This is honestly my HG chapstick (me and 80% of the rest of the world) and I have to have one near me at all times.
...But I have to admit I *do* think it causes acne if it migrates away from my lips, and sometimes I even break out around my lip line.
But I literally don't care, I don't want to give up this chapstick.
I don't love the peppermint as a skincare ingredient, but it gives the illusion of fresh breath if you need it.
I've been carrying the little yellow chapstick around for 20 years at this point, I don't see myself stopping anytime soon.
