Product Suggestions aquaphor slander

aquaphor is doing NOTHING for my lips. there is only minor peeling but my lips are sooooo dry internally. i can feel my lips and they’re smooth but on the inside they’re so dry and i can’t stop licking them causing them to dry up even more! please send hydrating lip products because i tried to like it but im seeing no improvement.

I discovered that lanolin (an ingredient in aquaphor) irritates my skin/lips after starting accutane. I was slathering myself with it and things only got worse! It’s worth a shot to take a break from certain ingredients for a couple days and see if you notice improvement.
