I know this is an older topic but I too have this problem. There are very few balms that don't do this to me and it also happens with a bunch of lipglosses/lipsticks. I always forget to bring it up to my doctor but it was really bad the other day when I went to see him (he's just a GP) about some other issues. He said it's just contact dermatitis and I could just go ahead and use an OTC hydrocortizone on it. I decided to go with one from Aveeno since it seemed like it might be less drying. I've been using it since Thursday night and it's already almost totally cleared up.

I still want to see an allergist about it so I know what to watch out for but I kinda overwhelmed him so I forgot to ask for a referral.

Thank GOD I haven't had this problem. I hoped it cleared up for everyone who had the problem, though!

I'm not gonna so readily swatch random glosses from now on, though!

My mom has allergies to glosses all the time. It works out well for me because she gives them to me if she does. I've never had a problem! (knock on wood!)

For some reason Jubilee lipstick made my lips burn/ feel itchy today :/ I have no idea why because it's never done that before. Colour Works lipgloss makes my lips burn too. I'll try Jubilee again tomorrow, I'm hoping it was a one off.

I was using a Revlon lipstick for quite a while and I noticed all of a sudden that every time I would use it my lips would get really badly chapped and the skin around my mouth would get itchy. I switched to MAC lipstick and haven't had a problem since. I tried a Rimmel lipstick recently and had the same reaction after only a day so I am wondering if I developed an allergy to something that is put in cheaper lipsticks. Not sure what though. Good luck!

MAC tinted lipglass.

Everything else by mac is fine on my lips - lipsticks, slimshines, dazzleglasses, tendertones...

I'll have to look into ingredients list because I really wonder what's that thing in tinted lipglasses that makes my lips all itchy an ad painful plus rashes appear that don't go away for days.

I'm not sure if this was an allergic reaction but....

Ulta Lip Plumping lipgloss HURT!
I know most plumping lipgloss is supposed to tingle, but this one BURNED.
My lips felt raw for days after using it.

I did just try some MAC lipglass.

I ended up having ulcers on my lips exposed and hurts whenever i speak. :S is that an allergic reaction?

No idea, but I get a really bad reaction to lipglasses as well, so it doesn't really matter if you call it an allergic reaction or something else - the result is still the same, sadly - the inability to use them

Moxy: that will help me to save some money from buying lipglasss. hehe.

Hahaha so true! Same here. I'm using Bourjois glosses which are fantastic, although I have no idea how cheaper they are

I'm allergic to the glitter in dazzleglasses... they tore apart my lips.
