LIP BALM ADDICTION

Lip Balm Addiction
If you apply lip balm multiple times a day or panic when you don’t have chapstick on hand, you may be wondering if you’re addicted to your lip balm
Turns out that lip balms don’t contain any addicting ingredients but there are a few reasons why you may need to continually apply your lip balm:
1. You may have formed the habit of licking your lips more often because of the flavor of your lip balm
2. Your lip balm may contain irritating ingredients that irritate your lips making you want to apply it more often
Ingredients to avoid: Camphor, Menthol, Peppermint, Castor oil, Fragrance, Propolis
My recommendations:
-Vaseline original
-CeraVe healing ointment
-Aquaphor (not their lip balm, but their regular ointment)
Finally, if that fails, consider switching your toothpaste! Many toothpastes contain ingredients that irritate the lips!
