Abstract
Introduction: Traditional Thai lip care product has been used to prevent dry lip since ancient times. Nowadays the younger generation barely knows what the product is, because there are many modern cosmetic lip care products in the market. Improving the product’s figures by making them more beautiful and pleasant is very important to attract consumers. Thus this study aimed to develop Traditional Thai lip care product by adding the plant extracts to make them look colorful and more modern, in order to satisfy and persuade new generation consumers to use the products. Materials and Method: The natural beeswax was selected as the main component of traditional lip balms. Eleven lip formulations were prepared, namely lip balm base, lip balm containing menthol, lip balm containing orange oil flavor and lip balm containing natural extracts (which are derived from Tumeric rhizome, Yellow Cotton flower, Passion fruit, Roselle petal, Sacred lotus leaf, Swamp algae, Annatto seed and Mao Luang fruit). The best formulations were chosen based on a 9-point hedonic scale evaluated by 10 consumers. Lip hydration levels, when applying the best lip balm, were further examined in 30 Thai volunteers. Results: There were five out of the eleven formulations gaining highest 9-point hedonic scores: lip balm containing Annatto seed extract (8.10±0.99), Mao Luang extract (8.00±1.25), orange oil flavor (7.50±1.43), menthol (6.60±1.43) and lip balm base (6.30±0.95) and the results of lip hydrate level showed that the application of the modified traditional Thai lip balm base and lip balm containing Mao Luang extract could maintain lip hydration from 5 minutes to 180 minutes after application in comparison to untreated lip. Conclusion: Therefore, modified traditional Thai balms may be promising products for increased the lip hydration. In addition, lip gloss and lipstick balm-derived natural beeswax could be prepared to obtain a variety of those lip care products.
