Subject: RE: [Harp-L] winter lip syndrome



For years I've sworn by a little tube of stuff you can buy here called Cymex. 
It's supposed to be for soothing cold sores (it's not that antiviral stuff 
though). It is a thin white cream, totally non-greasy, tasteless, scentless and 
it does NOT clog up the mouthpiece holes. A tiny tube of it costs about two quid 
and will last me at least six months. Just the merest dab on the lips sees you 
through a long evening and you can use it as often as you like. In fact, they 
were selling it in Poundland for a quid and I now have a lifetime's supply.  
:-)  There's bound to be a US equivalent.
