My patients often ask me this.

Lips have very few oil glands, and typically only along the “vermillion” border, which makes them vulnerable to getting dry and cracked.

“A WOMAN YOUR AGE” is the most annoying phrase. It’s typically said in a patronizing way. For example, by the (older, male) Orthopedic Surgeon who told me to stop doing the activities I love the most:  Skiing, squatting heavy weights, and rowing.
