The main objective of this study was to formulate and evaluate an antioxidant-rich natural lip balm for ultimate lip nourishment and protection. Lips. The use of natural antioxidants in lip care formulations helps in protecting lips from oxidative damage while providing hydration and nourishment. The lip balm was formulated using the extract of Punica granatum, Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze, and other ingredients beeswax, cocoa butter, lanolin, vitamin E, olive oil, Phenoxyethanol+ethylhexylglycerin, vanilla flavour oil. These ingredients were selected for their moisturizing, protective, healing, and free radical scavenging activities. Different formulations F1, F2, F3 were prepared by varying ingredients and concentration. All formulations were evaluated for various parameters such as colour, odour, appearance, homogeneity, pH, spreadability, melting point, stability, and antioxidant activity. The antioxidant potential of the formulated lip balm was assessed using suitable in-vitro methods. The results indicated that the formulations were smooth, non-irritant, stable, and showed good antioxidant activity along with excellent moisturizing properties. All three formulations were excellent in different aspects, but overall, F3 demonstrated excellent anti-oxidant property compared to F1 and F2.
