Lipstick is a cosmetic product that is used to color the lips and contains oils, pigments, waxes and emollients. It is widely used for enhancing the texture of lips and providing a radiant look to the overall facial appearance. It is manufactured in a multi-stage process that begins with melting and mixing various ingredients, shaping them into tubular molds and then packaging the final product. Nowadays, lipsticks are also being enriched with vitamin E, glycerin and coconut oil to maintain healthy lips. They also act as a lip balm that provides both hydration and color to the lips. They are often worn by both men and women and are among the most commonly used makeup products across the globe.
