I'm dealing with Cheilitis and I'm wondering which lip balm might be better for me - Chaptex or NMFe lip care? Do any of these actually help to cure Cheilitis? I'm just trying to make sure I'm using something effective.

Cheilitis can be treated with a lip balm containing ingredients like petrolatum, beeswax, or dimethicone to help protect and moisturize the lips. In this case, NMFe lip care would be a better option for treating Cheilitis due to its moisturizing properties. Apply NMFe lip care multiple times a day as needed to help alleviate symptoms of Cheilitis.
