If you’re struggling with acne, consider incorporating fresh vegetables, fruits, beans, and steel-cut oats into your diet. It can really help with reducing acne.

When at the top of the lip, it’s not uncommon to see an arc of dermatitis or sores that form into the shape of a mustache. The redness, fissures, scaling, and crusting are a result of damage to the skin’s epidermal barrier causing inflammation. Lip eczema can also itch but not in all cases. The initiating triggers are not always identified, and some common culprits are facial soaps and lotions, food ingredients, habitual licking, or even anxiety. In the case of habit or anxiety/nervousness, the saliva itself is the irritant. Even after the trigger is removed, the irritation may still lead to continued licking in an attempt to relieve the discomfort when the affected areas dry. This creates a vicious cycle that can last weeks or months and requires a safe and effective solution.

The goal to treat lip eczema in a way that will allow the quickest possible healing without creating other problems due to medicine side effects is a challenge. Depending on the case, a doctor may prescribe an antibiotic if an infection has developed in the damaged skin.

You must also read all labels of lip emollients and steer clear from toxic chemicals and common irritants like lanolin, fragrance and harsh preservatives.
