My lips are the same way. I've tried everything except consulting a dermatologist. My lips are rarely in any condition to wear lipstick. It's my curse.

Mary Kay has satin lips that are amazing and stick with lip balm and not Chapstick!

Try using a cucumber lotion, apply it on at night and wash it off in the morning:) It worked for me invite second day!

**on the second day

Sounds like you need a lip scrub: Mary Kay stain lips is the best. That makes a big difference

I know this sounds weird but I use Lansinoh lanolin for breast feeding mothers on my lips every night at bed time and my lips are never dry or chapped. I use a generous amount before bed. It's $10 or so at target and a tube will last about a year. I started using it after I had my daughter and in the middle of the night one night my lips were so dry and burning. All I had within reach was the lanolin so I put some on and never looked back. Now she is 9. I really only have to buy 1 tube a year. The Medela brand is not as thick but it also doesn't moisturize very well.

Sugar and olive oil lip scrub ( there's super easy DIYs for it on here, just do a search for it) to get rid of dead flakes followed by a thick coating of Aquaphore. It's the best stuff ever for chapped anything, put it on right before bed and wake up to soft , smooth lips

Exfoliate using a damp soft toothbrush, or use a damp wash cloth. Avoid licking your lips, this makes it worse. I put on Vaseline at night before bed. During the day I use rose salve that is by c.o. Bigelow and is available at bath n body works. blistex medicted lip balm also works well and also has a nice scent. Avoid softlips products because they have a lot of alcohol which is drying. Good luck girl.

Mix brown sugar, honey, and a bit of olive oil together for a good homemade lip scrub! Then use a really good lip butter or balm

Use a natural lip scrub(I use sugar and water) and then put some Petroleum jelly to top it off.

Make sure your getting enough water, when I don't my lips get super chapped! You could also use a dry toothbrush to scrub off the dead skin.

Put Chapstick on before you put lipstick on.. Ooo or you can take sugar and put it on wet lips and scrub them good. :P

Also! Stay hydrated. Our lips get chapped when we don't drink enough water.

Don't forget to drink water, that will naturally bring a bit more moisture and help your lips not dry out so badly :) and of course these lovely ladies have tons of great suggestions ill have to snag for me too!

A lip scrub might solve your problem. Lush Cosmetics has a really good lip scrub that works wonders! It's only 9.95 and it is EDIBLE! :-) You can also try tomake your own with sugar, honey, and Vaseline.
