Healing yeah i understand lol like if you keep your lips constantly moisturized you won't get any crust at all but even the first week that I started using the lip balm my whole bottom lip would be covered with a thin white layer of skin and now its only just the upper part of my lower lip that barely grows any white skin at all. Everyday I apply the lip balm it takes off the white skin and then I just apply more lip balm directly on top of the lip.
Longterm yeah i guess it is reversed for us haha but neither of my lips are fully healed yet, I've just seen the most improvement on my bottom lip and like I said the triangular part on my upper lip seems to get better each day. Hopefully it's just a matter of time before my lips are back to normal again :)
