The product is ChapStick, the iconic lip balm brand. According to the barcode 011210115231, this specific item is the ChapStick Original version. The brand has a long history, originally invented in the early 1880s by Charles Browne Fleet in Lynchburg, Virginia, USA.

Historically, the brand was owned by companies like A.H. Robins, Wyeth, and eventually Pfizer. In 2019, through a joint venture, it became part of Haleon (formerly GSK Consumer Healthcare). Following the spin-off of Haleon from GSK, the brand was sold to Suave Brands Company in 2024. Suave Brands Company is a portfolio company of Yellow Wood Partners, a Boston-based private equity firm. Most ChapStick products are manufactured in the United States, specifically in Richmond, Virginia.
