it states it can be used for fever blisters which are on the outside of the lip. can it be used for this as reviews state it stains the lip?

I haven't used it for fever blisters but I used it on my lips for something similar and although it did sort of discolor my lips for awhile (as in maybe a couple of hours) it was well worth it.

I have used it only for sores inside my mouth. It does discolor but works very well.

You could but I use it by applying it externally on wounds bites any skin problem that might invite infection.

Hi there I'm 64 and use it every day...doesn't sink into fine lines on my lips like other stains have...not sure why that is... give it a try! I recommend it.

I don't know. I use it on my hands & it is wonderful. I believe this brand has other salves/creams that are for lips. Search Amazon & see. Fran

Yes but I think it works best for dry, scaly lips. If the corners are cracked I'd try something more natural to start healing them first (like Shea Moisture's Raw Shea Baby Ointment). While the Aquaphor does help with dryness and moisturizing for the scaly stuff to peel off and new growth to occur, I don't think it's "healing" properties are comparable to other stuff I've tried. But that's of course assuming that the cracking you're experiencing is open. If it's not then yeah definitely try this. But if the cracked skin is open I don't think this works to heal it that well. I hope that helps.

Hi Alexandrite, this actually depends upon the season and weather. When you apply the balm stain on your lips it moisturises them and gives a very amazing bright color and shine. The shine lasts for about 1.5 hours on average, and then you will have only the color. Which is good! And if you want to keep your lips glossy and not dry you will have to re-apply the balm stain. I compare it with the really dry lipstick - Limecrime Velvetine that dries immediately after application. The balm stain does not get that dry on the lips.

I use this lip stain because nothing else stays on my lips. The trick with this one is to put it on and then let it "set" - just not lick your lips or add anything or wipe it etc. This stain doesn't dry your lips like others do, but it does have to take a minute or so to sink into the skin - or yes, you can lick it right off.

I use this for my upper lip which has a mixture of light and dark hairs. It gives a really tight grip on the hairs if used correctly. In other words I would imagine it would work for side burns. (It is painful though) I haven't had any issues with hairs slipping through the springs of the Bellabe. It's fast and easy to use! I would recommend!

It's pretty strong, you would only need a tiny bit for flavoring chapstick. It is also red in color and our suckers turn tongues red. So too much in a chapstick might make it a lipstick instead. :)

The label says "keep out of eyes". I think use on the eyelids would not be recommended. This product is for sensitive skin, and was recommended by our dermatologist. She is an excellent doctor, so that is good enough for us. We have not had a problem with it staining our clothes.

Yes you could use it on dry lips in very SMALL amounts. if you have a new tube of it to use for the lips that would be best, since taking cream from a tube that has been used in a diapering area is likely to have germs or possibly fecal contamination.....or with clean hands, squirt the first little bit out of a used tube and wipe it away with a tissue so you are using fresh untouched cream for the lips.

It says not to use on the face. I wanted to use on my upper lip but decided not to try after rereading instructions.

Hi, I bought and use the Chapstick "Classic" and acoording to the product description on it, it has a SPF (Sun Protection Factor) 4. I live in South African and spent a lot of time outdoors and has never had any sun burn problems on my lips. However on my face I use a SPF 30 to 50 to protect me against the sun. What I always notice is how quickly one's lips are healed if you have cracked lips and you use Chapstick. I hope this can be of help.Regards

I just used 20% salicylic last night on my face and the white frost appeared around my mouth only. This morning it still burns and is darker in color, not to mention dry. I'm a little freaked out by the discoloration. Will try to update results. If anyone has had this happen would love to hear results!!!

Yes! It doesn't sting or anything like that. As well as applying it during your day, put it on at night before bed too. Seems to heal any cuts or chapped lips over a few nights

Yes, the color of the lip stain will show through the lip gloss if you add a light colored gloss. The lip stain will stay put even if the gloss fall off. :) I usually add some lip balm on top for summer for a fresh, natural look.

I know it is good for mouth sores straight. I would google about the dilution. Or maybe ask the product source. Let us know.
