Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Try an ointment called " Aquaphor. " It's made by Eucerin, and is available in pharmacies. It's an over the counter remedy, but you may have to ask the pharmacist for it. Start with a small tube -- it's pricey, and a little goes a long way. Other suggestion: Vitamin E oil, also available in pharmacies. You can buy a little bottle, or you can buy the capsules, poke a pinhole in one and squeeze the oil out onto your lips.
