Products to heal chapped lips & skin

[Anonymous]

For eczema, our baby's allergist recommended using cetaphil 3x a day and topping it with vaseline at night. I imagine that regimen would also work for dry skin that isn't eczema. It's made a pretty remarkable difference for us.

Yeah, if you still have lanolin, this is the way to go. Otherwise I slather everyone with Carmex, 2 and 4 year olds included. However, since I started a preventative regimen of Eucerin Eczema 2-3 times a day (morning, after school, after bath/before bed), the face chapping has gone way down.

Aquaphor! (It's like Windex...cures everything!)

Aquaphor helps my DD tremendously. And talking to her about it. She went through a big licking her lips phase that we kept warning her about and ended up with a huge red ring around her lips from irritation. We were like, this is what happens when you lick! Aquaphor cleared it up and she stopped licking.

Aquaphor is amazing as a cure and a preventative. Gob it on at night to heal and rub it in as protection, especially for cold/wind exposure or a cold. It really saves my nostrils when I have a cold.

On board with all the Aquaphor recs, get the pack of 2 mini bottles and keep them in your coat pockets so you can put some on rosy cheeks whenever you need to

OP here - thanks everyone!
Will try these suggestions - some of which I already have on had. Had not thought about the fact that she may not be drinking enough water.

Once healed, get her some Neutrogena lip moisturizer to keep in backpack to prevent another round- it's gentle , has no scents etc that irritate and has sunscreen for protection. I just bought a ficebpacl on Amazon so we each have one.

I second the ficebpacl. Can’t live without mine.

NP, would you please link? I can’t find this.

Yes link pls.
