As a side effect of my allergies and allergy medication, I have extremely dry lips. I have started smearing them with Aquaphor because Chapstick and my EOS lip stuff isn't cutting it anymore.
Does anyone have any other suggestions? I am applying something to lips over a dozen times a day. Help!

If they're flaky, I mix a little honey & brown sugar to exfoliate my lips then slather on Vaseline lip therapy. I tend to have dry lips regularly. I feel like it's worse if my water intake is lacking too.

I love Cat Crap. It's cheap, works incredibly well, and doesn't taste horrible. Quest Outdoor stores sell it for $2 less than Amazon, but I'd pay the Amazon price.
i had horribly chapped lips this winter, putting on any regular chap stick burned! i ended up getting this stuff and it is AMAZING. deff a new fav for me.
Blistex medicated lip balm has worked wonders for me. Between cold winter weather and long-wear lipstick that dries out my lips, I have terrible chapped lips until I use Blistex. It is white out of the tube but I massage it in and it looks more like regular lip balm.
I suppose I am no help? I apply Aquaphor all.the.time- I'm addicted to chap stick and I hate when my lips feel dry. Aquaphor is the only chapstick I use and I found it better than any thing else I have tried.
I had a horrible reaction to EOS lip balms and my dermatologist recommended Dr. Dans Cortibalm (I found it on amazon) and my lips healed right up. I go back and forth between that and regular Vaseline.

Vaseline all day and all night. When I was taking Accutane my lips were horrible and that's what I used. I kept a little container next to my bed and reapplied constantly. I still do it now, I can't stand having nothing coating my lips. When they got cracked in the corners I'd apply a little neosporin before bed.

Chanel Hydra Balm. I think that's what it is called. With the weather here and all of my allergies, it has been the only thing that has helped my lips. www.chanel.com/en_US/fragrance-beauty/Skincare-Eye-%26-Lip-care-HYDRA-BEAUTY-137753/sku/137792 A little bit goes a long way. I have had a really small sample for at least a couple months now and I still have a little bit left.
