'Chapfloss' brands itself as a product for "happy lips and happy teeth," as it offers a two-in-one lip balm tube that is also equipped with dental floss for convenient use.
The lip balm tube has a tall, slender form that resembles a lighter, complete with working parts that help to dispense both the lip and mouth products. The multipurpose product is meant to appeal to both men and women, offering the perfect pocket- or purse-sized solution to oral and lip health.
To further the development of Chapfloss, a prototype has been introduced on Kickstarter to support tooling, the creation of molds and quality assurance. Should the project be successfully funded, Chapfloss says that it will let its backers decide on the finished product's lip balm flavors.
