Is Lip Balm Making Your Lips Worse?

People often enjoy the cooling, tingling sensation from ingredients like peppermint oil, camphor and menthol, but they can cause irritation so you should avoid them.

The academy specializing in contact dermatitis also suggests avoiding items with fragrance, flavorings (like mint, citrus and cinnamon), salicylic acid, eucalyptus and lanolin (a fat derived from sheep’s wool that the American Contact Dermatitis Society named the “2023 Allergen of the Year”)

Many popular lip products contain these lip-irritating substances. While they may temporarily soothe your lips, they can ultimately cause so much irritation and dryness that it creates the need to reapply the lip balm frequently.

This is why it might seem like your lip balm is worsening your chapped lips or that you’re addicted to lip balm.

It can be a helpful barrier between your lips and the cold wind, but not all products are created equal.
