🚫 Say NO to Blistex! ❄️❌⁠ ⁠ That cooling, tingly feeling might seem soothing, but from a dermatologist’s perspective, it’s often doing the opposite of what your lips need.⁠ ⁠ Many Blistex formulas contain ingredients like menthol, camphor, or salicylic acid. These can feel refreshing at first, but they’re actually irritating and drying, especially for already chapped or sensitive lips. Over time, this can lead to a frustrating cycle where lips feel temporarily better… then drier, prompting you to reapply again and again.⁠ ⁠ What lips really need is barrier repair, not stimulation. Lips don’t have oil glands, so they rely heavily on protection to stay hydrated.⁠ ⁠ Derm-approved swap: Vaseline or Aquaphor, which are simple, fragrance-free occlusives that seal in moisture and allow lips to heal properly.⁠ ⁠ If your lip balm tingles, burns, or stings, that’s your skin telling you it’s not happy. When it comes to lip care, boring is better—and your lips will thank you for it. #DrGeetaYadav...
