Lip Balm Market – Introduction
- Lip balm is a wax-like substance applied on the lips to moisturize dry lips. Increasing awareness regarding personal care and grooming is boosting the lip balm market across the globe.
Key Drivers of the Lip Balm Market
- Skin on the lips is thinner than facial skin and hence, it can dry easily. Lip balms ensure that the lips remain hydrated and heal faster. Most lip balms have SPF in them, which offer protection against harmful rays of the sun. Lip balms also moisturize, nourish, color, and provides a glossy effect to the lips in order to make them appear fuller. These factors increase the demand for lip balms.
- Lip balms are available in various flavors and scents. Furthermore, expansion of the online platform, rising awareness about lip care, and improving lifestyle of consumers propel the lip balm market.

Various countries across the globe imposed lockdown and social distancing policy to stop the spread of virus, which resulted in closure of manufacturing plants and disruption of supply chains. This delayed the production of lip balms and hampered the lip balm market.
