GrossFilter: Sometimes when I talk for long periods or get really mad, I get this buildup around my lips and eyes.. which I discover afterwards and feel embarrassed that all that time I had shit growing on my face. It's really strange, maybe since I don't talk much anymore. But when I do, and what I mean is... say I'm in this long heated argument, or something where you're really in the convo and take no breaks, and kind of tense, like bulging eyes and stuff lol. I'm talking hours.. few times it happened, luckily I was on the phone. I got off, went to the bathroom, and in the corners of my lips, where they meet, was like white stuff, like when my lips open and close in the crease it leaves a white shit that's like half skin mixed with saliva turned solid white grossness. Well today, it happened again, but this time I was with someone, and it wasn't my lips.. it was my freakin eyes!! The two outer corners, that white shit was there. I was like wholy fuck. It looked like I had two dabs of lotion on my eyes. Has anyone had this happen?? It never used to happen, maybe it's old age? Any way to treat it other than making sure to wipe my face every half hour?

Answer:
The white stuff on the corners of your mouth is accumulated saliva, in the process of drying because it's been exposed to air. The goop in your eyes is usually caused by the eyes cleaning themselves of detritus while you sleep (I'm not sure why it's happening while you're awake).

Any way to treat it other than making sure to wipe my face every half hour? Sorry, I missed this part. There's no way to "treat" it other than to make sure you're adequately hydrated. For your eyes, you can hydrate them with artificial tears (don't use medicated "eye drops" because that will just make things worse).

It's not regular eye goop, for those who haven't experienced this. It's like someone took a tiny paintbrush and painted white liquid in the very outside corner of the eye. My husband has been dealing with this almost his entire life, so I doubt it's old age. He does blink excessively and I've always wondered if that's part of the problem. He's been told it's protein deposits and there's nothing wrong with his eyes. He doesn't have dry eyes so drops wouldn't make sense. We have a little signal I flash him when he's got the eye stuff. When I'm not around he just remembers to wipe his eyes every now and then.

This is where handkerchiefs are useful. We have wet holes in our faces. Sometimes they need attention.
