Should I stop using my favorite lip balm with petrolatum?

I’ve seen a lot of advice to stop using make up/skincare with petroleum and I was wondering if anyone have experienced it really making a difference? I love my lip balm so much, and haven’t found another brand that works for me. But I also think using it is a bit addictive because my lips crack up and feel very dry if I go without just for a couple of hours.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a natural lip balm, preferably with as little taste/smell as possible? I’m extremely sensitive to lip products, and there’s a lot of lipsticks/glosses/balms I simply can’t wear, either because of an allergic reaction or overstimulation. The one I have now has a mild vanilla scent, and I can tolerate that.
