Dangers in lip balm usage

Will lip balm be dangerous for your lips? Yes, sometimes it can be. For example, if you make your own homemade lip balm or if you use a commercial one, you can experience the two following problems.

Addiction

Lip balms do not contain any ingredients that cause addiction, but in some cases, it can lead to emotional addictions. Here are a few examples.

Compulsive Behaviour

If you use lip balm frequently and quite often, then there will be a compulsive urge for you to use it again and again repeatedly. It is just like a trap. Use it only when your lips need it, like when your lips are dry or chapped. And stop using it after it gets cured. 

Excessive licking

Licking is also another reason for your lips to get dry and chapped. If you lick your lips after applying the lip balm, the added moisture can make your lips dry. And again it will lead to the usage of some more lip balm, and it will eventually result in more licking. It can be dangerous.

Also, if there are some harmful chemicals present in the lip balm which you are using, it will lead to some health problems. So to be on the safer side, you can use the best organic lip balms that do not contain any harmful chemicals.
