wendell, remember i said that some areas of skin can be "persuaded" to come off. You'll find some skin cannot be peeled. I know what you mean with EC and school. I hated school, i used to skip school regularly. I had this all through high school. Now i'm here, after years of research, i find ear drops in my cupboard and decide to look at the ingredients and today(day 14)as i write my lips are normal.
EC in my view should be re-diagnosed as "severe dehydration of the skin of the lip" and in this case water is not a cure it is a cause. Urea is one of the skins natural moisturizing factors. It gives the skin the ability to retain water/moisture it looses during hot showers and licking lips.
I'm just waiting for one of you to get to the stage i'm at so you can understand exactly what i've been typing about.

The color of my bottom lip is gaining its natural color everyday. It does appear i have wrinkles, but i don't care LOL. They reduce everyday also.
