They are definitely changing. Whether its good or not nobody knows, but based on the changes I think its good.

They dont build up nearly as much. But at night whatever tiny tiny buildup that is there from that day (or just beginning of buildup) it is exfoliating at night on parts of my lip. This is weird because I used to apply vaseline every night for months and months and they would never peel until about a week of buildup. Its as if my buildup is as delicately attached to my lip in one day as they used to be after 10 days. But the buildup is so thin after one day that you cant even see it. Its just like that thin clear layer that builds up after day 1.

I hope you understand, its kind of hard to explain.

Its like the buildup is forming at the same rate (slowly) but after the first day it now exfoliates. So its almost appears as though they dont build up at all in many places.

And the parts that dont exfoliate while I am sleeping (the sides) they also dont build up nearly as much and they naturally exfoliate after a day or two.

But my major concern is that the redness and irritated skin is still underneath. And although it isnt nearly as red and irritated as it was when I was leaving them alone and it would exfoliate, it is still noticeable.

Anyways I have seen more changes in these past 4 weeks than I have at any point so Im optimistic.
