I have dry itchy outline of lips . I ve had it for about a month. I had it last year also and it lasted for about 5+months. I ve tried chapstick, olive oil, vaseline and vit. E. Sometimes it looks like I have lipliner on. I constantly put on vaseline through out the day to keep it at bay. If it helps, I got eczema and herpes simplex .

It seems you have Exfoliative cheilitis ...you did not mention when you had herpes simples and which site( whether it was herpes labialis?) treatment has to be accordingly..anyway try
1. Take plenty of fluid everday.
2.Cap Zavit one cap every day
3.Elovera IMF cream 3-4 time a day local application
4.If you had not herpes labialis then try Crolim .1% oint once day...
hope this will work..ll take time.
