Hi. Struggling with a VERY dry and tight skin just around the corners of my mouth, been TRYING so many different moisturizing creams and lotions. At the point where I don't know which one is better and will actually have a longer LASTING moisturizing effect and get rid of this totally dry skin around my mouth... Any suggestions as to use the moisturizing lotion or moisturizing cream? Thanks

From Discovery Health "Are creams and lotions different?":

We can define lotions and creams just like the oil you put in your car -- by their viscosity, or how thick the product is. Lotions are low viscosity, which means they're thinner. That's why they usually come in a bottle that you can squeeze or pump. Lotions are also lighter and a little less oily than creams are. For these reasons, people with normal skin probably only need to use lotion to keep their skin moisturized.

Creams are high viscosity, meaning they're a lot thicker than lotions. Creams usually come in jars, because they're so thick it would be difficult to squeeze them out of bottles or pumps. They typically work well on dry skin because of their extra protection.
