Dr. Dan's Cortibalm 2 Pack 1% Hydrocortisone Lip Balm for Dry Cracked Lips

This tastes disgusting but works better than anything I've tried. I found a Vaseline based lip balm (ready that a petroleum-jelly is best) and due to overuse caused my lips to get very irritated and infected. They got so bad in areas I could feel occasional pus. Too busy to go to the doctor so researched on my own. I found a $28 gloss base that said it would heal. I was desperate. I could feel a tingle, hoping it was working. I had been struggling for at least a month and half. My lips would try to heal and cause my skin to dry and flake but it wasn't really healing. So disgusting. I researched further and found this medicated option. Much more cost friendly. I've been using it for over a week and my lips are almost healed. I find I don't lick my lips as often because it doesn't taste good and the balm is solid on my lips. This stuff is Amazing!! I threw out my petroleum based products.

My absolute favorite! Please never change! 8 years and counting, a blessing for dry lips and staves off fever blisters.

This stuff took less then 24hrs to heal my lip! I get the healing and irritating split lips in the dryer days of winter, I would use other name brands from the drug stores but they would take weeks of constantly applying sometimes to no relief just greasy lips...but Dan's made a huge difference only applied 3 or 4 times and everything was gone and healed! I won't use anything else anymore! Life time customer now!

I went to the dermatologist for some dry, flaky patches on my skin, and thank goodness I mentioned that my lips are painfully dry, peeling and bleeding and nothing seems to be helping them. She mentioned this product since it has hydrocortisone in it, and although I was skeptical, I gave it a shot. Within 24 hours, my lips started to heal and no more peeling - literally within a day! This is now my go-to product, and it does stay on your lips without feeling too heavy. I now have these all over the house, in my purse - this is the ONLY thing that cured my dry lips. Worth every penny!

I've had something going on with my lips since July of last year. Thought they had gotten sunburned after a day at the lake but, after trying various products to treat it with no relief, I went to urgent care. They prescribed something similar to neosporin which also didn't help. Finally went to the dermatologist who looked at them under the magnifying thing, didn't see anything concerning but also offered zero solutions or suggestions. Except that my lips weren't getting better 5 months after this all started, and would peel every few weeks! Only a daily application of hydrocortisone would help. I ended up going to a different derm a couple weeks ago, and she suggested I order Dr. Dan's Cortibalm.......sigh. After seeing that the main ingredient was hydrocortisone (the only thing helping to date), I figured I'd give yet another product a try, fully expecting to return it. BUT two days after using it, I can already feel a huge difference!! It's really, really working and my lips no longer feel tight, stretched and burning. 8 months of discomfort seems to be resolved. I'd give this 10 stars if I could!

Has a weird smell but it does ACTUALLY WORK. I still continue to have an issue with chapped/peeling/raw lips but this does offer relief and heals! Has the consistency of a sun block stick (I usually like more Vaseline) and has weird smell I don’t like but can be covered up with other lip balms/ gloss.

Great product for dry lips!! First recommended by my Dentist and it works great!

I love this product. It works wonders on my chapped lips. I had used another product that lost its effectiveness. I will be getting a few more so I always have access to it. The only down side is that it's a bit pricey. It is worth the price definitely, but hard to justify on my limited income

If you’re on acutane, you must have this!

I’ve been combating dry skin for a year and a half, and this is definitely one of the best products I’ve used. Of course, a big part of that is because it contains hydrocortisone, but it’s so much better than using it from a tube and stays on for quite a while. This will definitely be a go to product in the future. Just make sure to only use it short term due to the steroid content.

Its a fantastic product that really works for severely dried skin

We didn't like it

My daughter had tried a lot of lip balms for cracked and dry lips. This is the best one we have tried, instantly started to heal lips. Highly recommend.
