Guide to Gloss, Care, and Sustainable Packaging

The Beauty Staple You Can’t Do Without

Few products in the beauty world are as essential and versatile as a good gloss lip balm. Besides applying it to a nude lip to add the perfect amount of shine, an excellent lip balm can be layered over lipstick and used to moisturize dry lips.

In other words, a great lip balm should do more than achieve a surface-level gloss—it should also protect, hydrate, and feel amazing to wear.

But what does it take to make a truly great gloss lip balm?

At Yibero, we are private brand label lip balm experts, offering high-performance formulas and eco-conscious lip balm containers to help brands succeed. Here’s what you need to know when creating—or shopping for—an excellent lip balm.

Hydration with Staying Power

When it comes down to it, the purpose of a lip balm is to moisturize. A good gloss lip balm should stay moist while providing a smooth surface.

The most commonly used ingredients include:

  • Petroleum jelly or Vaseline (as used in many vaseline lip balm set formulas)
  • Beeswax or shea butter
  • Vitamin E, jojoba oil, and aloe vera

These ingredients offer deep nourishment while leaving lips supple and comfortable.

Shine and Tint Options for Added Appeal

In today’s market, hydration alone is no longer enough. Consumers are looking for more from their lip care products.

That’s why a modern gloss lip balm often comes with:

  • A subtle hint of color
  • Added flavors
  • Touches of glitter or shimmer

Yibero offers multiple packaging options and formulation flexibility to help brands tailor gloss products to a wide variety of consumer needs and preferences.

Sustainable and Stylish Packaging

Consumers are now more conscious of the environmental impact of their beauty purchases. This makes packaging just as important as formulation.

An ideal lip balm container eco friendly should be:

  • Reusable or recyclable
  • Made from biodegradable or PCR (post-consumer recycled) plastic
  • Compact, stylish, and convenient to carry or share

At Yibero, we offer biodegradable and PCR material balm containers to help brands align with sustainability goals.
