For lips and around the mouth I would like to recommend a couple of organic non-petroleum products that I just found. Based on the recommendation of another user in this forum I ordered two products…..Alba Botanica un-petroleum multi-purpose jelly and Sky Organics organic petroleum free jelly. The Sky Organics product is a bit lighter so I tend to use this one more on my face and lips but both products work very well. It seems that products that contain petroleum jelly (Vaseline, some of the CeraVe products, etc.) seem to “sit” on top of the skin sometimes, not really moisturizing for the long term. I found that these organic non-petroleum products seem to last a lot longer after application and they are especially great on the face/lips.

Perioral dermatitis is a specific type of eczema that occurs around the mouth, often presenting as red or skin-colored bumps that may itch or burn. Eczema around the mouth, in general, can include other types like atopic dermatitis, which causes dryness, itchiness, and cracked skin. The key difference is that perioral dermatitis often spares a small area around the lips and may resemble acne, while other eczema types may not. A dermatologist can help identify the exact condition.
