D	None of the above

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) recommends using white petroleum jelly throughout the day and before bed to moisturize and sooth dry, cracked lips.

Detailed explanation-2: -Apply a non-irritating lip balm (or lip moisturizer) several times a day and before bed. If your lips are very dry and cracked, try a thick ointment, such as white petroleum jelly. Ointment seals in water longer than waxes or oils. Slather on a non-irritating lip balm with SPF 30 or higher before going outdoors.

Detailed explanation-3: -What Did They Use Before Chapstick? Back before Chapstick was invented, ancient civilizations would use pure beeswax, honey, and natural oils to moisturize their lips. However, we’ve also used some other crazy substances over the years, not limited to glycerin, petroleum jelly, and even earwax!

Detailed explanation-4: -Lip balm should be used whenever your lips feel dry. Apply moisturizing balm generously over lips, especially the corners, using an applicator or your fingertips. If you’re going to go outdoors and your lip moisturizer doesn’t include sunscreen, use a lip balm with SPF.
