Buy Carmex products online in Canada 

Carmex is a well-known American brand of lip balm produced by Carma Laboratories, Inc., specializing in soothing, moisturizing, and protecting lips from dryness, chapping, and cold sores. Founded in 1937 by Alfred Woelbing in Wisconsin, Carmex began as a homemade remedy crafted in Woelbing’s kitchen to address his own chapped lips and cold sores. Using a blend of natural ingredients such as menthol, camphor, and beeswax, delivering a distinct cooling sensation while moisturizing and relieving lip discomfort, Woelbing poured the balm into small glass jars and initially sold it door-to-door to local pharmacies. These ingredients remain at the heart of Carmex products today, which are especially popular during cold weather, windy conditions, and seasonal changes when lips are prone to dryness and cracking.

Carmex grew steadily through word-of-mouth and, by the 1950s, had become a trusted name in lip care. In 1957, production moved from Woelbing’s kitchen to a dedicated facility in Wauwatosa, a Milwaukee suburb, and later to Franklin, Wisconsin, where the company remains headquartered. Carmex remains family-owned, maintaining its commitment to quality manufacturing and ingredient integrity, now managed by Alfred’s son and grandsons, who have expanded the product line to include sticks and squeezable tubes alongside the original jars.

Carmex is recognized for its effectiveness in treating dry lips and cold sores, its distinctive yellow-capped packaging, and its enduring reputation as “the one that works.” Carmex is now sold in over 65 countries worldwide and continues to innovate with new flavors and SPF formulations while maintaining the integrity of the original formula.

Carmex continues to innovate while staying true to its roots in medicated lip protection. The iconic yellow and red packaging has become a symbol of trust, value, and lasting relief, especially among consumers looking for time-tested solutions for lip health. Carmex remains a trusted, family-run brand with a rich history in American personal care and a global presence in the lip balm market.
