for those curious about my lips… i hate them.  quitting chapstick (carmex) was a terrible decision.  it is completely not worthwhile.  it’s been almost three months and my lips continue to get sloughy.  they are never soft and smooth.  at least when i was slathering them with carmex eighty times a day, they were always kissable.  now they just annoy the tar out of me.  i’m probably going to get some of the burt’s bees crap or something that they consider to be “good” for your lips and start using it.  being a non-user is just not worth it.
