Carmex is an American lip care brand founded in 1937 by Alfred Woelbing, who developed the first formula in the kitchen of his home in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. The idea stemmed from a personal need: to find a concrete solution for dry and chapped lips when no product available on the market met his expectations. That homemade formula, initially distributed from pharmacy to pharmacy, gradually gained popularity through word of mouth. Today, Carma Laboratories, Inc. — still family-owned — distributes Carmex products in over 65 countries, maintaining a continuity of values that spans four generations. The famous jar with a yellow cap, which has become a globally recognizable icon over time, embodies the identity of a brand that has always prioritized practicality and simplicity in formulation.
The 39 Carmex products available in our catalog cover the entire lip care range of the brand: classic balms in jar, stick, and squeeze tube formats, versions with SPF 15 sun protection, and flavored variants — including fruit flavors — designed to meet different needs and preferences. Those looking for daily protection from cold and wind will find compact and pocket-sized formulas; those needing a more generous application can opt for jar formats. The compositions include well-established ingredients in the cosmetic industry, such as cocoa butter, camphor, menthol, lanolin, and beeswax. For specific needs related to lip health, we encourage you to consult your doctor or trusted pharmacist and to carefully read the instructions on the label.
