dark circle around lips

[maya10]

My daughter who is 10 year old and has history of mild eczema maily on the hands developed very dry lips two weeks ago.First week we applyed E45 cream and it got better.
Next week while eating something spicy her lips flared up and again she suffred from dry chapped lips.she started licking her lips but may be 10 times a day..so we applied butter on her lips ..which was salted.
now her dry lips have been cured with no dryness or discomfort but she has devleoped perioral pigmentation ..which is dark circle around her lips..look like moustache
Gp has prescribed 1% hydrocortisone..but pigmentation is still very apparent and very dark.
what could be the cause of this.does this goes away?
We are from india.
My daughter is eating mangoes from last month but not allerigic  to them as she always have them in season.
Please respond

Thanx doc..you are treasure ..but do we stop giving her vitamin tablets while on syrup?or it doesnt matter?

My computer broke down got it fixed,now  you give her 1 tsp at bedtime for a month.It is safe and no sideeffects.

Thank you so much for your help and guidence ..my life has been much better after reading your responses to my quries.Meanwhile i have got hold of zincovit syrup.I was wondering does this have any side effect and should we stop giving her any other vitamin tablets containing zinc while giving her syrup.we have been giving her zinc with vitamin c tablets after reading your suggestion..i do feel that its helping her..i certainly feel the discolouration even though  noticeble its slightly lighter in colour.
thanks and regards.
