[Everything doTERRA] Re: Extremely Chapped Lips

Are you using the FCO or regular coconut oil? I use the regular coconut oil on my face and lips each day and love if for irritation (I have very sensitive reactive Irish skin). I would make sure to only use a high quality chapstick. Burts Bees has a lot of irritants for me. Can you look on the doTERRA blog and maybe make your own? Sorry, thats all I can think of.

I am in a middle of a Candida Cleanse. I've done 2 and now on the 3rd cleanse. I had no adverse reactions during the first two. However, I believe during this 3rd cleanse it magnified an allergic reaction of the lips. I now have swollen and extremely chapped lips. I first attacked it w/ a diluted solution of tea tree oil w/ apple cider vinegar, which has always worked in the passed when my lips have experienced an allergic reaction (chap stick when worn in the sun... I can only now use the very basic chap stick per the dermatologist). Anyways, the remedy isn't working the same, therefore, I can only attribute it to the Candida cleanse. I am now utilizing the following to heal my lips: 15 drops frankincense, 15 drops lavender, and 1 tablespoon coconut oil. This is very soothing, but I am wondering if adding Myrrh to the mix would be beneficial and if so, how many drops?

Thank you. I greatly appreciate input... Therese
