jan 1, 1870 - Discovery of "ChapStick"
Description:
Dr. Charles Browne Fleet, a physician and trained pharmacist, was often found in his shop creating new skin care products for the citizens of his town. The first "ChapStick" resembled a smooth balm, wrapped in tinfoil, however it was not very profitable. A few years later Charles sold his product to his friend, John Morton describing its ability to moisturise and heal chapped lips.
