Dry earlobes

My earlobes are very dry and peeling— they seem to have gotten worse now that the weather is heating up. My top piercing is relatively new so I don’t want to just put anything on it. Does anyone know of anything I can use to moisturize them? Or will unscented lotion be okay? This is an issue because I have no self control and I know constantly picking at the dry skin isn’t doing anything to help the healing of my piercing. 😅
