The key to healthy lips is proper care. Simply rubbing any lip balm or ChapStick on your lips may create mor aof a problem and a solution.
The article states that Phenols in medicated lip balms dry out the lips, and product that have Petrolatum and petroleum derivatives create a moisture barrier and interfere with your body's own moisturizing abilities,creating even drier lips. Many of the ingredients include parabens, which are used to extend shelf life,, but are considered toxic(!) and have also been liked to allergic reactions.
When I first started researching recipes for my lotion (my first product) I realized how dangerous many of the "everyday" chemicals that are used in health and beauty products. One of the first things I learned was that I didn't want anything with Mineral oils, petroleum jelly, or Lanolin. They don't help but hurt our skin.
Let's face it...we end up "eating" our lip balm. While certainly not intentionally. It just happens while we wear it. By Choosing organic and non toxic lip products, you'll not only moisturize your lips, but you'll also eliminate any chance of consuming toxic ingredients when you lick them. (Can you imagine?!)
