Lip problem
I have had a strange problem with my lips recently where my lips will get incredibly dry and build up a hard shell. If I then apply any sort of lip balm or chap stick the top layers of skin will soften and start to peel off leaving the raw skin underneath. The lips will then build layers and harden again. This just endlessly repeats in this cycle and is getting annoying.wt to do
