# Spicy Condiment Lip Salves The Sriracha Lip Balm Leaves Lips Feeling Warm and Savory By Elise Ying-Hei Ho | Published 2012-12-01 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sriracha-lip-balm References: [incrediblethings](http://www.incrediblethings.com/food/tastes-like-burning-sriracha-lip-balm/) & [baconsalt.3dcartstores](http://baconsalt.3dcartstores.com/JDs-Sriracha-Lip-Balm_p_165.html) There's a new meaning to hot lips with the [Sriracha](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heat-heroes-program) lip balm. Lovers of the spicy and savory taste of the [Sriracha hot sauce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honey-sriracha-sauce) can keep the flavors going with the compact condiment Rooster Sauce lip balm. Though this Sriracha lip balm won't literally burn up your lips, the lovely taste and firey smell will definitely make users want to go for some nice hot spicy food, especially in cold weather. Ironically, this [spicy hot sauce lip moisturizer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lip-balm-spf-30) won't burn the delicate lips but will, in fact, protect them from the sun with an SPF of 15. Just like Sriracha, the lip balm omits the vinegary taste from typical hot sauces, leaving a long-lasting warming sensation without the burn. Pucker up those lips and load up on the lovely taste. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 75% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Spicy Flavored Lip Balms:** Trend towards lip balms inspired by spicy flavors. - **Functional Lip Balms:** Functional lip balms with added skincare benefits and SPF protections. - **Food-inspired Personal Care Products:** Growing demand for personal care items inspired by food and drinks. ### Where This Applies - **Personal Care Products:** Companies in the personal care industry can explore creating spicy-flavored lip balms and other food-inspired personal care products. - **Food and Beverage Industry:** Food and beverage companies can expand their product lines by incorporating non-edible items inspired by their popular flavors such as lip balms. - **Sun Protection Industry:** The sun protection industry can consider adding spicy-flavored lip balms with SPF protection to their product line-up. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spicy Sauce Lip Glosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sephora-collection-x-tabasco-brand-lip-glosses.md) - [Hot Honey Lip Balms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burts-bees-x-mikes-hot-honey.md) - [Plumping Pepper Lip Balms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/red-pepper-paste-lip-balm.md) - [Take-Anywhere Condiment Tubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffalo-balm.md) - [Savory Condiment Lip Glosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filipinta-beauty.md) - [Honey Sriracha Perfumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honey-sriracha-perfume.md) - [Co-Branded Saucy Lip Balms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-shine-lip-balm.md) - [Hot Sauce Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-sauce-advent-calendar.md) - [Sour Lip Balms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sour-lip-balm.md)
