Time for a confession: until recently, I was a lip balm addict (I now use Kiss My Face night cream as my methadone). Indeed, more than twenty years ago, one of my sisters, who was still a practicing doctor at the time, warned me that I was becoming a junkie. Did I pay attention? No--and as a result I've spent tens of dollars for fixes over the years. I just thank god I never got my hands on any blue.
