Careful with the chapsticks you use ... alot of them have Camphor in them (carmex is the worse), which does give temporary relief, however, the camphor actually causes your lips to dry out sooner (which justs means you have to use it more often or get chapped sooner).. try getting something more natural like a bee's wax chapstick with no camphor in it...
For your skin, try a few different lotions until you find ones that works, get the ones for super dry skin (I use Oil of Olay - get the sensitive skin one, it has no smell so it's ok for guys to use), make sure to put it on right out of the shower, and then right before bed... Try to avoid the more oily ones as they can also cause acne...
GOOD LUCK!!!

keep using the chaped stick on ur lips still but for your face you should really try a facial. they are really easy and they help your skin and so many ways. so look for a facial cream to help with your very dry skin. i can say they really do help alot.

Aquaphor or vaseline. Or just use moisturizer on your face. The aquaphor and vaseline will make your face shiny so I suggest doing it when you stay home and don't have to go anywhere. Or you could put it on before bed, just don't get it all over the covers lol.

Moisturizer. Check out The Body Shop or Bath and Body Works. Both have a men's line.

Keep using the chap stick. If it is on your face I would ask a pharmasist what you could use. Saves on Dr bills
Good Luck

Vasolene or you can use a good facial moisturizer for your face such as oil of olay :) very good, I even know a guy who uses it.

Ok this feels really weird but it works. Take some Vaseline and just rub it on.

Don't use chap stick use carmex and use the one in the Sm. round container not the tube. Use lotion on your face like Oil of Olay face lotion so you don't break out from it.

go to a drug store or whatever is close and get normal face moisturizer that should improve things
