Hi!
I read a few of your posts re: the lip thing. I seem to be gong though the exact same thing. I am tied of everyone saying that it’s just "dry skin". I have also begun to notice that my bottom lip is taking on a vaguely aged apearance, with vertical lines etc. I have been using Aquaphor for almost a year...while it does help keep them moister, it does nothing for the burning, redness and irritation...in fact, I think it may make it worse! The only thing that helps is this stuff my derm gave me when this first started happening 2 or 3 years ago...it's a prescription hydrocortisone cream called Westcort. It helps the itchy burning redness overnight, but as soon as I stop using it it comes back. I am at my wit's end with this!! I wonder if this may be an allergy thing? My fiancé thinks it may be diet related. Have you looked into any of that at all?
