That weird white stuff that builds up on the inside of your lips (mouth), or in the corners? And how do I prevent it. I hate talking to people all day at school only to get home and notice I've probably had this on my mouth all day.

I think it's kinda like eye boogies, just build up from sleeping etc.
Dried spit. My dad gets it wicked and I'm constantly checking myself all day.
Sometimes its just leftover toothpaste foam. Might wanna double check after you brush.
I've always thought it was just plaque
I always thought it was dried spit and dead skin cells. It's a normal body function, whatever it is. Just check regularly.
I hate "lip crud!" I'm sure I get it all the time, but for me it's probably because I use lip balm too often. =P
Plaque? God I hope my breath isn't scary. I associate plaque with bad breath.... is this right? I have no cavities, I just got my teeth checked in december.
Everyone has plaque... It's a bacteria forming constantly on your teeth. If you brush, then it keeps it at bay. Plaque can CAUSE bad breath if you don't brush and stuff because it will cause decay and disease.
I usually get this from a buildup of lipbalm and skin.... when everything is too moisturised. I've noticed using certain lipbalms don't cause it as much. My favorites are Smith's Rosebud Salve, and the absolute best lipbalm I've tried so far is Roc Enydrial Repairing Lip Care... highly recommended!
I used to get that from packing on layers and layers of lipgloss.So now I just carry tissue around and wipe my lips off before I reapply.That also exfoliates my lips and keeps them soft.
