the MANUFACTURING PROCESS

MELTING
AND
MIXING
Raw ingredients are
melted and mixed
separately.
One mixture contains the
solvents, a second
contains the oils, and a
third contains the fats
and waxy materials.
These are heated in
separate
stainless steelor
ceramiccontainers.
Thesolventsolution and
liquid oils are then mixed
with the color pigments.

POURING

MOULDING

Mixture passes through a

roller mill, grinding the
pigment to avoid a
"grainy" feel to the lipstick

Once the lipstick mass is

mixed and free of air, it is
ready to be poured into
the tube

After the pigment mass is

ground and mixed, it is
added to the hot wax mass
until a uniform color and
consistency is obtained

The melted mass is

dispensed into a mold
The lipstick is cooled
The lipstick is visually
inspected for air holes,
mold separation lines, or
blemishes, and is
reworked if necessary.

PROCESS LAYOUT OF LIPSTICK

LABELING AND
PACKAGING
The tube has two parts, a cover and a base. The base is made up of
two components, the twisting or sliding of which will push the
lipstick up for application.
After the lipstick is retracted and the tube is capped, the lipstick is
ready for labeling and packaging
The heated liquid is poured into the tube in the retracted position;
the tube is then capped by machinea far less laborious process.
The final step in the manufacturing process is the packaging of the
lipstick tube
Packaging may or may not be highly automated, and the package
used depends on the end use of the product rather than on the
manufacturing process.

FINAL PRODUCT

Quality Control
Quality control procedures are strict, since the product must meet Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) standards. Lipstick is the only cosmetic ingested, and
because of this strict controls on ingredients, as well as the manufacturing
processes, are imposed. Lipstick is mixed and processed in a controlled
environment so it will be free of contamination. Incoming material is tested to
ensure that it meets required specifications. Samples of every batch produced are
saved and stored at room temperature for the life of the product (and often beyond
that) to maintain a control on the batch.
There are two special tests for lipstick: theHeat Testand theRupture Test
