Overuse: Overuse of lip balms can perpetuate dry lips, as they inhibit the body's normal response to maintain hydration. Persistently chapped lips that do not improve within a couple of weeks after discontinuation may be indicative of a medical condition that requires evaluation and treatment. Occasional use of a natural product like coconut or olive oil during the transition should not have this effect.
