Frequently asked questions about
lip Balm Products
Can I start with an existing formula?
Yes. You can choose a proven base formula and customize its texture, color, scent, ingredients, packaging or finish. Fully customized formula development is also available.
Can you develop vegan or natural lip balm?
Yes, subject to formula feasibility, ingredient availability, testing and the requirements of your target market. Specific vegan, natural or organic claims should be supported by appropriate documentation.
How do you prevent lip balm from melting or breaking?
We review the wax-oil system, balm hardness, packaging structure, filling method and storage conditions. The applicable stability, breakage, compatibility and transportation tests should be confirmed for each project.
Can you develop SPF or plumping lip balm?
Yes, these projects require additional formula review, safety evaluation, performance testing and target-market claim review. Final claims must be based on the applicable test results and regulations.
Can you use our packaging?
Yes. Customer-supplied packaging can be evaluated for dimensions, filling suitability, sealing, mechanism performance, leakage risk and formula compatibility before production.
Can you sign an NDA?
Yes. An NDA can be reviewed and signed before confidential formulas, product concepts, artwork or business information are shared.
