ChapStick is one of the most iconic personal care brands in the world, specialized in lip balms and skincare products. Originally invented in the early 1880s by Dr. Charles Browne Fleet in Lynchburg, Virginia, the brand has grown into a global household name synonymous with lip protection.

Throughout its history, ChapStick has been owned by several major pharmaceutical and consumer goods leaders, including A.H. Robins, Wyeth, and Pfizer. Currently, the brand is part of the Haleon portfolio, a company formed through a demerger of GSK's (GlaxoSmithKline) consumer healthcare business. While ChapStick remains an American brand by heritage, its ownership is now under the British multinational consumer healthcare giant Haleon. Manufacturing for these products primarily takes place in the United States, particularly through facilities tailored for skincare production, ensuring the product reaches consumers worldwide with its signature moisture-locking formula.
