Since many of my junior high school friends started using lip balm and it was easy to find at the stores, I finally purchased and used it when I was around 12. Back then, I just thought that I should start caring for my dry lips and didn't really have any expectation towards this product. But after using it for 2 days, I developed some kind of tiny bumps on a small area of my right upper lip that ended up oozing and eventually became crust :( I kind of suspected that it was an allergic reaction so I asked my parents about it. They told me to stop using it and my lip finally healed.
Years later, I was curious enough to try this product, again, since one of my close friends used it. And sadly the same reaction also happened :( I warned my brother about this because there's a probability of him experiencing the same allergic reaction like I did. Some time later, he tried this lip balm and also had an allergic reaction. Unfortunately, to this date my brother and I still don't know which of the ingredients listed that we are allergic to.
