My new " lippy" is called "shocking pink". Quite similar to yours. What's yours called?
Ps. I assume you know this, but just in case... your ligature is on upside down
I think I may be practising too much.

That's ..er... manly in a slightly scary way ! I used to work with a trombone player who regularly made his top lip explode... terrifiyingly intense player...I think I may be practising too much.

I hadn't realised, due I think to playing in a new room that I'm not used to yet, that I've been practising at full volume for hours at a time.
I think it's time to back off the loudness and relax.
More 'back to front' isn't it? I'd also argue that it's set too high up the reed too.Ps. I assume you know this, but just in case... your ligature is on upside down
