Lipsmack prevalent with dynamic mic

So I've recently switched to a Sennheiser E835 dynamic mic after using a Samsung condenser for awhile. I've never noticed an issue with lipsmack but I do now with this mic. I would have thought that a condenser mic would have been worse but I don't recall anything this prevalent on that mic. I realize ultimately lipsmack is "source" (i.e. ME) issue but again, it had never been an issue. :|
 
Samsung makes microphones?

Lipsmack also depends upon the song - number of words, type of words, breathing patterns - might not be the mic per se.
 
Sorry, Guys, I meant Samson. :p

This is all spoken so no singing. I try water and it's far worse. I've resorted to speaking above the mic. I've also heard that apple juice, green apples, etc. are good for curbing it. I hate to resort to something like that when I haven't ever noticed this before. :| I'm just puzzled. I know the E835 is supposed to pick up mids better so maybe that's part of it.
 
I'd be interesting to compare the two mic's responses, eq the other one to the Sen', see if it corresponds.
