It's very natural to get addicted to any kind of chap stip, lip balm, or lip gloss. You get addicted to it because you like the way it makes your lips feel. It's just something in your head telling you that you need to continue putting it on. I don't think you can become so addicted that it stops doing its job to your lips but it most definately can become addicting. Expecially Carmex. I would say just use when you know for sure that you need it. And if you feel the urge coming on that you need to use it just try to resist it.  

Answer 4

haha...you sound just like one of my best friends! Everytime I see her she's always got carmex with her! lol No dont worry it's not possible to become immune to it.

Answer 5

Not really. But when you use chapstick, or carmex too much, your body stops producing natural moisturizers, so you're stuck using products to keep your lips moist and soft. Once you use it too much, your body can no longer produce natural moisture in your lips.. Try cutting back on the carmex, and letting your lips heal themselves, after a few weeks you should start producing moisture naturally in your lips, then use the carmex only when you need it!! =]
