A Comprehensive Review of Herbal Lipstick
Keywords:
Ensures quality, Environmentally friendly, Hibiscus powder, pH value, Vegetable ingredientsAbstract
Lipsticks are one of the most used cosmetics, but traditional compositions often contain synthetic dyes, preservatives, and harmful chemicals and can cause allergic reactions and sometimes long-term side effects. As the demand for natural and herbal alternatives increases, herbal lipstick has been developed to ensure safe, effective, and nutritious lip management using vegetable ingredients. This study is dedicated to the formulation and evaluation of herbal lipsticks using natural colouring, cultivation and refuelling from medicinal plants. Ingredients such as bit extracts, hibiscus powder, and turmeric have been used as natural pigments, bee waxes, sinuses, and coconut oils, which serve as a basis for consistency, fluid consumption, and smooth use. The formalized lipstick ensures quality and performance by reviewing various physical chemicals, including melting, hardness, distribution, pH value, and stability tests. Sensory estimates were also performed to evaluate the aroma's strength, texture, and acceptance. The results showed that herb lipsticks had excellent stability, soft texture, and suitable color station and did not cause irritation. This study emphasizes the potential of herbal lipsticks as a safe, environmentally friendly, and stable alternative to synthetic lip products that correspond to consumer preference for natural beauty decisions.
