Patient Question
Hello Doctor,
Which is the most suitable option for alleviating dry winter lips: beeswax, petroleum jelly, or another substance?
Answered by Dr. Susana Perez Santos
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Both of them are good for dry and chapped lips, and they are the main components in moisturizing lipsticks. Extra Virgin olive oil is another substance, but it needs to be mixed with other ingredients to achieve a more solid texture that can stay on the lips for a longer duration.
Thanks
