Promotional Lip Balm – A Favorite Among Dentists and Orthodontists

Promoting your dental business is essential for gaining new customers, as well as retaining your current clientele. While they might already be a client, there is always something new on the horizon, and with the right marketing, they might be tempted to try a new practice. The key to any successful business is retaining clients while attracting new ones.

One way to keep your business on the minds of your current clients is to keep custom lip balm on hand to give away after dental procedures to help prevent their lips from getting dry and cracked after a treatment. Not only does this help your customer to heal properly, it gives them a reminder of your business so it is always fresh on their mind.

 

Making your Mark

Marketing your dental office is not just a great way to obtain new clients. It’s essential, practical, and affordable. Custom lip balm is so inexpensive, you can’t afford not to give it away. Every time a client leaves your office, they are already beginning to forget the experience (let’s hope anyway!).

Giving them a personalized lip balm featuring your logo or custom graphics will not only help restore their lips after the procedure they just had (even if it’s something as simple as a cleaning) but will help keep the name of your practice on their lips – literally! Ordering promotional lip balm in bulk is the most affordable way to be sure you have plenty on hand for every customer, and ensure you don’t run out.

 

Flavor Variety

Keeping lips smooth and moisturized is great, but when you give someone a lip balm with an unpleasant flavor or a flavor they just don’t like, it won’t be used. Not only do we have a wonderful selection of flavors to choose from, but you can also mix flavors so you get a variety to let customers choose their own. That way, you know it will be used to ensure they think of your practice often.

Custom Packaging

At the Custom Lip Balm Store, we have a section dedicated to custom packaging so you can make a real impact on clients. We have several products that come with a Free Display Tub, so you can keep some at your checkout desk and let people take one as they leave your office.

Another way to promote your practice is with our Dental Tekbooks. These amazing marketing booklets allow you to fully customize a folding booklet providing information about our services, along with a custom lip balm featuring your logo or graphics with a full-color process imprint.

These booklets are imprinted on both sides of the card in a beautiful full-color process, and you can add a coupon, QR code, your website, and contact information, or anything else you deem relevant. We offer a single or double fold so you can choose the best size that meets your needs. They are ideal for mailouts, drop-offs, and event marketing.

The History of Lip Balm

Lip balm was been around for thousands of years! Lip balm was used by Egyptians as far back as 40 BC, including Queen Cleopatra and the pharaohs of Ancient Egypt. Made with beeswax, olive oil, honey, and animal fat, these same natural ingredients are still used today.

US History

In the 1800s, a woman named Lydia Maria child wrote a book called The American Frugal Housewife. In her book, she wrote “Those who are troubled with cracked lips have found this earwax remedy successful when others have failed. It is one of those sorts of cures, which are very likely to be laughed at; but I know of its having produced very beneficial results.”

While this was not something most people were keen on trying, in 1859 a 22 year-old British chemist named Robert Chesebrough traveled to Titusville, Pennsylvania, where he learned about a natural, waxy ingredient with visible skin-repairing properties that helped to heal and soothe cuts and burns. Inspired, Chesebrough began working with petroleum and in 1865, Chesebrough created petroleum jelly. In 1870, he introduced a new product called “Wonder Jelly”, which was officially changed to Vaseline® Jelly in 1872.

In 1880, a physician named Charles Brown Fleet created the first lip balm, which later became the well-known brand “ChapStick”.

The 1900s

The 1900s brought about some of the most famous lip balm brands still used today.

    • 1937 – Alfred Woelbing creates Carmex to treat cold sores
    • 1947 – Blistex created a medicated lip balm to not only soothe lips but also contained a numbing agent to relieve pain
    • 1969 – Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1 is launched
    • 1973 – Bonne Bell creates the first flavored lip balm known as “Lip Smackers”
    • 1991 – The first beeswax-based lip balm was created by Burt’s Bees, and today remains one of the world’s best-selling lip balms

Lip Balm Today

In 2006, EOS (Evolution of Smooth) founder Jonathan Teller, created an egg-shaped lip balm made with 95% organic ingredients. EOS quickly became a best-selling lip balm with its aromatic and tasty lip balm contained in a colorful egg.

Today, there are numerous lip balm companies and products on the market. The most popular natural ingredients include beeswax, cocoa butter, honey, shea butter, and natural oils including coconut, sunflower, peppermint, or canola.

The Benefits of Using Lip Balm

The benefits of using lip balm daily are many. Not just for winter, lip balm is a great product to use every day. It moisturizes, protects, and hydrates, keeping lips soft and supple while providing protection against wind and dry air. It soothes and heals already dry and cracked lips while helping prevent them from getting chapped again. Lip balm is ideal for use at night and helps protect new skin cells while you sleep. It also provides a smooth base and helps lipstick last longer when used as a primer. 

Lip balms containing SPF are a necessity for protection from the sun, providing protection from UVA and UVB rays, and helping prevent sunburn and sun damage, and even cancer. Lip balm also helps prevent aging and reduce wrinkles around the lips.

The popularity of lip balm today is ever-growing. There are many brands, with a myriad of flavors and styles, guaranteeing that there is a lip balm for everyone!

Lip balm is also an effective and affordable way to promote any business or promotional event. Visit the Custom Lip Balm Store today to get started!
