Lip Balm Anonymous

[Guest guest]

If you havent checked this out their site (sorry, dont have URL) is

absolutely burlesque, with stories like the following. It appears to be

real, they talk abt being " in recovery " but mercifully I dont see any

" Powerlessness " or " higher power " references, so it probably isnt 12

step.

P.

At age 14, W. is already in recovery!

I was a lip balm user.

I had every flavor: apple, watermelon, vanilla, Dr. Pepper,

Coke, pink lemonade,

coconut (I cried when I lost that one) Jellybean, peanut

butter, mint, mint chocolate

chip, chocolate, milkshake, tropical fruit, mango, kiwi,

apricot, apple cider, coffee,

fudge brownie, gingerbread, shortbread, Carmex, cherry ice,

Chap Stick, cherry,

Avon, Soft Lips Sparkle Mint, bubblegum, pumpkin, Vaseline,

pineapple, grape,

lemon, orange, mandarin AND EVERY OTHER FLAVOR OUT

THERE!!!!!!

It all started when my neighbor became an Avon lady. I

ordered every flavor there

was. I was her best customer.

Then we moved.

So I resorted to Lip Smackers, Liplix, Carmex, Chap Stick,

and most of all, Softlips. I also enjoyed

the Body Shop and Bath & Body Works. Then one day, I said

" ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! I AM

IN DEBT, I GO INTO WITHDRAWS WITH OUT MY LIP BALM, I NEED

HELP! (at least

my lips were soft) So just like that I quit. I tossed my lip

balms, only keeping a few, for the once a

day gloss.

I am now down to a $.99 Barney Children's Lipgloss from

Target. I use it only when needed. You

can stop. I know you can. My only problem now are the many

tubes of lipstick appearing in my

house. All shades, shapes and sizes.

OH NO. NOT AGAIN. HELP ME!!!! Let us ban together and get a

warning label on these lip

devices.
