What can be used for ultra dry chapped lips? It's from medication I take, I believe. I drink 8-10 oz water a day and have tried everything on the market It is driving me nuts!

Thanks,
Pam from Elkhart, IN

For the first time in my life I have super chapped lips and the clinique super lip balm seems to only help! Carmex does ok!

I play volleyball on a team, and when we practice outside in the sun I keep licking my lips. It leave a line of dry skin where I had been licking it.

Very painful to peel it off...its driving me and my team nuts!

I use just a dab of Vaseline and some sugar and it really exfoliates my lips! Give it a try!

In the winter time you do need more water then the summer time, but i also found out with dry up skin you should take vitaman B. That is what i use for dryed skin. I get dryed hands a lot & i take vit. B in the morning & night.

I keep a tube of Metholatum in my pocket, purse, by my bed - it just takes a little at a time.

I personaly use Avon`s " care deeply" lip balm
I also use vaseline ,just plain old fashion petroleum* jelly.
I also take meds that dry my lips out and alternate between the 2.Good luck.

I was told that alot of lipsticks that say they are "longlasting" actually dry out your lips so if you are wearing them you need to wear vaseline on your lips at night and when you are not wearing lipstick. That's what I do and also drink tons of water!!

I believe your chapped lips have to do with not being hydrated enough. "8-10 oz" per day is not sufficient to be well hydrated. Think 6-8 glasses of 8-10oz to be well hydrated with little activity....more if you are quite active.
The other thing to note is that your lips adapt or get used to chapstick over time, so that your lips stop producing their own protection and pretty soon you end up needing chapstick all the time.
