Brand story
About Carmex & Popular Ranges
Carmex is an American lip care brand with a heritage stretching back to 1937, when Alfred Woelbing created the original formula in his kitchen. Over the decades, Carmex has grown from a single product into a well-known lip care brand with a range of formats and flavours, while retaining the distinctive formula that first made it popular. The original Carmex formula contains menthol and camphor, ingredients that give the product its characteristic cooling sensation and help soothe dry, irritated lips.
The formula also includes moisturising ingredients designed to soften and protect the lip barrier, making Carmex a practical choice for those who experience regular dryness or chapping. Carmex products are available in several formats — the classic pot, a squeeze tube, a lip balm stick, and a click-stick applicator. This range of formats makes it easy to use Carmex in different settings, whether at home, in a bag, or on the go.
The brand offers its lip care in the original unflavoured formula as well as cherry, strawberry, watermelon, and seasonal varieties. Beyond the core lip balm range, Carmex offers Daily Care Lip Balm products that incorporate SPF protection, and Healing Lip Balm options for those with particularly dry or sensitive lips. Browse the Carmex range at OhMyKajo to find lip care formats and flavours that suit your daily routine.
