Are your lips constantly chapped, red and dry?
(Thank you DermNetNZ for the image!)
What is this?
This is Lip Licker's Dermatitis
It's a reaction of the lips and skin to an irritating trigger
Common causes are: saliva, cold & dry weather & irritating products
Here are 3 Derm-Approved options:
✅ Stop ALL your lipcare products today (and stop licking your lips!)
✅ Use only plain petrolatum jelly as a moisturizer
✅ Ideally see a Doctor for a prescription strength topical. Otherwise, over-the-counter HC can sometimes help.
