Problem with The Week crossword again...

[Neutron]

Hi there, shaneystar2, orly, netkey or cruciverbali....
Thanks again for answering my previous plea,
and here is another that is puzzling me.

clue: clips that are skew-whiff? Not half (4)
I've got L-P-
but it surely can't be Lips, as what has that to do with skew-whiff?

I've got all the other answers so if anyone else needs an answer, just ask me.

Thanks in advance,
Ta muchly,
Neutron
