Can Chamomile Extract be added to Lip Balm?

Yes, chamomile extract can be added to lip balm. For oil-based lip balm formulations, it is recommended to use an oil-soluble form of chamomile extract.

• Natural Bisabolol (Brazil Chamomile) is an oil-soluble extract derived from German Chamomile. It contains natural Bisabolol and is suitable for use in oil-based cosmetic products like lip balms. It is known for its properties that help reduce skin irritation.
• Chamomile Water (Anthemis Nobilis) is a water-based extract. While it can be used in various cosmetic forms, incorporating a water-based ingredient into a simple oil-based lip balm might require additional emulsifiers to prevent separation. It is known for its relaxing and refreshing properties.

Therefore, Natural Bisabolol is generally a more suitable and easier-to-incorporate option for typical oil-based lip balm formulations.
