Labello Caring Beauty lip balm

Labello is an iconic brand in the world of lip care, with roots dating back to 1909 when it was introduced by the German company Beiersdorf. The name 'Labello' is derived from the Latin words 'labium' (lips) and 'bellus' (beautiful), reflecting its long-standing mission to provide both protection and aesthetic care for lips. It is famous for inventing the sliding tin tube and later the swivel stick applicator that is now standard across the industry.

Today, Labello is owned by Beiersdorf AG, a global leader in skin care based in Hamburg, Germany. While the brand remains synonymous with German quality, manufacturing is distributed across Beiersdorf's international production networks, with significant facilities located in Europe. In many English-speaking markets and other regions, the same products are often marketed under the 'Labello' or 'Nivea Lip Care' brands, though the formulation and heritage remain centered in German dermatological research.
