Last updated: August 2026 dataSouth Korea leads US imports of lip make-up preparations, reflecting the country's well-established cosmetics manufacturing sector and the global popularity of K-beauty lip products, with China and Italy also prominent suppliers. Classified under a single 10-digit line (3304100000), this heading covers lipsticks, lip glosses, lip liners, and similar color cosmetics intended for the lips.

Yes. FDA requires that color additives used in lip preparations be specifically approved for lip-contact use. Unapproved colorants can cause shipments to be refused entry. Importers should verify that all colorants in their products appear on FDA's approved list for lip cosmetics prior to importation.
Lip make-up preparations under 330410 are primarily intended for coloring or beautifying the lips. Products making therapeutic or drug claims — such as sunscreen lip balms with an SPF drug claim or medicated treatments — may be classified elsewhere and subject to additional FDA regulatory requirements. The product's primary intended use and any drug claims on labeling are the key classification factors.
