Ok, how do I fix my lips?

[NotQuiteCockney]

A week of sun/sand/salt/wind has totally broken my lower lip. I'm using molton brown lip goop (which is basically vaseline, I think) every 15 minutes or something.

It does seem to be getting better, but are there any tips for fixing it faster?

And how do I avoid doing this again? Do I need to wear zinc if I'm surfing etc? Or are there normal lip salves (not coloured!) which protect more?

. Ow. Poor you. Don't know the answer, but sympathy, and bumping for you (just don't laugh at anything...)

You can buy lip salves with high sun protection. Ambre Solaire etc do them. As far as healing now, I think vaseline is probably the answer.

Ok, cool, my lip does feel a fair bit better now. I'll have to get some lip salve with SPF.
