Instantly? Hmmm
But, I use Bert's Bees Beeswax lip balm..its really great. I can't tell you about all these amazing fool proof lip cosmetics that will cure cracked lips that other may tell you, because they mostly dont work, are overpriced, and over exaggerated.
Almost any good lip chap works well, but it takes time. Vaseline also works but tastes gross if you get a little in your mouth and is pretty greasy and gooey. I only use it when I'm sick. But like I said, I use Bert's Bees Beeswax Lip balm..you can find it in a health food store for sure..and probably any drug store. It is bright yellow and has a bee on it. Pretty hard to miss.
Good Luck! Makeup like foundation can usually instantly cure the chapped red look if you need to look perfect for a photo or dance or party or something!

Vaseline is the top choice, you can use it for a lot of things besides treating chapped lips. Its cheap too so that will come in handy.
Just like the name of your question, softips is also good, the regular lip balms are $2.99 in australia (im not sure where you live) and the silk gloss $4.99AUD.
Regular lip balm flavours
-vanilla
-sparkle mint
-iced cappucino
Cocktail flavourz
-margarita ( i have this one )
-tequilla sunrise
-vodka pineapple slice
Silk gloss
-rose
-bronze
-shine

Try Satin Lips from Mary Kay. It comes with a gentle mask and the best lip balm in the world. It costs $18, but it is well worth it.

Mix some sugar with vaseline and use it to exfoliate your lips. use firm but gentle circular motions as you apply the mixture to your lips and then clean them off. make sure that you use plently of chapsticks all the time to keep your lips soft! and repeat the exfoliation every couple of weeks!

Try "Carmex", you need something more than topical to nourish the underlying layers of your skin. Vaseline is good only as a topical treatment not intended to treat below the surface. You can this product at most grocery stores and pharmacies.
