Lipstick is a combination of waxes, oils and colour pigments. Sometimes flavorings/perfumes are also added. Since the actual ingredients in lipstick vary so much, it's not really possible to be more specific than this. However if you want to know what is in your lipstick, it will either say on the box, or on the website of the manufacturer.

The primary ingredients found in lipstick are wax, oil, alcohol, and pigment. The wax used usually involves some combination of three types---beeswax, candelilla wax, or the more expensive camauba. Wax enables the mixture to be formed into the easily recognized shape of the cosmetic. Oils such as mineral, caster, lanolin, or vegetable are added to the wax. Fragrance and pigment are also added, as are preservatives and antioxidants, which prevent lipstick from becoming rancid. And while every lipstick contains these components, a wide variety of other ingredients can also be included to make the substance smoother or glossy or to moisten the lips. Just as there is no standard to the lipstick size and container shape, there are no standard types of, or proportions for, ingredients used. Beyond the base ingredients (wax, oil, and antioxidants) supplemental material amounts vary greatly. The ingredients themselves range from complex organic compounds to entirely natural ingredients, the proportions of which determine the characteristics of the lipstick. Selecting lipsticks is, as with all cosmetics, an individual choice, so manufacturers have responded by making a wide variety of lipsticks available to the consumer. In general, wax and oil make up about 60 percent of the lipstick (by weight), with alcohol and pigment accounting for another 25 percent (by weight). Fragrance is always added to lipstick, but accounts for one percent or less of the mixture. In addition to using lipstick to color the lips, there are also lip liners and pencils. The manufacturing methods described here will just focus on lipstick and lip balms.

Methylparaben and propylparaben extend the lipstick's shelf life and keep potentially harmful microorganisms from growing in the lipstick. Sorbic acid and BHT, or butylated hydroxytoluene, are two more preservatives used to keep the ingredients in the lipstick from degenerating over time. Isododecane allows the lipstick to spread easily. Disteardimonium hectorite keeps the colors and pigments from degenerating, while C12-15 alkyl benzoate thickens the lipstick and adds moisture. Serica, or silk powder, adds softness and shine, while silica is mildly abrasive, allowing the lipstick to adhere to the skin, as outlined in "Milady's Dictionary of Skin Care and Cosmetic Ingredients."
