'” Teens are using Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm on their eyelids in an effort get high. Those who have taken part in beezin' say the peppermint oil causes a tingling and burning sensation, which creates a sensation of being drunk or high.
Now, another unusual trend has emerged among teens to get buzzed. It's called “Beezin,'' and it involves rubbing Burt's Bees lip balm on their eyelids. The peppermint oil found in the balm creates a tingling sensation that some teens say enhances the feeling when they are already drunk or high.
It takes about 15 seconds to notice the effects of beezin', but after that it's a trip, man.
Our Hemp Collection
And again, the Hemp Seed Oil we use in our Hemp products is not psychoactive, so they won't intoxicate you. (They do have a fresh Basil and Verbena scent, though, which is its own kind of intoxicating.)
It's usually a flavor that is best to avoid. But with this product, it uses natural peppermint oil, which, when used properly like with Burt's Bee's, it can actually be good for your lips. So don't be turned off by that tingly feeling!
Beezin' is the practice of applying Burt's Bees brand lip balm, often menthol or peppermint flavored, to one's eyelids. This practice, besides causing a stinging in the eyes, is purported to induce or heighten the sensation of being drunk or high, or create a state or perceived state of enhanced alertness.
Physicians warn that using the lip balm on one's eyelids could cause potential health effects including inflammation in the eye and swelling. That's due to the peppermint oil in the product, which causes a burning sensation.

Maybe. The market is already seeing the introduction of many lip-balm like products containing THC or marijuana. The big question is, does it get you high? In a word, yes.
According to Fox-25, kids say that the sensation causes disorientation similar to being drunk or stoned and even strengthens their attention spans. But Dr. Brett Cauthen told the Oklahoma City news station that it's probably just the feeling of the lip balm's ingredients on the eye that makes the kids laugh.
It's simply an irritant due to the peppermint oil,” she said. “It's just sort of a tingling sensation in the eyelid. If there's some that runs into the eye, they can feel a burning sensation in the eye.” Murphy said beezin is not toxic or even potentially fatal, but she hopes parents discuss it with their teens.
Beeswax is naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial, and conditions the skin and traps moisture, helping lips to stay hydrated and protected (via Burt's Bees Dermatology). Vitamin E, one of the ingredients, is an antioxidant that both moisturizes and protects lips from environmental damage.

I recommend brushing them with your tooth brush, it exfoliates them and then put on a peppermint chapstick, I use burts bees. It makes them bigger temporarily. Usually lasts about 5 or 6 hours on mine, although I don't need much plumping.
There's no good evidence that lip balm is chemically addictive — in that it causes withdrawal symptoms if you stop. And there's no evidence that it dries out your lips, forcing you to use more over time. But there is reason to believe that it can be habit-forming for a smaller subset of people.
Never forget to wash your face.

Oklahoma City's Fox-25 reports that teens are now getting a new kind of “buzz” by applying Burt's Bees lip balm to their eyelids. Naturally, they're calling it “Beezin” and apparently it adds to the experience of already being drunk or high by adding an additional tingling sensation.
Yes, the lip balm soothes chapped lips, but it has also gained popularity as an incognito pot product that sheds the “stoner” association while still giving the user all the benefits of being high. “I want to take the feeling that it's an illicit drug out of it,” Megan explains.
Since the amount of THC is small, you won't get high from hemp products with CBD oil, including sprays, pills, jams and jellies. But taking CBD can cause you to fail a drug screening if it simply tests "positive or negative" for the chemical and doesn't measure the amount.
Manufacturers often add cannabidiol (CBD) to topical products, including lip balms. While many people believe CBD lip balms have positive effects on inflammation and scarring, these products could also help soothe and repair sore, cracked lips.

While the formulation of this product does contain moisturizing ingredients, it also contains ingredients that are known to potentially trigger allergic contact dermatitis of the lips, including flavors and lanolin. This is why I don't recommend this product for those with dry, chapped lips.

That's hypothetical, but "beezin' (v.)" has indeed been canonized in Urban Dictionary since 2010. As it reads, the act involves "apply[ing] a light layer of Burt's Bees natural lip balm wax on one's eyelids for a freaky yet pleasurable tingling sensation."
