Blistex Lip Balm

Blistex is a globally recognized brand specializing in lip care products, ranging from everyday lip balms to medicated ointments for cold sores and severely chapped lips. Founded in 1947, the brand has remained a family-owned enterprise throughout its history, maintaining a focus on research and development specifically for lip health.

Today, Blistex Inc. continues to operate as an independent, private company headquartered in Oak Brook, Illinois. Unlike many personal care brands that have been acquired by large multinational conglomerates, Blistex has retained its individual ownership, allowing it to maintain specific control over its formulations and brand identity. Most of its manufacturing is concentrated in the United States, from where it exports to dozens of markets worldwide.
