin cells and lightens lips. By
considering the various advantages of natural ingredients lip balm formulation
was prepared.
27
• Conclusion:
The demand for natural Lip Balms is growing day by day, present study
showed Beta vulgaris contains nutrients, vitamins and Betanin which are
responsible for colouring effect and moisturizing. Further the result of the
present study demonstrated that Beta vulgaris is one of the vulgaris species
that merits more investigation and research.
• FUTURE SCOPE:
§ Animal Friendly
§ Less Adverse Reaction
§ Less Chemical Waste
