Allergy Around Mouth, Dry, Flaky, Irritation. Remedy?

HI, my concern at the moment is an allergy around the mouth, particularly above and below the lips where the mustache grows and hair bellow the lip. its very dry and flaky. I though moisturizing the area would solve the problem of dry skin and eventually relieve the pain coming from the allergy. though after a few days, it doesnt seem to have a permanent effect and the allergy comes back. im guessing its more of an irritation now. are there and methods or actions i should take to resolve my concern? thank you!
