Hi Jean I am wondering if they sting if you have some type of infection perhaps viral related to cold sores?

Have you tried virgin coconut oil? I use that on almost everything. It works on mildly itchy skin as well.

I can't use vaseline because I get some type of allergic reaction from it. I have exzema on my hands and feet and vaseline seems to make it itch and become painful.

I try alot of natural remedies and I would try virgin coconut oil first.

Hope this is helpful.

Hi! dont be putting any greasy products on your lips as this makes them red and swollen. Im a lip care expert. If you wont further help please head to my page, i have loads of posts and one of them atleast will help you. I have suggested some very good products you should probaly try, and that are best for you lips. I deffinatly suggest not to put on vasline. You have chapped lips and there is a certain product yo uneed to use. Like INTENSIVE MOUISTURIZER by blistex. This is one of the best products, Please read through my first post it has the best products on it. Hope my posts help you! Xx
