Vaseline is a classic ‘go to’ for lip care for a reason, it works wonders! I am currently on Isotretinoin and one of the worst side effects has been dry, chapped and at times really painful lips. This product has been a lifesaver! Due to the side effects of my medication I have tried oh so many lip balms recently, and always return to this. It is the only one to actually help. I apply some as soon as I wake, a little more after brushing my teeth, and then liberally apply some before going to bed at the end of the day, and it has been keeping my lips moisturised and stopped them cracking and being painful. The only reason I don’t apply more during the day is I am a dental nurse, and it gets on the inside of my mask which isn’t pleasant, but the three times a day I do apply it appear to be enough and it works wonders. I managed to buy 6 tins in bulk from Amazon at a good price and don’t think I’ll ever use anything else. Lip care was never something I thought I would need, but the medication has changed that, and I will continue to give my lips this tlc even after I stop taking the Isotretinoin. Show less
