How to kick the winter lip-split

I cannot wait for the Craftsman Christmas Show at the Richmond Raceway this weekend! You never know what new and interesting jewelry, crafts, and art you will find. Two crafters I'm especially hoping to see is one particular potter from whom I mistakenly bought two beautiful mugs last year when I should have bought a set of 10. I went to all the spring shows hoping to find him again, but failed miserably. Potter man (whose company name I can't remember), don't let me down! I tossed all of my husband's Denny's-style mugs to make room in our small cabinet for your gorgeous creations and I'll never hear the end of it if you're a no-show this weekend.

I digress. The other vendor that I'm almost certain will be here (if not, they'll be here in December for the Christmas Bazaar) is the Mountain Mist company. This company is single-handedly responsible for ending my annual lip-split, which I used to enjoy each winter. I wear it everyday-- EVERYDAY. I also love lip treatments by MAC and FRESH, but Mountain Mist's lip balm is a fraction of the price and works as well or better. Ingredients include "sweet almond oil, lanolin, aloe, and Vitamin E and all-natural lip balm flavors".

They're now offering a pack of all five flavors for $12 at http://www.mtnmist.com/. I especially love the cherry shimmer and honey flavors and am still holding out hope that they'll make almond or orange spice flavors as well. I stock up twice a year when I see Mountain Mist at the spring and winter shows, even though one tube lasts me about a year. Hope you enjoy them!
