My lips are SO sore & cracked atm

My skin is oily but I have wrinkles around my eyes and deep bags underneath when I smile.

Also have VERY dry and brittle hair that isn't growing

Does anyone have any recommendations for good products to help with any/all of the above please. Smile

Nuce reve de miel lip balm is the only one that works if I get sore lips!
Philip Kingsley elasticiser is good for nourishing brittle hair. Or the Shea Moisture black castor oil masque.
I’ve just started using la Roche posay effaclar k moisturiser on my oily t zone and it’s helping me to not be quite as shiny! I use a richer cream on forehead & richer eye cream. The M&S sleep cream is really good.

Nuxe not nuce. Fat fingers, sorry!

I'd say with all those things going on you need to work from the inside out. Get some decent vitamins, minerals and water in you (disclaimer: not a health professional).

Another vote for Nuxe. My little pot has lasted all winter and I've not had the slightest chapping on my lips.

Egyptian magic for lips and hair and dry skin. Botox for wrinkles!

Put coconut oil on your hair. Sleep with it on and shampoo and conditioner as normal when you wash it in the morning. Just ordinary coconut oil from the supermarket.

Another vote for nuxe. It lasts ages.
Alternatively I use weleda nipple cream on my lips and that stuff works magic
