Why is it taking months for my lip dermatitis to heal? i haven't used any new lip or face product that i wasn't already using before the rash developed. and everytime i think it's on it's way to clearing up, something triggers it and it's back?

: I have found that lip balms containing bees wax often cause a dermatitis. If you have been applying such a product, I suggest discontinuing it and using only aquaphor.
