We often lose our sticks, too. Thanks for the recommendations, though!

thanks again anthony i stocked up last night – woo hoo!

sam mccauleys ain’t there long treasa. it’s their first branch in dublin. i’ve heard their shops offer a lot more than standard chemists. the one in the green ain’t that big but good luck to him – he’s doing really well in a competitive market.

It’s on the right-hand side as you go in the main door. Just beside (or one up from) Golden Discs.

There’s a Sam McCauley’s in the Stephen’s Green Centre? How did I miss that?

You can get La Roche-Posay’s Ceralip in any of the Hickey’s pharmacy Grafton St or in Sam McCauley’s in the Stephen’s Green Centre.

Kiehls make the best lib balm I have ever used. The bog standard #1 lib balm in tube or pot.

I get mine in the States, but I think you can purchase it in Blue Eru. Course you’ll pay the price getting it there.

I don’t lose my lip balms but I do have about twenty different ones all over the place, in different bags, coat pockets etc. I forget where I put them all! That’s not losing them, is it?

Also, you can’t beat bog standard vaseline. I find the one with aloe vera superb. Green tins cost less than two euro.

I was using lip balm for a while when I was on Roaccutane and I kept losing them as well. I think it was because they were round containers and they easily slipped off desks and such. Well that’s my theory anyway.

it’s good to know this trivial post has some interest for men anthony but seriously, hope your skin did not get too dry for you on the roaccutane. i nearly had to go on it myself and was a bit wary. i read on your blog how pleased you were with the results so hopefully any side effects were worth it?

thanks for the tip laura. i’ll have to look out for kiehls. afraid i never had much success with the vaseline though, even though half the world swears by it. but i never tried the green one so i might splash out and give it a try hope you’re enjoying newly wedded bliss – awww
