Dont use your tongue to wet your lips.Because it will makes the lips more dry than others.To prevent dry lips,use honey and apply it to your lips..Practice this when you are sleeping.Hope it may helps as it will give moisture to the lips.

I hate it when my lips are dry so I use A LOT of lip balm, chapstick, lip gloss, whatever I can. I keep a tube near me at all times and every place I am in the house. One tube near my computer, one in my purse, one by my bed and I use them many many times throughout the day.

Prevention is always better than cure. Below are some tips to prevent your lips from becoming dry: Avoid more exposure to sun rays Keep the air in home humid Do not go out in cold and dry weather before applying lipstick or lip balm Before going in sunny weather, use a sunscreen lotion or cream with SPF on lips. One can treat chapped lips with phenol and beeswax Dab one a small quantity of petroleum jelly or lip balm before using lipstick to give lips moisture

This may prove helpful to you, my friend.... INGREDIENTS: olive oil tomato slice INSTRUCTIONS: fill a shot glass with olive oil ... dip your finger in and rub some on your lips ... drink the rest ... also be sure to drink plenty of water everyday ... for extra chapped lips rub the fleshy side of a tomato on your lips and then eat the rest ... it may sting a bit but the vit. C in the tomato will speed the healing.
