Extremely dry lips!

How do you deal with them? I’ve been using vaseline 3 times a day :frowning: They aren’t this dry usually. Hence, it’s bothering me :frowning:

Re: Extremely dry lips!

Oh I havent been drinking a lot of water

Re: Extremely dry lips!

Thankfully mine don't dry out often...even in the winter. But, when they do it's always because I haven't drank enough water

Re: Extremely dry lips!

I was going to suggest water too MKD. Buy a lipscuff and slough-away all the dead skin and then use vaseline!

Re: Extremely dry lips!

I am also suggest u MKD to increase the intake of water. and also drink milk at least twice times. and as gina said before vaselin or body lotion first scrub the lips well to take out the dead skin and then apply. and yah juice also help u a lot in this matter. caz i hv noticed when i take these my lips become good and hydrated. but if i ski any one again i hv to face this problem.

Re: Extremely dry lips!

Thanks for all the replies people. I'm going to increase my water intake. I'll report back in 10 days time regarding any progress :)

Re: Extremely dry lips!

I have the same problem, plus i have too much dead skin on my lips, even if i scrub it off in the morning, it comes again by afternoon, i don;t know where it comes from so quickly but i'm always having dead skin flakes covering my lips and it makes them crack a lot :(

@holy_moly
remember one thing Your skin and hairs always react what r u eating or missing. if u r doing good care but problem persist it means u need extra care or ur internal system create problem. So need to contact to dermatologist.
. The dry skin is basically a dehydrated skin, very sensitive to the weather elements. So the dry skin care regimen is all about nourishing the skin and keeping it protected from external ravages.Excessive exposure to harsh weather elements like snow, sun and winds and the use of chemicals on the skin, Vitamin A and B deficiencies can lead to conditions of dryness too.

So tell us what r u doing and ur life style. then i can help u to sort out ur problem.

Thanks Zaiena!

I don;t know why and how the flakes come so easily and so fast, sometimes many times a day, i peel or scrub them off and apply Vaseline but after some time there are flakes of dead skin again making my lips crack even if i open my mouth :frowning:

I do drink milk, one cup in the morning, then i drink a lot of honey water ( couple of spoons of honey mix in warm water with some lemon added) 2 or 3 glasses a day and i drink juices in between, a cup or two of tea as well. ( no plain water though)

and STILL my lips go dry and crack! :teary2: I wonder if the flakes formed is the dried out vaseline :konfused:

Re: Extremely dry lips!

You can rub off the dry skin with a toothbrush.. My lips get super dry and look skanky if left alone but if I fill them in with pencil liner they're fine..
