For most people lip balm is seen as an essential personal care product used to help eliminate chapped or irritated lips. Such a universal product is a great one to private label as it appeals to a wide customer base. It is important to note, however, that not all private label lip balms are created equal. It is essential to find an all natural lip balm with no irritants or allergens in the ingredient listing. As you might be able to assume, most lower quality lip balms contain low quality ingredients, which can irritate the lips and cause even more irritation. While unnatural or low quality lip balms may feel nice when applied to the skin, they may be causing the lips to become even more irritated and, in turn, to need more lip balm.
