Dry and Chapped Lips? Any solutions?

Question

I have a case of severe dry and chapped lips. I have tried everything from lip balm to lip ointments found in stores. Anyone has a solution that might help my lips. My lips get dry every 2 days and sometimes get painful. Home remedies anyone?

Answer 1

My lips get very dry in the winter...(gas heat wrecks havoc)...Vaseline Lip Therapy always works for me. If my lips get dry and cracked I keep that on them all the time and it heals them in no time and helps them feel much better during the healing process. I don't know if you've tried that...you say you've tried everything. If so, I don't know what else to suggest other than just making sure you keep something on your lips to keep them moist at all times to prevent drying and further cracking. I feel your pain! Good luck!!

Answer 2

I use something called Chap Ice- it's like Blistex and comes in little round tubs, and it's medicated. They sell it at Walgreens and CVS and I've also seen it at Dollar tree. It's like a lip balm, but you smooth it on with your finger. Works good and the price is right, especially at the dollar store.

Answer 3

Try caking vaseline on before you go to bed at night. Seems to help mine out a lot.

Answer 4

put pure honey on your lips, when u first wake up and when u go to bed...in between i used Blistex roll on...hope tihs helps..also drink plenty of water...like plenty!

Answer 5
