“I first tried Lip Renew Recovery in 2021 when I was in a busy run of playing commitments; working 8 shows a week at a theatre, teaching on my off day, and subbing various jobs around town. I saw the product online and, while a little skeptical, thought let’s give it a shot. I applied it after a particularly taxing performance one night and almost immediately felt it go to work. I reapplied before going to sleep, and woke up the next morning with my chops feeling amazing. I had two gigs that day, and my chops felt fresh and ready for both. I instantly became a believer in Lip Renew Recovery and started using it regularly. In 2022, I got the chance to meet Ken at the ITF in Conway, Arkansas and told him how much I loved Lip Renew Recovery. He recommended that I try Lip Renew, so I picked up a few bottles and took them with me. Once again, this product blew me away from day one. It was effective, natural, and has also become a product I use regularly. While I have not tried Lip Quench yet, I look forward to trying it and know that it will more than likely far exceed my expectations.
To those of you who are skeptical of these products, I do understand, as I once shared the same sentiment. That being said, try them. You will not regret it and you will become a believer!”
