White patch and dark lips
My lips suddenly turned very dark last week. There is a pink patch in the shape of a crescent moon on my lower lip. I have a habit of licking my lips. My lips are chapped and dry almost all the time. But the darkness is bothering me. I started using a new lipstick recently. Do you think it is an allergic reaction?
