Dr. Maxfield applied that lip mask like an absolute dad.

Fun fact: ChapStick is a brand. Lip balm is the product. This is one of the best examples of brands that become generic trademarks. A person might say "I used some Chapstick today" but the brand of lip balm they used is actually Burt's Bees or something else. Kleenex, Vaseline, and Xerox are other examples of brands that get used as generic trademarks! OK, back to the dermatology lesson..

I love this, you guys are explaining topics that some other channels don't go into. Skin care is the whole body. I learned so much in this short bit and now I'm inspecting all my lip balm ingredients.

Glad you discussed becoming reliant on lip balm, but then following it up with "well, you need it..." haha! Made me feel better about the doubts I had about using lip balm so much in the winter

I adore you two, what you do for us consumers is priceless. I'd love to have you guys make a video exclusively for old ladies like me that got started on skincare late in life

Thanks a lot for the double moisturising techniques docs. Also, congratulations on crossing 1 million. Well deserved ☺️

I just love and appreciate you two! I’ve learned so much from you and my skin has completely changed for the better!

I just love both of them, The way they expound their words. They have myriad pieces of information. ❤️

I'm happy they mentioned double moisturizing with petroleum jelly as a safe and valid method. I have been doing that without any research (just took a swing) and it worked for me amazingly without any problems so I figured I was doing something right.

Paulas choice lip balm in the jar is my holy grail and not over priced stays on all night and day!

you two are so adorable together. thankyou for making me smile

I just started watching videos about skin care and yours are awesome, funny, informative, and well thought out. I really appreciate the time both of you take to make them. Right now it has even fixed a problem I have been having which is my irritation and dryness around the mouth even though I am always wearing my favorite lip balm. I have to constantly use a lip balm as I'm a lip licker and using a lip balm makes me stop the habit. I have been using this lip balm for several years so I didn't understand why I have been getting irritation around my mouth, even though I was using it more often which I guess made the problem even worse. When I saw the video I right away used another lip balm as I have different ones in my drawer as other people have gifted them to me and don't use, but instead I always reach for my favorite one. Within 30 minutes of using a different lip balm the irritation calmed down as well as the dryness around my mouth. I never thought my body would have issues with something that I have been fine with for several years but this video taught me differently. Thank you and sorry for the long comment. 😅

You guys rock! Super funny and educational at the same time :) I really enjoy how you both manage to present serious content while joking around so much!

Jamaican here. No winter or dry weather. My lips used to chap and strip every other day. Could not wear matte lipsticks, flaky lips while talking to people.. embarrassing. Chapstick, Blistex, Burt’s bees, EOS…I tried them all! Vaseline is my holy grail. Applied at night and I’m good for the day. So glad somebody recommended it 👌🏾

I use castor oil and it works. It's a thick oil but it has staying power. When I'm at the gym I use avocado oil in a roll on applicator and that works as well. I also use Blistex, Lip Medex. Note: castor oil is used in many skin care products. It works best on mature skin.

The CeraVe Healing Ointment changed my LIFE! I bought a double pack of small tubes to make it convenient to carry (one in my purse and one on my bedside table) and my lips felt better, looked better, with less cracking within 24 hours - no exaggeration! Thanks so much for the tip!

I’d really love to see the close up/microscopic views of where the lips meet the lip line. I struggle with tiny blackheads all around the lip line, and I’d love to know how I could treat those without damaging the delicate skin on my lips. Thanks guys! You’re so much fun to watch!

You guys are educational which I love but sooo entertaining as well! My go-to for lips is the cerave healing ointment too and I hope they take your advice and sell those little tubs, it's the perfect size. Love you guys!

The double moisturising is such a great advice. I’ve suffered from dry lips pretty much all my life till the last month. I would constantly apply lip balm day in day out, and still my lips would get so damn dry. I though it is the toothpaste or the lip balm or other stuff, tried so many different brands of lip balms and still the Same result. I would finish a whole lip balm tube in less than a month, my dad joked if I eat it lol. But recently I started applying burt’s bees honey lip balm and then applying a layer of Vaseline on top every night and just like that my dry lips problem was solved! There are still such misconceptions about Vaseline being harmful since it’s derived from crude oil and blah blah that we fail to see how it is actually such a useful ingredient. Also the point about the lips having no barrier was really cool to know, wasn’t aware of that. Anyway sorry for such a long comment!

Omg these 2 are my favorite, very informative yet HILARIOUS!!!

Once while I was breastfeeding I noticed that lanoline nipple cream heals nipples in few hours, so I applied it on my cracked dry lips in the evening and in the morning I was amazed. Cheap, safe as it is used for breastfeeding, it is just great

I’ve had super dry lips all year round for as long as I can remember. Once someone told me I didn’t drink enough water so I went on a water binge and they were still dry! I have been using high spf lip balm on my lips for 30+ years. My dad and my 2 sisters and I get milia around or lips which my derm said was a rare place and she didn’t think milia was genetic. We do not use the same lip products. The only thing that has drastically improved my lips is the laneige lip mask. Sometimes I’ll use the burts bees in the winter. Facial peels help the annoying milia!

You guys are very informed and detailed. It would be amazing if you had some time stamps to go along with your category animations!!

Thank you guys for sharing this information! Learning to take better care of my hair, skin, lips, and overall physical health.

After Dr.Dray recommended the Cerave Healing Ointment for chapped skin and for lips. I was looking all over for the tube one. And after 3 stores I finally found it. But it was the big ass jar. I was so mad at that point just bought it for like $20-30 and was like YOU COMING HOME WITH ME DANG IT. and my sister laughed at me. WELL... 4 YEARS LATER. I have BARELY made a dent in it and my lips have been soft and supple since! 10/10 recommended. Also if you like diy chapstick/lip balm. It's a little soft for that but it's good for it!!! For travel in my purse I reused an empty cute lipstick tube from Jill Stuart and I get compliments on it all the time. 🥰

Thank you for providing this useful and highly educational content! As a beauty fanatic I like to try different lip balms and products but I always end up using the aquaphor and Vaseline, products my mom (RN) swore by since the 60s and ones I grew up using in the 80s and still today!

I remember last winter I really struggled with this, because I just wanted to be outside in the snow all day, I don't regret that. But afterwards I struggled with dry lips for half a year. I tried a lot of different balms, but in the end the thing that worked for me was aloe Vera. not a balm with aloe Vera, but just the raw gel. You don't have that instant feeling like your lips are better like with Chapstick, but it did really help and I could see some difference after a week.

Thank you very much! I struggle with really dry lips every single winter so I really appreaciate a video right from the pros that know what they are talking about. Can´t wait to try out new ideas next winter! :))

Thank you for these amazing tips to moisturize lips! One other product that's worked wonders for me personally is the "fresh sugar lip treatment" which has Shea butter in it with very mild fragrance and leaves lips super soft!! Wld definitely help to get your views on this lip balm as well. Thank you 👍

I love their editor! Makes their videos not just informative, but fun! On lip care... Vaseline has an actual [pink] lip vaseline, tiny little tub that works fantastic. I've used it for a few years now. Not perfrect but the most complete I've found to date. I don't need to be constantly reapplying, and leaves the lips super soft and soothed when cracked. I've also used the Laneige mask for a few years, few times a week. When I'm using the vaseline lip care, I don't use this much, but when I don't have it, I def need to rely on the lip mask to not have my lips cracking completely. It does feel sticky if too much is added. Will definitely need to try double moisturizing.

I have been using O’keeffe’s lip repair while on accutane and it works sooooooo good

I think it's the first video Dr Maxfield is talking more than Dr Shah, it's so cute seeing him finally getting comfortable and coming out of his shell. ♥

I just picked up the Laniege Lip Sleeping Mask on sale (thank you TJ Maxx!) and it has made SUCH a difference on my son's super dry, cracked lips. We've tried a lot of lip balms and the Laniege has worked wonders on his sad little lips. 😊

I love that they have different views sometimes or perceptions, this is such a key trait more doctors need to hold!

Dr. Dray also makes an excellent point about lip care. She uses lotion on her lips before applying any 'sealant' like chapstick-esque products. I started doing that, too, and I definitely prefer the results from it. I like to apply a small layer of lotion (CeraVe) to my lips, let it sit for about 1 minute to absorb, and then apply the chapstick once the lotion has stopped being slick (so the chapstick can actually be applied instead of just smearing lotion around.) My lips almost never peel and when they do it's usually my fault for licking my lips, dry mouth, not reapplying chapstick, etc.

I am now obsessed with your videos. I just found you guys on my algorithm. I have only recently gotten back to lip care because my lips tend to get really dry and flaky. I have a tendency to want to peel them off and it gets painful. So far, I really like using the scented Burts Bees lip balm and lip oil because it helps keep the skin on my lips hydrated.

I’ve been using Cerave Healing ointment for years. I buy the large jar and just refill the travel size Vaseline jars with it. When my lips are really bad, I use my Cetaphil lotion first, then Cerave. Glad to know I’ve been doing it right.

I have systemic lupus & extremely dry skin and cracked lips especially during the colder months. I (personally) am addicted to the habit of using a chapstick. This vid really helps! Ty. HugsFromNYC 🍎

This helped so much! I found out I'm allergic to Avocados - very sensitive to it. AND I was wondering why I was breaking out around my mouth and expanding to my lower jaw and neck in red bumps. Stopped using the lip balm from True Botanicals after reading that it had Avocado oil in it, and my skin has cleared up and my lips are happy again. Now to find the right lip balm without Avocado oil in it.🤨

I love love love your episodes! You guys are silly, funny and yet quite informative! Love it!

I actually found they now have like a 2 or 3 pack of the cerave ointment in travel tubes at the store and so i try to remember to keep one in my purse. Great multitasker for my lips and cuticles in the cold!

Thank you for taking the time to educate us all!! You rock!!!

I make my own lip balm with the beeswax from our beehives and I also use tallow as well. I like a natural approach and it seems to have been working great for me 🤷‍♀️

Thanks for great information, enjoyed immensely

I use nipple cream (lansinoh lanolin) on my lips after discovering how versatile it is after breast feeding my eldest. I used to always have dry chapped lips and years of chronic sinus infections meaning I breathe out my mouth which is really drying left my lips suffering! One day reading the back of the type I bunged some on and never looked back! When my aunt was in hospice care she was left with really sore lips and I would apply some for her even when she couldn’t talk any more she made relieved noises when I would apply it and all the nurses asked what I used too. It’s obvs an issue with certain allergies like everything (my friend with severe nut allergies can only;use lanolin too) but if you’re not allergic it’s amazing! Would love you to do a skincare video for those with nut and nut oil allergies!

You guys are so much fun!!! I use cerave ointment and top it off with Vaseline. This has saved my lips! No need for expensive lip masks.

Great video! All my questions answered. Thank you 😊 💓

In the past few years I've learned that I'm allergic to the ingredients in lip balm and I licked my lips super bad. Every few weeks my lips would break out so bad and it was painful. I finally brought it up to my doctor and she recommended Vaseline and it has been a game changer! Took a bit to get my lips back go normal, but as long as i make sure I always have Vaseline on me (or aquaphor), I have no issues! 🙌 lots of good info in this video!

Aquaphor has been my saving grace

I really appreciate this video. I have used a number of lip balms, I found they all made my lips worse. I found that they were all too waxy or something off about them. The edges of my lips would actually peel at times and bleed. I finally said screw it and started using Vaseline and no problem. Never been able to wear lipstick either. I’m 68 and sometimes something that has been around longer than me is recommended. 🎉🎉

The best channel for skincare

Love your videos!!! Very informative thank you so much.

I remember having dry lips even in the summer from the age of probably 13 or so. I didn’t use any chapsticks at that time and I experienced a lot of pain and my lips wear cracked. So I started to use something that was similar to chapsticks and now, at the age of 36, I have always something on my lips because otherwise I just have to suffer under pain and dry lips that don‘t look nice as well :D

I definitely do the double-moisturizing technique and it helps! I use either raw shea butter, or another blend of butters, then top it with something else. I used to use Aquaphor, but lately I'm using a lip mask from Handmade Heroes, which also has a blend of butters, looks pretty clean, and has no fragrance. Thanks for the other recommendations!

Vaseline works well! I've switched to using Palmer's Cocoa Butter Swivel Stick for the last several years. It's the big tube, not the chapstick size which has ingredients I react to. I am sensitive to many lip moisturizers. I recently had lip blush tattooing and was given a special ointment to use while healing. I didn't realize at first, but I was reacting to the product. It contained pitchouli oil, which seems like an odd addition for a product meant to be used following lip tattoing. Definitely need to watch the ingredients!

You guys are awesome and love the Sense of humor!

I've been using the Tatcha lip mask for over 2 years. I live in a super dry Colorado climate, and that lip mask saved my lips from constant need for lip balm during the day.

the laneige lip mask is amazing. but the best lip balm i’ve ever used is the eucerin intensive lip balm. its comfortable, affordable and heals my chapped, peeling lips.

thank you so much for always being so honest ! you're AMAZING :))

Bless you! I always use the laneige lip mask at night. I usually switch between eos rescue balm, l’occtine lip balm, and Burt’s bees. However I feel like the combo of Pyunkang Yul Cerimide lotion under the lip mask is the best duo ❤

I've heard influencers say that there are no oil glands in the lips but also go on to say that you should "add" the moisture with chapstick. Thank God for doctors on KZfaq ❤️

Supergoop lip balm is absolutely wonderful. Stays on longer and 30 spf

Laniege lip sleeping mask changed my lips. I apply at night before bed and never need lip balm during the day unless I have a cold - then I just use during the day too. But not having to carry lip balm everywhere I go has been a game changer!

I'm so thankful for a video on this subject, and I found this so helpful! Thank you thank you.... :)

Excellent timing! My lips have been so dry recently. Thanks for this 😀

I use the Laneige lip mask usually a few nights a week. It was expensive but it lasts forever. I have been on the same tub for like 3 years lol. I have never been a fan of scented lip balms as I hate having that flavor get in my mouth lol. Chapstick Total Hydration Soothing Oasis is my favorite lip balm in recent years!

I love the way Dr Shah looks at Maxfield ....

Loving the discussion! *subscribed*

They DO sell a two pack of tiny Cerave Healing Ointments! I got mine from Walgreens. They’re also great because you don’t have to touch your face with them. They’re little tubes with a small hole. Amazing for on the go and my favorite lip balm. I also love Vanicreams Spf lip balm :)

Just the video for this season. I've been double moisturizing my lips at least once a day, and it finally helped them stop peeling and chapping :)

I was using the Aquaphor Advanced ointment. I think I used it too frequently. My dermatologist switched me to plain old vaseline. Hopefully this improves soon!

Used the lenige lip mask every night for several months, forgot to apply it once and my lips were SO DRY! Decided to quit it cold turkey and my lips dried up and peeled for about two weeks 😭

Darn! I love lip scrubs! I can't help it! My lips get so... chapped & dry. I have several lip balms & lip masks, gonna try the double moisturize & ordering that Cerave right now. Thanks Docs!

Every winter, I used to struggle with cracks at the side of my lips. Dr. Dray said in one video that it could be due to beeswax. I've since eliminated beeswax balms and, voila, no problems. I wish Vaseline sold the small squeeze lip tubes here in Canada like they do in the USA (we get little pots, which require application with fingers, ewww).

Wooooooooooow thank you so so much you guys really answered so many questions I had and I definitely enjoy scrubbing my lips and I suffer from dermatitis on my lips ..

Really enjoy watching your videos not only sharing professional opinions also fun interaction between you guys xD

My derm got me on the Aquaphor, SPECIFICALLY the Advanced Therapy healing ointment and now they are normal!!! I've had dry chapped lips for years before this. Good luck!!!

I'm a new subscriber! I've learned so much from you two! (Great team) I absolutely love your videos!! I'm learning and laughing at the same time.....plus you're easy on the 👀 eyes! THANK YOU FOR taking time to educate us all! GOD BLESS YOU 🙏

I frickin love watching these guys

This was incredibly helpful as I head into the winter months. I've started using the Dr Dennis Gross Peel Pads (love them!) But will stop using them on my lips immediately 🙈 Thanks, Drs!!

I have found that my dry lips has less to do with what I put on them and much more to do with my body. If I'm sick or stressed or not eating well, they dry out and there's nothing I can put on that makes a big difference (although it feels soothing and protects from wind and cold). But when I'm healthy, so are my lips.

I'm always so jealous of women who can wear lipstick and still have normal lips 😂. Even without it my lips are always so dry. It's gotten way better since quitting all the lip balms and just moisturizing them. Gonna test the double method tonight!

Honestly Revision makes the best!!

Was about to buy a lip scrub and this totally changed my mind!!!! Thank you 😮‍💨

I have so many lip balms and chap sticks it's insane ... Dr paw paw over night lip mask (blue tube) is my fav I own ALL of the types and colors... Burt bees chap stick is also great... Elf makes a lip balm that super thick which is great to apply over a hyaluronic acid like the one from The Ordinary .. so if you have the hyaluronic acid from The Ordinary but don't like it for your face try it on damp lips then put a balm over it

I have been using Lanolin, a nipple cream for breastfeeding moms, on my lips and it's the only thing that doesn't make my lips more dry. I adore it. Changed my life.

Thank you, I've been waiting for a video about dry lips for so long... It's something Im really struggling with (and still am) for years.

Y’all are officially in my algorithm 👍🏼😊

I actually really love SunBums chapsticks. I haven’t really taken a deep dive into ingredients and I have never heard anyone talk about them. They have similar texture to Burt’s bees without as much fragrance, at least seemingly to me. I use their chapstick under laneige mask or Vaseline at night.

Vaseline with Shea butter is my favourite! Only took 40 years to of trying everything on the market before going back to what my mom always recommended.

I used the Laneige sleeping mask after watching this, it’s FANTASTIC! The chapping has gone and I now have smooth lips, thank you. ❤️❤️

I just love the comments on here.....they would crack me up but I now use so much moisturizer cause of you two I don't get cracks any more.

A video on lip hyperpigmentation would be appreciated.

I've actually been making my own lip balm for the past few years. It saves me money, it's more eco-friendly, and it's vegan! All it is is candellila wax, sweet almond oil, and mango butter, and I just pour it into reused lip balm tubes.

Thank you Drs for the video

I NEEDED THIS!!!! THANKS

I love the vanicream ointment. Cheap, petroleum free, and non irritating, for me at least. Works wonders on my alligator hands too! Thanks for the info.

The double moisturizing works! Thank you for talking about it. I have used the Necessaire's body serum first then locked it in with the CeraVe Healing Ointment. It works better than chapstick at night. In terms of fragrance and other potential allergens in your lip products, I do think it's a slight risk because repeated use can increase the potential of developing an allergy to those ingredients even though you never had problems initially.

thank yall for this video. I as a hispanic male with larger than normal luminous lips am more prone to dry and chappy lips. I am 22yrs old and I am sick and tired of every winter dealing with this major problem so I am going to try Cerave lip healing ointment

Very Helpful!💯
