I have a tub of Vaseline and have hardly scratched the surface. I'm curious whether anyone uses it for anything other than their lips.

Yeah we've seen skin specialists and tried everything up until steroids.

In the summer it's worst. I feel so sorry for my kids but we're hoping that they grow out of it like we did. I'm 34 now and I only really get it on my hands and fingers, I can't wear any rings because of it. I still get it mildy on my legs too and sometimes it gets bad to a point where I'm bleeding everywhere from scratching it but my hands are the worst, my skin is like old leather now and looks like it's damaged from acid burns.
