Sore Swollen Lips Upon Sun Exposure. Any Suggestions?
Every time I go on holiday, the sun really effects my lips. They get really sore and often swell. I'm going on a holiday with friends in a few weeks and I do not want this to happen. Do you have any suggestions? Bare in mind I have quite sensitive lips anyway and I keep my lips moisturised constantly when at home (Yorkshire, UK). However, my lips never get sore in cold weather like most people, just in hot.
When abroad, I usually put a high factor lip balm on but it does not help much. Hydrocortisone helps a little when I put it on at night and in the morning but I'd love to have something to prevent it during the day. Thanks in advance!
