I’ve been in a meeting for around 4 hours and have had to reapply lip balm (I use aquaphore) about 6 times. I’m not drinking or talking, and not licking my lips. Where is it going?

You eat it. The water mostly evaporates or is absorbed by your skin, but the wax component (it usually a blend of waxes and oils from both petroleum, bees and plant waxes) stays on the surface of your lips and by moving them around pieces end up in your mouth, tongue, hands (people touch their faces unconsciously many times per day).
