How To Treat Dry Skin Around Lips And Eyes?

Hello, I have dry skin that is around my lips and around my eyes. I think it is coming from me transitioning back to the Virginia climate and air conditioning because I lived in Panama the past 3 months. It is some type of drying out from the lack of moisture? I have tried putting different moisturizers and cocoa butter on it, but it only relieves the dryness for short periods of time. What could I use?

Hello,

It could be due to weather changes, your skin is sensitive so it may take a little time to adjust. You can apply vitamin E oil on the skin around the eyes, gently massaging it into the skin.

Leave this on your skin overnight and in the morning, rinse with warm water. Moiturize the area around the mouth with aloe vera gel or ointment. You can also use coconut oil. Take plenty of water & avoid addictions if any.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K
