$\begingroup$ How in the world did you get the "contribute to your interior" part :o $\endgroup$ – Pierre Arlaud Jul 27 '16 at 14:09
$\begingroup$ @PierreArlaud I actually solved that one after I found out what the word was. I got the two other answers and figured out what the word was, and afterwards I thought of an explanation that fit the unsolved clue. $\endgroup$ – Wu33o Jul 27 '16 at 14:21

$\begingroup$ @Wu33o ok lemme rephrase that: how in the world did you think about "lip" first as body part? Tbh I would think of "leg" first $\endgroup$ – Pierre Arlaud Jul 27 '16 at 14:47

$\begingroup$ @PierreArlaud: If you've already got "Phil", you just need to go through the three-letter words starting "l" that are body parts. "'Philleg?' Hmm, nope. 'Phillip?' Ah, yes, something starts with that. Phillipines! Now I wonder what 'pines' have to do with anything.. hmm..." $\endgroup$ – Lightness Races with Monica Jul 27 '16 at 17:36
