Studio Shoots for lip balm brands on Pinterest
Studio Shoots on Pinterest offers premium visual polish and full creative control. For lip balm products like beeswax lip balms, this can work — but expensive ($2k–$20k+ per day) and weeks-to-months lead time.
Podcast-style ads for lip balm on Pinterest
Podcast-style ads on Pinterest give lip balm brands full message control in 1:1 and 9:16, 15–60s format. Lip balm is the ultimate pocket product — and the best ones spread through word of mouth, literally. Podcast-style ads replicate that friend-recommendation moment — pulling the tube from a pocket and saying this is the one that finally ended the chapped lip cycle. On Pinterest specifically, the conversational format earns higher watch time than studio shoots.
