anyone else addicted to chapstick? I have been using for as long as I can remember. It started when I was young and lived back east and use to ride motorcycles in the winter time. Now that i'm in the desert i have not been able to quit using it. I don't even have chapped lips, but if I try to quit my lips start to burn after about a day. Do you think the makers are putting something in it. Or is it just me. I typed chap stick addiction in on the SE and couldn't believe how much there was about it.

I am :D
I've switched over to beeswax/ lanolin based chapsticks though 'cause patrolium based ones just make your lips worse as it wears off.

Lol, I'm not, and never really thought about it...but now that I am thinking about it I know all sorts of people that use it all the time even if their lips aren't chapped. One uses that tube vasaline, others use actual Chapstick or that Lip Conditioner stuff
The back of my hands got chapped once so I used that stuff, burned like a mofo

Yeah, I like the Cherry flavored stuff, always great for a snack.
Hey, wait, um. . . . . .
Really though, I don't use the stuff.

I am! I get the flavored kind and have tubes in the car, in my purse, at work, next to the computer, etc. But then again the relative humidity hovers around 0 here so everyone is either addicted to chapstick, or they have gross flaky lips.

LOL thanks for the site, I seriously can't quit the shit. At any given time I probably have 10 tubes of the crap between work and home.

I use it a fair bit. Usuallt if really dry at home, in winter/colder other months or when skiing :D:D:D
If I ever need some, there seems to be a never ending supply in my ski pants. :confused:

Never used the stuff before I lived here because you didn't need it in Hawaii. Blessed moisture. But since Utah is dry as a mofo I use it all the time.

I'm all about that Blitex "Silk and Shine" lip balm. Seems to do a really nice job without being all flavored so you lick it off. I forgot it out on the slopes one single day this past week, and the wind burn hasn't gone away yet. :o I'm off to go apply some serious medicated balm now.

I have a tube in my car, only think to use it if my lips are actually chapped. I procrastinate a lot of shit, like getting stuff for acne, and shit like that, maybe I should take better care of my health.

Did anyone else ever suffer from the delusion that acne would go away after you became an adult? I did... I always figured that zits were just part of puberty, and only in rare cases would still occur in fully matured adults. Fortunately, I've never had much of an acne problem, but it was still a shock to learn that it never really goes away.

Yeah your parents will tell you anything when your a teen to get you to shut the hell up and leave them alone.:D :D
I was also fortunate not to have a problem with it glad to cuz there were a few kids in highschool who had it real bad and they never heard the end of it. Kids are cruel.

My parents (in their 40s) still get the occaisional zit but infrequently. Still, though, what a ripoff.

My dad had acne real bad when he was young, still gets zits from time to time. I knew when I hit puberty that I was going to end up with a lot, so at the first sign that I was starting (already had more than most of the kids) I went on Accutane as a preventative thing...that stuff works miracles, I haven't had a zit in 4 years :eek:
