Lip Stick
The phrase “world of pain” is, like every phrase, over-used. Lots of things that aren’t worlds of pain by any stretch are described as such. The psychological trauma of warfare? A subcontinent of pain, perhaps. A tedious job, a toothache? Mere islets of pain. My lower lip, however, is a world of pain. Chapped by wind and rain and sun. Soaked in cheap, tannic burgundy. Torn by a stray toothbrush. Incinerated in fine Szechuan cuisine. Bitten down upon. It’s a World of Pain.

i wouldn’t noramlly offer anything other than surreal advice to you Mister Menace, but since I suffer the same try extra B vitamins [good for the lips] and Nutrogena night salve [put it on at bedtime and in the morn you’ll be fixed]. Good luck lippy.
