ABSTRACT

Herbal lipsticks are growing more and more popular these days as natural cosmetics are easy for women to use and safe to use. Artificial colouring ingredients have been shown to be carcinogenic and can cause allergic reactions. Our study's objective was to create and evaluate herbal lipstick using biologically edible use colouring materials such as cocoa powder, turmeric powder, and cinnamon bark powder. Herbal lipstick was made with a wide range of natural ingredients, including butter, coconut oil, castor oil, olive oil, bees wax, vanilla, and rose essence, as well as lemon juice. Herbal lipstick samples performed several tests to assess their colour, texture, pH,melting point, breaking point, softening point, surface irregularities, ageing, and perfume stability. They were also compared to commonly available standard formulations. Findings indicated.
