The Logistics of Lipstick
You might have witnessed a viral video going around that showed a man in the jungle harvesting tiny beatles into a red paste.
Turns out that red paste is used to make red lipstick and is also the main ingredient for red food coloring.
In today’s episode, we’re diving into that process of lipstick making along with the challenges lipstick brands are facing on the manufacturing and distribution side of things—which plays right into another fun fact you’ll learn which is the Lipstick Index.
- Watch the TikTok of this topic where I talk about the logistics of lipstick and then a follow-up video where I break down the Lipstick Index
