Addicted to Chapstick
I am a chapstick alcoholic. Or, I guess you could say, a chapstickoholic but the point is I have a problem. I tried going to meetings, joining support groups, and reading self-help books but none of it works. I'm addicted to lip balm. I've run out of restaurants because I've forgotten my lip balm in the car. I have stains on my jeans from leaving it in my pocket and then running them through the dryer. I can't count on both hands and feet how many chapstick, lip gloss, lip balm or any other alternatives I own. I have friends pick up specials brands only sold in Europe when they travel and I stock up on fifty packs at Cosco. It's getting expensive and I can't break the habit so I think it's about time I just started making my own.
I found this awesome website called Not Martha that teaches you how to do anything and everything: poach an egg, make a shoe rack, make party crackers, and knit just about any article of clothing. The great thing about this site is that it's not so over-packed that you have no idea where to start. It's really easy to understand and has a ton of awesome projects. Just go to the "How to make Stuff" page and pick one that you fancy and get started. And once I get some ylang ylang essential oil and beeswax, I will be up to the wazoo in lip balm and thus the happiest human being alive. No longer will I be a slave to the lip balm and chapstick corporations of the world!!!
chapstick, addiction, Not Martha
lol, are you really addicted to chapstick? If you are, I'm sorry you have such a problem. If not, this was a very cute story. Either way, it definitely made me think more about chapstick.
So you guys finally found NotMartha. It's about time. I love this chap stick recipe its amazing. Glad to know Im not the only one.
You're right you are addicted because it has alcohol in it like most lip products do. Try switching to one that doesn't I recommend Mary Kay lip balm it has vitamin A & E.
ı found this awesome website thanks
