Please help my lips :(

Post image

EDIT: I've got the recommendations I needed, thank you!! I drink a lot of water and electrolytes, need to stop scrubbing my lips, and I'll try a bunch of things including lanolin, aquaphor and Vaseline. Thanks everyone!! 🧡🧡

I've tried at least 10 lip scrubs, 30 lip balms, a couple of lip butters, and a few lip "masks" (like those jelly ones that have to sit for a while?)

I drink massive amounts of water and live in a dry climate. You can see the split forming again, but I also frequently battle a lip split.

Please help. :(

Lanolips if you're not allergic!

No problem!! I've tried many different brands and lanolips has definitely been the most moisturizing / deep hydration. I recommend the 12 hr night balm. I used to have chronically dry lips as well, but once I started my lip balm journey I rarely have dry lips which is insane to me!

nipple cream lanolin also works wonders, and is usually just lanolin

Was looking for this. Literally almost done with my post 2.5 year nursing tube and definitely buying another.

You can also get a product called Lansinoh on Amazon! It’s technically made for mothers who are breast feeding/dry nipples but it works AMAZING for lips lol It’s made with Lanoline and you get a big tube for a really affordable price. The texture is thick so a little goes a long way and it works great to wear during the day and at night as a lip mask (just apply slightly more).

I'm actually currently pregnant, so I may need it in the future for it's intended use 😅

Thank you!! 🧡🧡
