Chronic Chapped Lips
Posted on November 23, 2005 by Ching under Family, Life.
I don’t know what to do with my chronic chapped lips. I’m getting really frustrated! It seems almost like whenever the seasons change, or whenever I’m exposed to even the littlest amount of wind, my lips get chapped so quickly. Just as readily, the condition goes from bad to worse. So right now I’m suffering from painful, itchy clown lips. It’s really annoying! We were talking about it over dinner at Italian Garden with Mom and Dad B. You know how whiny I am so I naturally ended up whining about my pain and suffering. It was at this point that my father-in-law proudly produces a stick of Carmex from his pocket. He told us of how effective the product is at preventing and easing chapped lips. He went on to list more benefits. Brian disagreed, saying that Carmex supposedly has a chemical ingredient that makes your lips even drier and, as a result, rendering you completely and totally dependent upon the product. “I never get any satisfaction from Carmex,” he concluded. I go, “But baby! You’re not supposed to be using it for that!” Mom and Dad B laughed hysterically. … Seriously though, does anyone have any suggestions?
