Chapped, irritated lips can happen during any season. In the winter months, cold, dry air steals your lip’s moisture. In the summer, the sun can feast on unprotected lips, burning them and leaving them red and raw.
Our first instinct is to grab a lip balm, and most of us don’t ever stop to consider what’s actually inside the lip balm that makes it work and provides relief to our parched pouts.
The team at RMS Beauty studies popular product ingredients carefully, and we’ll admit we’re extremely discriminating when it comes to the ingredients that make the cut for our own products. Safety and benefit are our top priorities, and we won’t compromise one for another.
For lip care products, it’s extremely important to be aware of product ingredients. Much of what is spread on our lips ends up in our mouths and in your system, so if a product contains a known toxin, it’s a bad idea to use it, even if it feels cool and tingly when applied. Lips are extremely vulnerable to chemicals and cheap undesirable ingredients, as they tend to absorb easier.
We’ll talk about what you really need in a lip balm, what ingredients to avoid, and fill you in on the difference between lip balm and ChapStick.
What is a Lip Balm?
Lip balm is a waxy substance that is placed on the lips to provide moisture, hydration, and to help heal and restore the dry, chapped skin of the lips. The wax helps to seal in moisture to protect the lips from dehydration, which often results in chapped lips.
Lips that are chapped are often:
Dry
Chapped
Peeling
Cracked
Bleeding
Painful, tight, and uncomfortable
Lip balm is a quick fix solution for the dry, chapped skin of the lips.
Your lips can become hydrated fairly easily. Because your lips are made of a special type of skin, called the stratified squamous epithelium, the skin is especially thin and fragile. Keeping it properly hydrated can be difficult, especially during seasons of intense heat or cold.
As for the difference between lip balm and ChapStick? There aren’t any.
ChapStick is a brand name trademark for lip balm. It’s a particular brand of lip balm that has been around for decades. However, the ingredients you find in popular lip product brands may surprise you, so always research the ingredients listed on the back of the product or box.
Popular Lip Balm Ingredients
We have a habit of assuming that anything we buy from the corner store is safe for use. And technically, according to the agencies that “regulate” cosmetics, anything you find in your store has been approved for use.
The problem is that the cosmetics industry in the U.S. is woefully underregulated — in fact, only synthetic color is regulated at all, so in many cases, companies regulate themselves, like a fox guarding the chicken coup. Many ingredients that make their way into the products we use in the U.S. are banned in other countries due to the evidence of their toxicity and risk of harm.
Here are some of the most popular ingredients in lip balms. If you aren’t sure if your lip balm may contain these ingredients, check out the product brand’s website.
Phenol and Menthol and Salicylic Acid (Oh My)
That icy, tingly feeling you get when you sweep on your favorite medicated lip balm comes at a cost. Medicated lip balm is full of chemical ingredients that actually make the lips drier.
Phenol, menthol, and salicylic acid are all drying ingredients. While they do provide the feeling of immediate relief and comfort, they absorb moisture in the lips, leaving you feeling dry just a few hours (or even minutes) later.
If you’ve ever thought you might be “addicted” to your lip balm, you could be right. The more you use a lip balm that contains phenol, menthol, and/or salicylic acid, the more you’ll need to use it to make up for the fact that it’s drying.
Although salicylic acid works well as an exfoliant, you shouldn’t need an exfoliant on your lips every time you need to apply lip balm. Completely removing the top layer of lip skin each time you apply your lip product will leave lips raw and irritated.
Parabens
By now we’ve all received the message: parabens are bad, but few of us actually know what parabens are and why they’re harmful.
Parabens are used in cosmetics as preservatives to extend the shelf life of your products. The use of parabens in your cosmetics is why you can still use that foundation that’s been floating around in your makeup bag for half a decade (although we seriously wouldn’t recommend it).
Unfortunately, this shelf life comes at a cost. Parabens are known endocrine (read: hormone) disrupters. They are able to interfere with estrogen in a woman’s body, and in a man’s body they can interfere with testosterone levels.
You won’t know if your product contains parabens unless you’re familiar with how they appear in a product’s ingredient list. Popular parabens you may see on your ingredients list are butylparaben, isobutylparaben, isopropylparaben, and propylparaben.
Mosty parabens have an Environmental Working Group rating of 9 or higher, which means there is a lot of research and evidence that points to their potential harm and toxicity.
Lip balm is a favorite place for parabens to hide out, and this is an item that is going directly onto your mouth.
Petroleum
You grew up with it, used petroleum jelly on your baby’s bottom, and reach for it every time you have a bit of dry skin, but is petroleum a safe product ingredient? The fast answer is, no.
Petroleum is unsafe mostly because of the process used to refine it and purify it to make it usable in cosmetic products. Most of the time, chemical agents and heat are used, which can contaminate the product and make it unsafe.
In addition, petroleum isn’t a skin beneficial ingredient, even in lip balm. It’s a dead product that creates an airtight barrier on the skin, which doesn’t allow your skin to breathe. The oxygenation of your skin (i.e. your skin getting proper oxygen in the cells) is crucial to maintaining its overall health and moisture levels.
Fragrances and Flavors
Everyone loves the smell and flavor of a potent lip balm, but be wary. The ingredients that make lip balms highly scented and/or flavorful aren’t always safe, and probably won’t leave you wanting to lick your lips.
Fragrance and flavor in cosmetic products is considered proprietary, which means a brand doesn’t have to disclose the exact ingredients that make up their fragrance and flavor on the label of their product.
The FDA, the agency that governs cosmetic products, allows under U.S. regulations for fragrance and flavor ingredients to be listed simply As such, you can never be certain what’s in the product.
The ingredients in a product that goes directly onto your lips, and as such has complete access to your mouth, should be completely safe. Additionally, you shouldn’t have to compromise safety to get your hands on a product that actually works. Products should be safe and effective.
Healing Dry, Chapped Lips the Natural Way
All natural, green-beauty based lip balm is the safest and most effective way to heal and restore health to dry, chapped lips. Synthetic ingredients are much more susceptible to ingestion in a lip balm than they are in any other product, which makes them unsafe options.
Thankfully, the ingredients we find in nature are not only safer and more beneficial for chapped lips, they’re extremely more effective.
Here’s how you can keep your lips hydrated and choose a better overall lip balm.
Get Quality Ingredients
You know what to avoid, so let’s talk about ingredients that can help keep your lips soft, smooth, and hydrated.
Jojoba oil. This oil is rich in antioxidants and the closest to our skin’s natural oil (sebum). As such, the skin rapidly absorbs it and locks in moisture, which allows it to deeply hydrate.
Organic cocoa seed butter. This lip-quenching butter contains nourishing vitamin E that helps restore lips to their natural moisture level.
Candelilla Wax. The better and more natural alternative to synthetic wax and petroleum, this plant-based wax is rich in vitamins and protective antioxidants and helps protect the skin by sealing in moisture (without suffocating the skin).
Beeswax. It’s loaded with amino acids and it actually the best wax ever for the skin!
Products to try:
RMS Tinted Daily Lip Balm. This highly nourishing lip balm contains all three of the above ingredients in a lightly tinted balm that leaves lips feeling hydrated, comfortable, and never steals their natural moisture.
RMS Raw Coconut Cream. For lips that are in serious need of instant relief, our raw coconut cream is the solution. Formulated with 100% pure, raw and unrefined organic coconut oil, this cream is excellent for penetrating chapped, cracked lips without burning or stinging, and helps heal and restore lip’s natural moisture level. It is also known for its high levels of lauric and caprylic acid, which have antifungal and antibacterial properties.
Increase Your Water Intake
Chapped lips can sometimes be a symptom of a deeper problem, like dehydration. If you want to keep your lips as hydrated as possible, consuming enough water each day is crucial. Aim for 91 ounces of water a day, i.e. about 12 cups.
Humidifier
You can use a humidifier in your room while you sleep to increase moisture to your lips. This is especially important in dry, arid climates and in the winter when indoor heaters are in use.
Final Thoughts
Lip balm and ChapStick are both products that are made to help keep your lips moisturized. ChapStick is simply a brand name.
However, what’s inside your lip balm is the key to finding a product that truly takes care of your lips and keeps them properly hydrated without drying them out.
A ball joint is used for allowing free rotation in two planes at the same time while preventing translation in any direction,[1] including rotating in those planes. Combining two such joints with control arms enables motion in all three planes, allowing the front end of an automobile to be steered and a spring and shock (damper) suspension to make the ride comfortable.
A simple kingpin suspension requires that the upper and lower control arms (wishbones) have pivot axes that are parallel, and in strict geometric relationship to the kingpin, or the top and bottom trunnions, which connect the kingpin to the control arms, would be severely stressed and the bearings would suffer severe wear. In practice, many vehicles had elastomeric bearings in the horizontal pivots of the trunnions, which allowed some small amount of flexibility, however this was insufficient to allow much adjustment of caster to be made, and also introduced compliance where the suspension designer may not have desired it in his quest for optimum handling. Camber angle could generally be adjusted by moving both inner pivots of either the upper or lower control arm inwards or outwards by an exactly equal amount. But compliance of the control arm inner pivots, typically due to the use of elastomeric bearings, would again cause the trunnions to be stressed. The suspension designer’s freedom was limited, it was necessary to have some compliance where it might not be wanted, and very little where more would have been useful in absorbing the fore and aft impact loading from bumps.
The introduction of ball joints top and bottom allowed 3-axis articulation and so removed all the constraints on the control arm axes being exactly parallel, so caster could be freely adjusted, typically by asymmetric adjustment of the position of the control arm inner pivots, while camber was adjusted by the symmetric adjustment of these same pivots.
The arrangements for adjusting the toe angle are not changed by introducing ball joints in the suspension, although the steering linkage itself must use 4 or more pivots, also usually ball joints, and in almost every vehicle ever made, some of these have been adjustable by having a threaded end and locknut, to enable the toe to be set precisely.
This ability to fine-tune ball-jointed suspension allows manufacturers to make the automobile more stable and easier to steer, compared to the older kingpin style suspension. It may also be quieter and more comfortable, because lateral and fore and aft compliance in the suspension can be introduced in controlled amounts at the control arm inner pivots without compromising the integrity of the steering axis pivots, which are now ball joints instead of a king pin and trunnions. The smoother ride may also increase tire tread life, since the ball-joint suspension allows better control of suspension geometry and so can provide better tire-to-road contact.
Ignoring wholesale rod ends problems can have several potential consequences, which can impact both the performance and safety of the machinery or vehicle in which they are installed.
Here are some of the potential consequences:
Reduced Performance: Rod ends play a critical role in transmitting motion and forces within mechanical systems. Ignoring problems with rod ends can result in decreased performance of the affected components, leading to compromised functionality and efficiency.
Increased Wear: Rod ends that are damaged or worn out may continue to operate but at a reduced capacity. This can lead to increased wear and tear on other components within the system as they compensate for the compromised rod ends. Over time, this can result in accelerated wear and potential failure of other parts.
Poor Handling and Control: In automotive applications, rod ends are often used in steering and suspension systems. Ignoring issues with rod ends can lead to poor handling, alignment issues, and reduced control of the vehicle. This can compromise the safety of the vehicle and increase the risk of accidents, especially during emergency maneuvers or high-speed driving.
Component Damage: Neglecting wholesale rod end problems can lead to further damage to surrounding components. For example, wholesale rod ends worn or loose rod ends can cause excessive movement and vibration, leading to damage to nearby components such as control arms, tie rods, or steering linkages.
Safety Hazards: Ignoring rod end problems can pose significant safety hazards, particularly in critical applications such as aerospace, automotive, or industrial machinery. Failure of rod ends can lead to loss of control, equipment malfunction, or structural failure, posing risks to operators, bystanders, and property.
Costly Repairs: Delaying repairs or replacements of faulty rod ends can result in more extensive damage to the system over time. This may necessitate more costly repairs or even complete system overhauls to rectify the issues, leading to increased downtime and maintenance expenses.
Regulatory Non-Compliance: In certain industries, such as aviation or automotive manufacturing, adherence to strict regulatory standards is mandatory. Ignoring rod end problems that violate these standards can result in non-compliance penalties, fines, or legal consequences for the organization.
Overall, ignoring wholesale rod end problems can have far-reaching consequences, affecting not only the performance and reliability of the machinery or vehicle but also safety, operational costs, and regulatory compliance. It’s crucial to address any issues with rod ends promptly through inspection, maintenance, and timely replacement to ensure the continued safe and efficient operation of the equipment.
Rod ends, also known as Heim joints or spherical bearings, are critical components in various mechanical systems, including automotive applications.
Premature failure of rod ends can occur due to several reasons, including:
Poor Quality Materials: If rod ends are manufactured using low-quality materials or substandard manufacturing processes, they are more prone to premature failure. This can include using inferior grades of steel or insufficient heat treatment processes, leading to reduced durability and strength.
Lack of Lubrication: Proper lubrication is essential for the smooth operation and longevity of rod ends. Inadequate or improper lubrication can lead to increased friction and wear between the ball and socket, causing premature failure of the joint.
Contamination: Dust, dirt, moisture, and other contaminants can enter the rod end assembly, causing abrasion, corrosion, and accelerated wear of the bearing surfaces. Contaminants can also interfere with the lubrication, leading to increased friction and potential failure.
Overloading: Exceeding the load capacity of the rod end can lead to premature failure. Overloading can cause excessive stress on the bearing components, leading to deformation, fatigue, and eventual failure of the joint.
Misalignment: Improper alignment of the rod end can result in uneven loading and stress on the bearing surfaces. This can cause premature wear and failure of the joint, particularly if misalignment occurs frequently or under high load conditions.
Impact and Shock Loads: Sudden impacts, shocks, or vibration loads can exceed the design limits of the rod end, leading to stress concentrations, china rod ends manufacturer deformation, and eventual failure of the joint.
Improper Installation: Incorrect installation techniques, such as over-tightening or insufficient tightening of fasteners, can lead to misalignment or damage to the rod end assembly, resulting in premature failure.
Environmental Factors: Exposure to harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, humidity, salt spray, or chemicals, can accelerate corrosion and degradation of the rod end components, leading to premature failure.
Fatigue: Continuous cyclic loading or high-frequency oscillation can induce fatigue failure in rod ends, especially if the joint is subjected to repetitive stress beyond its endurance limit.
Age and Wear: Like any mechanical component, rod ends undergo wear and fatigue over time, especially under demanding operating conditions. Aging and wear can gradually degrade the performance and reliability of the joint, leading to eventual failure if not replaced in a timely manner.
To prevent premature failure of rod ends, it’s essential to use high-quality components, ensure proper lubrication and maintenance, avoid overloading and misalignment, and protect the joints from contamination and harsh environmental conditions. Regular inspection and replacement of worn or damaged rod ends can also help maintain optimal performance and reliability in mechanical systems.
