Most hand creams contain a product named Petrolatum, which by its other names is Vaseline and Petroleum jelly.
This is a by product of Coal and Oil refinery. While it appears to soften your skin, it actually extracts the natural oils from your skin. The same thing occurs with lipsticks. Ninety percent of all lipsticks contain petrolatum.
You put the product on your lips when your lips are dry and you think your lips are sealed against the elements. Not so. You wipe or lick your lips and your lips dry out, so you put more on. Vicious circle, because the product extracts the natural oils from your lips and so make your lips dry out.
Rather steer clear of any products which contain Perolatum, Mineral Oil, Liquid paraffin or petroleum jelly. Rather use products which contain glycerin as their main constituent. Try and use natural glycerin rather than the chemical equivalent.
