Is Your Lip Balm Ruining Your Life?

In addition to the newish book Can You Get Hooked on Lip Balm?, there’s a website called Lip Balm Anonymous, and this week there’s a Mental Floss piece on the same subject. The way to wean yourself off lip balm apparently involves Vaseline (really?), although some people aren’t interested: “I love my chapstick [and] I reapply often like twenty times in an hour or more,” writes commenter Sophia. “But I dont see why you need to quit, because it isnt negative.” Preach, Sophia.
