... it was my partner’s lip balm.After over five years of my lips having allergic reactions on-and-off, I have found the culprit. My lips would become swollen, itchy, burned, chucks of skin would peel off. Cycle would repeat. I was very self-conscious of my lips.I had no idea what was triggering my delayed allergic reaction. Eventually, I ended up seeing a dermatologist, to hopefully narrow down the cause.After a while, I eventually considered maybe it was the lip balm that my partner used. I patch tested the product on half of the my lips and waited. After less than a day, I started developing early signs of localised allergic reaction. Bingo?I took the chapstick to be patch tested, along with my other personal products. Patch testing was self-inflicted torture, but worth it. The week-long patch testing found that I was allergic to the lip balm, limonene and tea tree oil! I had a very irritable reaction to that lip balm, with skin peeling and inflammation.Ever since I told my partner to stop using the lip balm, I have not suffered from any allergic reactions!!
