LOL you're not the only one. That kind of threw me off as well. Especially hydrochloric acid. There's a reason they put the skull and crossbones on those containers and it doesn't mean "good for lip balm".

You got it right. I have never checked it out, just remember it and that it worked. And of googling it
i get no hint that it could work, only that it is dangerous. Lots of different reasons for chapped lips ..

Maybe i have the acid wrong now, try sulphuric, nope same sort of warnings ..

The story is true though, only wrong detail could be - could be - the acid, though almost certain it was dilute hydrochloric. I remember being told if not careful it would take enamel from teeth. Diluted, don't recall how much but it would have been plenty. It had a sour taste. And it worked. Like the - use needle to puncture athlete foot blisters then iodine to kill the fungal infection in the moisture - remedy. It worked too.

100% those were two home remedies dad used on problems drugstore solutions meant for the two problems did not fix.
