Brilio.net - Not everyone has plump and moist lips. Most people actually experience dry and chapped lips . Usually dry and chapped lips occur due to dehydration or lack of water. Not only that, environmental factors such as hot weather can also make lips dry.
Dry lips make you feel uncomfortable, so it's no wonder that many people use lip balm to moisturize them. There are many lip balm choices with new products that you can try. However, if you buy the wrong one and already use lip balm, you could actually experience allergies or irritation.

This incident was experienced by a woman named Shinta. By uploading a video on the TikTok account @ggraciashinta, his lips had an allergic reaction after trying a lip treatment product.
A few moments after using the lip treatment, the lips felt strange, like a lump appeared like a pimple or canker sore. Initially, there was nothing strange about the lip treatment products he bought. According to Shinta, she fell for advertising on social media because the product treats dry lips.
"I've never had lips in my life experience something like that," said Shinta, quoted by briliobeauty.net from TikTok @ggraciashinta, Thursday (11/7).

Initially the lip treatment product gave good results. Then, he bought another lip treatment variant at a beauty shop. However, before deciding to buy this product, Shinta tried other lip products.
"I've sprayed it with alcohol, I've wiped it with a tissue. But while trying these two lip treatments, I thought it was because I tried another lip stick, that's why my lips grew pimples like that," he said.

However, it turned out that the allergies that appeared were not due to other products. But from the two lip treatments he just bought. This can be seen from Shinta who stopped using lip treatment and managed to recover.
However, because there were still a lot of lip treatment products, he just had to use the two lip treatment products again for fun. After two days, his lips felt uncomfortable again because they felt like there was sand.
"I slept, after that two days later yesterday it was the worst. It was like a pimple was going to grow, but it felt like it really hurt. Like canker sores and it wasn't really nice," he explained.

Shinta regrets the lip treatment product. According to him, using both lip treatment products does not make his lips more moist, but makes them dry and chapped. In fact, he was so shocked that he took the time to find out about the product used. It turns out that lip treatment products contain peanut oil.
"I saw there were reviews, if anyone commented. Sis, for example, my sister is allergic to peanuts. It's normal to get allergic reactions. But I'm not allergic to peanuts at all. So I've never been allergic to eating peanuts," he said.
She is not allergic to nuts at all, making Shinta confused about what exactly is causing her lips to become irritated. Shinta reminded us that before buying a lip treatment product and experiencing an allergic reaction, you must stop immediately.
"Even though it's viral on TikTok, why doesn't it suit me? If you have allergies, it's better to do a patch test first," he added.
This video upload about an allergic reaction to lip balm also received various comments from netizens. It is wrong among netizens who think that Shinta is not suitable for this lip treatment product.
"Most likely it's not suitable, I'm not suitable for EOS lip balm right away, so it's better to take allergy medicine straight away," commented the account @Cece Honey.
"I'm not thinking about taking allergy medicine, I'm going to take it too so I get better quickly, thank you dear for the info," replied the account owner @Ggraciashinta.
"Sis, I have an allergy to pure paw paw," wrote the account @chishiya.
"Oh, I also just got allergic to lip products. Huhuhu, it's because I overapply petroleum jelly on my lips," wrote the account @heidianazka.
