FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF LIP BALM

The present research work is based on the formulation and evaluation of herbal lip balm by using natural herbals like rose oil, bees wax, Shea butter, vitamin E, Beet root. Rose oil nourishes and softens lips naturally. The herbal lip balm which possesses anti-inflammatory properties and heals chapped lips was formulated and evaluated. The lip balm was produced by homogenous mixing. The lip balm, was characterized for physical stability, pH, melting point, and spreadability. The pH was found to be 6.2 and the melting point was found to be 55 to 65°C. After carrying out stability tests at room temperature (25.0–3.0°C) and in a refrigerator (4.0–2.0°C), it was demonstrated that the manufactured lip balm was uniform in nature and could be applied flawlessly without any deformation.
