neutrogena lip moisturizer. IT IS THE BEST. a little expensive, available at pharmacies. but WORTH IT

Your lips are chapped because the humidity is too low in your house. Try putting a kettle on a slow boil with some cinnamon or other spice to up the moisture in the air.

Go with Chapstik or Blistik as they don’t wear off as quickly as vasoline would.

I took my oldest daughter to the doctor for chapped lips. She has a bad habit of licking her lips when it gets cold outside, and that was only making her lips worse. The doctor recommended Aveno Medicated Chap Stick. We started using it, and it has worked wonders. I strongly recommend it to anyone with chapped lips!

Well first things first, stop licking your lips. This dries them out. I know that naturally people lick their lips and that’s fine. But don’t do it as often. Instead use the original brand of Chap-Stick. I always use this. I also keep a jar of vaseline around my house. This jar is for my lips only. Use this often. Don’t smear a big glob on but put on a layer throughout the day. I’ve done this for years and my lips never get chapped and are extremely soft. The fellas love it, I might add (lol)

oh and don’t stop using what you’re using. You actually want the dead skin to come off. It’s dead so there is no reason for it to be there. Always keep your lips moist.

Use something designed for your lips that you can take with you. Carmex or chapstick. It’s made to moisturize your lips and if it doesn’t stop get a medicated lip balm. You should stop using vaseline … jelly type things hold in moisture but dry out more when it’s gone from being openly exposed to air like your lips are if not designed for the exposure. Something that will work in and keep working (like lipbalm) wont do that if you apply it when your lips start to feel chapped. It’s an easy fix and chapsticks are cheap. Carmex comes in a sqeeze tube and twist top can, in regular and cherry now too. Chapsticks like the Chapstick brand are really good, cheap and have so many options there is something for most everyone. Check a pharmacy, general store, walmart, anywhere. Look around and find what works.

-Don’t use things on your mouth that aren’t meant for your mouth. Ingesting some of these things can be really gross and make you sick. Don’t use regular neosporn but the lip treatment from neosporn if you want to try that. Chapsticks and like others have said some simple lipgloss are always the best options for maintaining moisture throughout the day. Try not to lick your lips a lot as well.
