At holiday gift giving, my niece reminded of why she appreciated receiving the natural (and scented) lip balms. “You can never have too many ...” She is in college, majoring in music & plays the saxophone, and reminded me of my days playing an instrument. You need moist lips to play saxaphone, horns, flute and don’t forget your vocalists as well. Winter makes it even tougher. I didn’t know it at the time, but I had an allergic reaction chapstick and then playing a woodwind, ended up with a significant inflammation of lips & skin. So, remember all your musical 🎵persons, young and older, and treat them to some relief & prevention. PS- if all you have with you is your hard lotion, it’ll work too, just warm it with your finger to soften.
