Is it possible to become addicted to capstick?

Question

Not to the actual chemicals and stuff, but to putting it on.

I put it on throughout the day automatically i hardly even realising im doing it. and it's always in a certain system three times anti-clockwise then three time clockwise.

Especially when i'm nervous i always put it on in copious amounts.

Answer 1

it becomes a habit.. not an addiction. unless u are actually craving the taste/feel?

Answer 2

It is not the chap stick  you are 'addicted ' but the motions you make while applying it.

Answer 3

I don't know about addicted. But I use it all the time and am so glad someone invented it. I really like the feeling of it. I like having it handy. Plus it keeps my lips from being dry. I don't think I have a set system for applying it...I will have to pay attention and see.  

Answer 4

no... but it became a habit for you and thats not a bad thing...  

Answer 5

sure

Answer 6

It can be habit forming.... but, like any skincare product, the more you use it, the more you need to use it.  An addiction would mean that you have developed a chemical/physical or physiological  dependence on it...so maybe.
