How often do you apply lip chap to your lips?

I use lipstick. I apply it 2–3 times a day. One being before I go to bed. Sometimes I use vaseline instead of lipstick at night, just depends what is handy.

Chapstick users always seem addicted to me. I heard it is sort of addicting, I have no idea if that is true. Someone told me if you use it your lips stop producing oils that can be protective. If that is in anyway true, I assume it is true for lipgloss and lipstick also.

Licking your lips can dry them out. I figure people who replace lip products off, maybe they lick their lips? If I go to bed with lipstick on, I wake up with it on. My lipstick does not come off, unless I take it off pretty much. I do take it off before I eat.

I use it daily over my lipstick. Have one in my car at all times. I don’t really need it, I’m not prone to chapped lips, but it feels good. :-) I’m also addicted to body sprays and I put about 2–3 inches in a spray bottle diluted with water and mist myself with scented water constantly, I dump it in my hot tub to scent the water and spray my sheets and curtains in my bedroom with it. I use it in my car too. lol

@JLeslie Don;t you get lipstick on your pillow? haha

@Coloma Nope. Why, do you kiss your pillow at night? JK. I guess people who sleep on their stomach might risk lipstick on their pillows?

@JLeslie Haha..well my face is mashed into my pillow as I am a belly and side sleeper.

Just when I need it. Usually 2–5 times a day.
I end up wiping it off a lot, because my boyfriend hates it. Says it makes your lips feel greasy. Hah.

I do not have lips.

Not very often. Usually a two to three weeks out of the year. My lips chap mostly in winter (especially if I’m shovelling snow a lot and/or have cold/flu). At these times I use chap stick or Vaseline.

Only when I go out somewhere. At home, it doesn’t bother me as much to have dry lips, sometimes I’ll just put some moisturising cream on them instead.

Lips do not have sebaceous glands or sweat glands. In case you aren’t familiar with the former term, they are glands that create an oily/waxy substance like we find in our hair and on other body parts, except for the private bits. Sometimes lips need the assistance of a moisturizer in order to prevent them from becoming chapped. The main causes for chapped lips are cold weather and/or a lack of water in the body.

How often do I use it? Only while experiencing cold weather. Then it is a couple of times a day. There is nothing addictive about wearing a lip balm. It just becomes a habit for some to reapply it when the lips no longer feel slippery.

@Pied_Pfeffer Thanks for that info.

I apply nightly a couple of times, and once in the AM. The rest of the day I wear lipstick.

@Pied_Pfeffer, yup.. sounds like me!.. habit.

I’m a habitual chain glosser, so usually several times a day.
