Our Story
Typhoon Beauty started with a joke — literally. I was a traveling comedian, crisscrossing the country and selling lip scrubs as merch at shows. What began as a fun way to connect with audiences quickly turned into something bigger: people weren’t just laughing, they were falling in love with the scrubs themselves.
Growing up in Western Pennsylvania, I was surrounded by family traditions, homemade sweets, and small-town pride. I wanted that same sense of joy and flavor to live inside every jar. That’s why our scrubs are 100% edible, crafted with natural ingredients you can trust — whether you’re smoothing your lips or sneaking a little taste.
I still do comedy, and Typhoon Beauty carries that same spirit of fun. Lip care shouldn’t feel boring — it should feel like a treat. That’s why our flavors are inspired by desserts and local favorites, making every scrub more like an experience than a routine.
We’re proud to call Irwin, Pittsburgh, and the surrounding Pennsylvania communities home, and we’re just as proud to share our story nationwide. From small-batch beginnings to scaling up, one thing hasn’t changed: the recipe, the flavor, and the heart we put into every jar.
At Typhoon Beauty, our mission is simple:
Create the best edible lip scrub in Pennsylvania (and beyond).
Celebrate flavor, fun, and confidence.
Keep people smiling — on stage and off.
And here’s our promise: this isn’t just another lip scrub. Typhoon Beauty is the only lip scrub on the market that’s truly made to be eaten — guaranteed.
From our kitchen in Pennsylvania to your pocket, welcome to Typhoon Beauty — where lip care meets dessert, and a comedian’s joke became something sweeter.

Sustainability
Our Philosophy
“If it’s going on your lips, it should be safe enough to eat.”
We make food-grade, small-batch lip care because people deserve safe, honest, and fun products. Every choice we make is about creating a better experience for you — from the ingredients we use to the way we price.
Ingredients
Food-grade, edible-safe → safer for you, and naturally cleaner by design.
Minimalist formulations → fewer fillers, more function.
If you can find it in your kitchen, you can probably find it in our jars.
And yes — many of our customers end up kissing their significant other right after using it, because it makes their lips taste so good.
Packaging
Our jars aren’t just containers — they’re little treasures.
Durable & reusable → sturdy enough to keep long after the scrub is gone.
Practical size → perfect for gems, beads, spices, or travel balms.
Collectible → each flavor becomes its own keepsake jar.
We’d rather give you something worth keeping than something meant for the trash.
Local, Small-Batch Production
We make every batch fresh, in small runs. This keeps quality high, waste low, and ensures you’re getting products made with care — not churned out by a factory line.
Affordability as Honesty
All prices, tax included.
We believe honesty should be standard. That’s why every product we make is priced with tax already included.
No pennies.
No dimes.
No nickels.
No tricks.
Just simple, transparent pricing so everyone can enjoy safe, fun lip care without checkout surprises.
Future Goals
We’re always looking for ways to keep things simple, fun, and practical:
Exploring compostable shipping materials.
Creating more collectible jar designs customers want to reuse.
We’re not perfect yet, but every season we’re testing new ways to do better for you.
