A few weeks ago, I received an email from Mom Central asking if I would be willing to participate in the Neosporin Lip Health 3-Day Challenge. The email said something along the lines of “….Many of us dread this season as we come to expect uncomfortable lip-splitting and cracking, fading color and scaly texture….”

By the end of the message, I was practically raising my hand shouting, “Me! That’s ME!” at my computer screen. I responded right away, and I was sent a sample of Neosporin’s Lip Health Overnight Renewal Therapy and the Lip Health Daily Hydration Therapy.

The last 2 Winters, my lips have gotten so bad (dry, burning, and flaky) that I went to see my dermatologist 3 times about the problem. She put me on a topical prescription medication for my lips, and made me promise to not wear any lipstick (only the ointment or petroleum jelly) for weeks and weeks. My lips were so bad that I was willing to give up my favorite, must-wear lipstickthat I never leave home without. But I can’t promise that I didn’t complain.

Here’s what was happening to my lips:

And, no big surprise, it started to happen again this Winter. I could feel the burning and I could see the flakiness starting all over again, and despite my best efforts to control it, my lips were heading in the same direction as before.

And then I got the samples of Neosporin’s Lip Health Overnight Renewal Therapy and the Lip Health Daily Hydration Therapy. I started therapy right away, and although both felt good on, my lips were still burning and flaky. Until day 3. It was on the 3rd day (no joke) that I realized that my lips were smooth and healthy. It worked. It really worked!

I love the fact that a simple over-the-counter product could do what a doctor’s visit and prescription medication couldn’t. It healed my lips!
