ha! Jesse you are probably right. I have an exfoliator for lips but I don't think it really works.
ooh Nars is my favorite for lips. I will definitely be checking those out!

My collection of lipsticks that are not-quite-exact-duplicates for Vamp takes up a couple of makeup organizers. I may have a bit of a problem.
How to make your lips less chapped? Drink lots and lots of water, and apply some sort of hydrating lip goo every night before bed. (I tend to use straight jojoba or olive oil.) Also, make your own lip scrub by mixing up a spoonful of sugar with about a teaspoon of olive oil; gently rub that onto your lips, then rinse it off with warm water.

Really, I am constantly putting stuff on my lips. Especially before bed!

I do too. I can't fall asleep if I don't. But I also chew on my lips when anxious and thus they are more chapped than normal now. Also the cold weather doesn't help.

Ah-ha! "Vamp" is discontinued, but "Rouge Noir" is the same thing. [link]

Was there any doubt? When I read the question, I thought "Dark red lipstick? Why doesn't she just call Jilli directly" ;)

I am kind of your go-to-goth for dark red lipstick or black liquid liner questions, this is true.
And now I sense I am going to spend the rest of the evening going through all of my dark red lipsticks. Quick, to the makeup cases!

I think I have an old tube of Vamp stashed somewhere. No wait, it wasn't Vamp, it was Very Vamp. More chocolaty. Dang I loved that color. Why did I stop wearing lipstick again?
Oh Jilli, I should ask you about Morgana Cryptoria. Have you tried her lipsticks?
