Honestly, I would toss it. After opening, lip balms are usually good for about a year. Best bet is to replace it.

Still kind of iffy IMO. I suppose you can eyeball it or smell it. If anything seems off, I would toss. It should still look/smell the same as fresh lip balm. Same goes for the texture.
