I pretty much always have a little tub of this around the office or in my bags. My worst bad habit is chewing on my lips. When I'm nervous, I'll chew them until they bleed (wayyy gross, I know). ...

I loved this product, it would get rid of and pervent any break outs or cold sores around my lips. However, on cosmetic database, the active ingredient camphor is very harmful. So i stopped using...
