What should i do about Chapped lips?




its getting colder outside, and i get pretty bad chapped lips and i absolutly hate it. in addition to chapped lips i get red-ness around my lips, (no not herpes to all the smart -asses) so what shoulld i do? what kinda chap stick would u recomend? what should i do about the redness around my lips? and im useing vasolne know, does that work better then chap stik?What should i do about Chapped lips?
One way you can get chapped lips is from being in the cold for too long without using chapstick. I reccomend using Blistex or Burt's Bees chapsticks. Also, another reason for chapped lips is not drinking enough water. For this, I reccomend drinking the right anount of water (not a lot at all at the same time, because that can lead to water poisening, which is a whole other story). Don't drink it all at one time, because you can get water poisening which is very serious.





Hope this helped!!


~haha28em~What should i do about Chapped lips?
i have the same thing where i have chapped lips and around it its reddish. i use blistex. i feel like carmex makes that reddish area burn and it peals your lips. and once you use carmex, you can't stop or your lips will be swollen for a couple of days. thats just me though. vaseline is alright but its better to use something that is actually designed for what you need.








hope this helps (:
Don't use Vaseline on your lips! I got a black line around my lips from using Vaseline on them regularly, and my lips were BADLY chapped 24/7. My friends and family had the same experiences. Use Chapstick. The red cherry flavoured one is really good. I recommend those.





I heard Katy Perry likes cherry Chapstick. ;D
carmex chapstick is amazing


i use it and it keeps my lips not chapped at all


and i live in a really cold place so i know it works good
i had this.Go to the pharmacy and ask for a cream for this. Helped me after few days. Otherwise never forget to moisturize your lips.
the best thing to do is to find any old chap stick and leave it on that includes putting it around your lips. also vaseline works but not as well as a chapstick
Chapstick(the brand)


Carmex(HIGHLY RECCOMEND)
Chapstick, i recommend Rainforest, or Vaseline. They both work fine.
I recommend putting Chapstick or another lip treatment on at night. That way it has 8 hours to go to work.
you should try blistex.... in the dark green tube...

What can I do for chapped lips?

they're the worse chapped lips i've ever had, they've been this way for 3 days. I tryed using hand lotion, and that worked super for the first night, but ever sence then it hasn';t helped any. someone told me it was the change in climate from travelling down to near phoenix, but even now that I'm back in the mountains, they are still as chapped as ever and its starting to cause me lots of pain and discomfort. What is causing this and what can I do about it?What can I do for chapped lips?
use burts bees chapstickWhat can I do for chapped lips?
umm...just use chastick and regulary mayb 2 to 3 times a day. Use it a lot easpecially when it is cold
dont lick them, keep them moist with chapstick or you can buy special creams and things at the local pharmacy that will clear it up really quick, if it gets worse, see a doctor and get a prescription for some stronger cream.
vasoline
lips get chapped because they are dried out, drink ALOT of water and it will help cure it for good and use chapstick or Carmex also for temporary immediate relief. keep drinking lots of water is the best bet though.
carmex and dont lick your lips
use neosporin ( triple antibiotic ointment )


and drink a ton of water
load them up with vaseline
CHAPSTICK
I suggest Carmex. Its really good but a little on the expensive side. If you can't find any then buy a big tub of vaseline and just keep applying it to your lips and they should soon clear up.





In the mean time, try not to touch or lick your ips, this will only make them worse!
i use burt's bees chapstick. It works great!
get some chap stick or if u dont hav any u just get ur lips wet with somthing else than ur saliva
use a medicated lip balm like blistex, it will heal the damage done while protecting from further damage
I suggest Chapstick. I suggest medicated Blistex, or Burts Bees Wax. It is phenomenal!
you know in some countries people use their ear wax as chapstick.
Mentholatum and drink plenty of water.
Vasoline works great for super dry lips. It stays on the lips longer and sinks in faster also olive oil or regular honey is wonderful and works real fast. :)
HAVE U HEARD OF CHAPSTICK?
Well I would try some intense care chapstick for during the day,make sure it has a high SPF(sun protection factor) and for the night vasaline gell. Make sure to drink A TON of water and DON';T lick your lips AT ALL!
petroleum
My fiance uses coconut oil - the type you find in the cooking oil section of the grocery store. It has no smell or flavor and within a day or 2 his lips look and feel 100 times better.
IT'S CALLED CARMAX,OR CHAPSTICK BUBBDY!!
lip therapy vaseline
carmex
Any chapstick.


They all work the same.


Just keep applying it. After you eat, before you sleep, after you brush your teeth, etc...





The climate change might possibly be why, like they said.
chapstick s the best stuff in the world!! and, if you are a girl, lip gloss works too- the moisterizing kind. but if you are a guy, no lip gloss, please.
vaselin
Drink tons of water. But best tip: use vaseline (yes i know it sounds sick but it's great for the lips). My last boyfriend did this and his lips were ALWAYS soft.
go get some Berts Bees wax,try to stay away from carmex you will become dependant on it
i lived in the mountains for a while and had this problem. vasaline/petroleum jelly were the only things that really cut the chap.

What is the best natural remedy for chapped lips?

i was just wondering what is the best remedy for chapped lips, since i found i may be allergeic to some substance that are in ordinary chapped lips. i was wondering are there any other lotions, creams, oil out there that soothe the skin and speed up healingWhat is the best natural remedy for chapped lips?
You might want to discuss this with your doctor.





The olden days Vaseline Petroleum Jelly was used. I don't know if anyone is allergic to it -- maybe it's worth discussing with your doctor who knows you...What is the best natural remedy for chapped lips?
You may want to try Burt's Bees Beeswax lip balm, only because the Burt's Bees line of products try to stay as natural as they can get for skin products. (I sound like a TV ad.) It's about $3 for lip balm but it might be worth the money if you're looking for a more natural way to go. I'm usually buying Carmex or similar lip balm but that might be a little harsh for sensitive lips.
The best, natural remedy you have on your own body-it is the oil produced behind your ear and works very well as a prevention and aides the healing process.





Moisturizers, creams and lotions usually have alcohol or some form of evaporation and usually succeeds in drying out the lips and making the problem worse.





Lip balms, chap-sticks etc. paste a thick layer over the damaged skin and not allow the damaged area to get rid of the dead while making new skin extending the amount of time to heal. Using these as a prevention does the opposite as skin will quit manufacturing it's own when it senses there is too much there already.





A light coat of Vaseline can help to prevent severe cracking without drying out your lips worse. LIGHT COAT!





Tie up your TONGUE!!! In other words, don't lick your lips. It always makes it worse!! I know its hard NOT to do.


Tell yourself your body will send in a bunch a ';lip driers'; because they know you are not suppose to have wet lips. They do exist just as ';moisture makers'; do.
uh...


chapstick

Anything other than chapstick that cures chapped lips?

I get chapped lips a lot because i play the trumpet, and because i'm one of those people that as soon as it gets cold if i don't put on chap stick every 20 minutes or so my lips get chapped. Is there any way that's more effective, but i don't have to do a lot? I'm not saying as an alternative to chap stick, but as an extra benefactor. thanks! Anything other than chapstick that cures chapped lips?
when i dont have chapstick i take my sweater and keep my mouth against it and blow warm air. after about the 10th time, my lips dont hurt as much.Anything other than chapstick that cures chapped lips?
i had the same problem (i play french horn)


putting chapstick on before you play will just make your lips slide around on the mouthpiece...and you dont want that


i put on a really thick coat of chap stick brand lip balm (it's my favorite) right before bed, and when i wake up, my lips are good


and i dont have to keep reapplying throughout the day
vaseline and more water in your diet. You could always put the chapstick on before you play the trumpet too and after you play. That will help your lips not be aggravated by the pressure.
plain vaseline like most people said and also try Burt's Bee (that's the brand name) of lip balm, they are wonderful and soothing. and some are specially made for people who have severe chapped lips
For myself, nearly anything, including Chapstick chaps my lips.


My lips are healthiest if I use nothing at all.
use Vaseline
try drinking more water.... chaped lips is a sign ur not gettin enough water.

Anyone have a solution for chronically chapped lips?

I don't use chapstick, and in fact I don't like anything coating my lips-even lipstick bugs me. But my lips are consistently chapped. Kissing totally aggravates it too.





Any solutions?Anyone have a solution for chronically chapped lips?
It sounds like you need to heal them up, and to do that you need to put some soothing balm on them. I usually use chapstick or Mary Kay's Satin Lips Lip Balm. The lip balm comes with a lip exfoliator which works wonders, but you can really get the same result by brushing your lips at the same time you brush your teeth, as someone has already suggested. Also, don't lick your lips as this just irritates already sensitive skin.





Last, but certainly not least, you need to drink more water to stop the chapping from coming back. That was my mom's favorite remedy for everything when I was growing up, and strangely enough, it's just the thing for chapped lips.








Hope this helps!Anyone have a solution for chronically chapped lips?
LOOKS LIKE YOU MAY HAVE TO RESORT TO PUTTING SOMETHING ON YOUR LIPS! I HAVE SAME PROBLEM! AT NITE I PUT ON A THICK LAYER OF VASELINE, WORKS FOR ME!!! :+)
PUT SOME OLIVE OIL ON YOUR BELLY BUTTON (NAVAL), EVERY DAY BEFORE SLEEPING. THE LIPS WILL BE SOFT AS ROSE PETALS.
I agree with the vaseline it works great on my chapped lips.


Also its not that expensive wich is a plus.


Also if u have any dry or chapped skin anywhere else u can use the vaseline there also.


Carmex is also good.


But I prefer vaseline.


goodluck


Morgaine
The reason the stuff probably bugs you is becasue your lips are chapped in the first place. You need to heal them just like dry skin that itches.





Buy one of the ';softer'; lip treatments. Vaseline makes a good one. You don't need to use a lot. Just a tiny bit will spread a long ways. After a couple of minutes, you probably won't even know it's there. Use it in the morning before you leave and at night before you go to bed, but probably after the kissing otherwise it will wear off.
CARMEX!
You've got to find something that you like to keep your lips moisturized. Tha't the only way to cure it. Olive oil heals chapped lips!
I used to have terrible lips too. I hate all lip balms except Chapstick. When I brush my teeth, I also brush my lips. I rinse my mouth and then put on Chapstick EVERYTIME. I constantly use it throughout the day, and I NEVER have any problems anymore.
Yeah i agree with carmex. I swear by carmex it helped me during the hot summers in FT Bliss El Paso and the cold winters In FT Drumm Upstate N.Y. You just gotta get over having balms on your lips or you will be plagued with gross lips for ever
Lips don't have oil glands like the rest of your body. They are more prone to chapping. The solution, when confronted with dry weather, is that you need to apply some emolient to your lips. Chapsticks is good. So is Vaseline. Or anything else like olive oil.
Try Euciren by Aquapohra it reallllly works for me.
IF U DON'T USE CHAPSTICK, THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO HEAL.... USING CHAPSTICK REALLY WORKS!! THERE ALSO IS A TREATMENT CALLED ';18-HOUR LIP TREATMENT'; THAT ONE REALLY WORKS!!

    Vaseline works best!! I spent a lot of time in the hospital and IV's. Many times, I wasn't allowed anything to eat or drink, therefore, I would get very dry. My nurses would give me vaseline for my lips and it always worked. It kept my lips very soft.





    I hope this helps!!

    There is lip balm with ingredients that can help.


    The best thing you can do to avoid chapped lips is to stop licking them. You can get Eczema on your lips.
    there is a balm called rose-bud. it is the best thing I have ever tried. you can get it at a drug store.
    vaseline i am a doctor and i get this question alot also dont lick lips and use chap stick so your lips dont get chapped u that during day nad vaseline at nite b4 bed!


    thanks,


    Mike
    Any lip care product should work, vaseline, burts bees, caramex, chapstick, etc.etc. Try to avoid licking your lips alot an dkeep them out of the sun and wind.
    well if you lick you lips alot stop. That will help the lips heal. And you probably need to start putting on chap stick.
    Just put on chapstick, don't take hot showers, and don't lick your lips.
    Best one ive found is Blistex Lip Medex (comes in both tub or tube). It was recommended by the pharmacist and I love it.
    Theres a chapstick called softlips it does wonders! =]
    Burt's Bees lip balm. Use it several times a day. Even 'sandpaper' lip will be gone within 24 hours.
    ya use vaseline, or just buy some chapstix at ur local store.

    try a little smudge of honey at night...
    don't lick them and use vaseline
    drink more liquids!
    vasaline
    drink lots of water, do not lick your lips
    Vaseline, cooking oil or vitamin E oil.
    How bout you just use chap stick and don't worry about it?
    Don't lick your lips, put some Vaseline on before going out side.
    vasoline
    Licking them in cold, dry weather will chap them... esp. if it's windy.
    Drinking water helps to hydrate your entire body including your skin. I try to up my water intake when I am sick or when it's arid. Seems to help and my lips don't get as chapped in the snow here when I do.
    drink lots of water....8 glasses a day!
    bepanthol - works great
    Amputation.
    Vaseline. Don't lick your lips.
    ive heard that the chapped lips are a sign that u are dehydrated, so drink lots of water and try not to lick your lips too often
    Try cocoa butter!
    keep your lips hydrated using anything BUT your tongue. if you use your tongue, your lips will feel better for a few but then they will get drier than before. drink fluids, pat some water on your lips, use vaseline, anything that won't burn your lips or taste nasty...
    dont pick at them or lick then when it is cold out. try to keep them moist.
    Drink water and stay in.


    Lips are chapped because of dehydration and exposure.
    Carmex is much better....otherwise put a little vaseline on your lips a couple of times a day and it will protect them from the elements.
    Rub Chicken Manure on them. That will keep you from licking them.
    Vaseline!! n don't lick your lips(makes it worse). cocoa butter. Chicken grease might help too if you wish.
    anything that will moisten the lips will do it. Vaseline, skin cream, etc
    Try to keep your lips moist, and don't lick your lips
    Don't lick your lips so much, it only makes it worse. Try some aloe vera.
    vitamin E get a bottle take one a day and take a pin and stick the capsule then rub on your lips at bedtime too.
    lick them, for me it works.
    get a tooth brush your lips with it gently

    How can I prevent chapped lips?

    It's a constant battle at work. I have to carry lip ointment (my favorite is Blistex) with me all the time. It works well....but I'm wondering what causes the chapped lips in the first place. How do I prevent the need for lip ointment? Is it dehydration? A vitamin deficiency? What?How can I prevent chapped lips?
    yep, it's dehydration so you have to drink plenty of water. The bad thing is, is that your body is already dehydrated so you have to rehydrate and keep up with it. Also, you'll want to get a natural lip balm...not blistex or chapstick etc. Get some at a whole food store. The lip balm you find in the drug store causes your lips to be dryer, therefore buying more of their productHow can I prevent chapped lips?
    I use Burt's Bees it's really good! and a way to keep them from getting chapped is by applying your lip balm everyday even if you don't have chapped lips that day. The dry air can cause chapped lips and also in the winter if you lick your lips and go out in the cold air that will make them chapped as well.





    Hope this helped!
    Chapped lips can result from cold weather, wind even hot weather. Dehydration can also be a factor. Drink a lot of water and use a chapstick with sunblock in it when you're in the sun. continue to use


    blistex and eventually your chapped lips will heal. good luck!
    This answer shall be of no help to you.


    BUT.


    My mother has the same problem, I do not know the cause of this problem but as you say, the only way to solve this is to carry lip ointment at all times. I don't think that you are able to prevent the need. Sorry...
    I would say its the dryness in the air. I have to wear some form of lip protection on my lips all the time. As the same wearing lotions to keep body from drying out and inching from the air.
    you need to gradually cut down using the blistex. your lips get so used to it that you need it all the time. eventually you wont need as much.
    drink a lot of water. it's probably because of dehydration.


    and wear Vaseline. it helps.
    Its probably caused by dry conditions, for example the office would be particularly dry due to air conditioning. Put on lip balm, and drink plenty of water!
    Don't lick them after eating something and don't dribble so as to keep them free of saliva at all times.





    If you keep your lips dry they won't get chapped.
    Vaseline
    Licking your lips or exposure to wind and cold brings on chapped lips !
    Cold weather, do you eat a lot of salt? All factors.
    get semen

    Is there any other way to cure chapped lips besides using chapstick?

    yeah my lips are chapped super bad i keep using chapstick but its not helping at all...and i tried different brands too...nothing seems to help..is there any family secrets or something u heard to help chapped lips? thanx...Is there any other way to cure chapped lips besides using chapstick?
    Get yourself some Carmex, put it on at night and wear it to bed. Stop licking your lips in the dry, cold weather. If you wear any lipstick or gloss, stop doing that as well. There is something in the lipstick and gloss that actually enhances dry lips. Probably has something to do with ';job security';.





    Also, if you can watch your fat intake, that would help a great deal. Rancid fats contribute to unhealthy skin, hair and in your case, chapped lips. They actually dry out the skin membranes. I wish you luck with this. It really takes some getting use to. Drink only when you are thirsty and make sure that it is lukewarm, warm or room temperature, whatever you drink. Cold drinks also pull oils from the skin and since your drinking these drinks and they touch your lips, they can, in fact, dry them out more than if you didn't drink anything.





    Good luck and watch your salt intake! If you want salt, replace hard salt with sea salt, or with Shoyu or Tamari Soy Sauce to help your body stay hydrated.Is there any other way to cure chapped lips besides using chapstick?
    AQUAPHOR
    I had chapt lips so bad one day that I had a chapped ring around my lip and the thing that really cured my lips was blistex it will help your lips but when your chappy lips have been cured use lip gloss on your lips they will moist your lips and plus if your a girl the guys will love them.Trust me I've been there and I have done that.
    Petroleum jelly applied at night before bed and during the day will help
    I love using organic unrefined coconut oil! It's fantastic on your lips, face ... all over!
    If you sleep with your mouth open, put something on them for sure such as Vaseline or carmex or any other lip balm. This will definitely prevent them from drying out at night.


    During the day, carmex is really great for protection, but it doesn't do much for HEALING. I would go to a drug store and buy a lip balm that specifically says it heals.


    Doing those two things together should do the trick!
    Don't use chapstick. It will just make your lips worse. It might feel good for awhile but it is not helping. It has the old rebound affect like nosedrops for a stuffy nose. Use a good lip balm. Even a good face moisturizer will be better.

    I use Accutane for my acne and my lips get chapped like no other! I use Medicated Blistex Lip Ointment and it works SO well!!! Just apply some to your lips but just leave it there, dont spread it. After 5-10 minutes you can spread it and it will feel great!
    Break a vitamin E open and rub some of it on your lips. It helps mine when they get chapped..
    stop licking your lips and dont peel it or touch it
    Don't you just hate winter? The dry air is the main reason people experience flaky splitting skin on the face and lips. After you brush your teeth, while your lips are still wet, take your toothbrush and move it along your lips with soft to medium strokes. It will remove some of the excess skin. I use A%26amp;D ointment ( the stuff used on an infants bottom) on my lips and it works great. It doesn't absorb as quickly as chapstick will. It's kinda gross if it gets on your tongue.

    Is pertroleum jelly good for chapped lips?

    It may be dehydration and a B-vitamin deficiency. I use A%26amp;D ointment or Vicks, but Vaseline is totally fine.
    Yes it is GOOD. Sometime BEST.
    Vaseline is by far the best thing for chapped lips, at least for me. I actually tend to be somewhat allergic to most chapsticks, they make my chapped lips worse and sometimes make them sting and swell. Vaseline always makes my chapped lips go away. If you put it on everyday, in the morning, at night, and anytime your lips feel dry, it will help prevent any chapping.
    Yeah it's good. They use it in the dental office when working on people with chapped lips. See below for good info on chapped lips.
    Yes it's great!!!!!!





    i have really dry lips and when i use it - they are great!!!





    you just have to remember to keep applying it!
    Yes, petroleum Jelly is good for chapped lips and many other forms of chapped and or dry skin.
    yes, its the best on chapped lips
    yes it's fine. are you getting enough water?
    I don't think it would hurt, but if you have really bad chapped lips, which I certainly do, why would you use something that is in a big tube or bottle, why not get blistex or chapstick. Actually the best thing I have ever used is expensive, but really worth every penny, it's from a French company called Fresh. I live in NYC, so they are all over the place, but I think they have a website, and they have a chapstick called Sugar that is fantastic. It has worked like nothing else I have ever tried. Sometimes you have to pay for something good.

  • What is up with my chapped lips?

    It seems like all of a sudden they get puffy and swollen and then by the next day they ';deflate'; and get chapped and painful. Finally, the skin on my lips starts to peel. What is going on and what could I do for this? Wearing chapstick doesn't even seem to help, it seems like my lips go into a cycle.What is up with my chapped lips?
    too much kissing can chap your lips. Keep some blistex for your lips in your purse.What is up with my chapped lips?
    Take a good multivitamin daily


    Also take a good essential fatty acid supplement daily.
    Dehydration can cause that...i know that when i go out the next day my lips will be swollen and feel like they are hot and then they seem chapped....drink more water.
    Use Carmex, a little yellow and red tube for about a buck.
    I certainly do hope that someone will provide you with an answer because I suffer from the same thing. At first I thought it might be the lipstick that I was wearing. I stopped using it and tried another brand, but to no avail. Still had the chapped lips with swelling and peeling. Mine, too, happens in cycles. My physician seems to think it is just my harmones going crazy. Whatever it is, it is causing me extreme discomfort at times.
    its also a good idea to brush ur lips with a different softer toothbrush after uv brush ur teeth. i used to have chapped lips and the more i brushed them it went away. its an easy way to get rid of the dry skin... more like exfoliating it... and then afterwards just apply vaseline and dont lick ur lips so often.
    Lips become softest and swollen around the time of your period, and when you're aroused. There are a lot of different lip balms that you can get from the pharmacy that might help.
    Use vasoline or cocco butter. And do your lick your lips alot? If so, stop licking your lips all the time. That could be causing the lips to chap.

    When do chapped lips from Accutane go away once you're done with it?

    I've been off for 2 days now.When do chapped lips from Accutane go away once you're done with it?
    I can't tell you from experience because I still have about a month left on the drug, but from what I've heard it's usually a couple weeks before they start getting back to normal. I do know that Accutane stays in the system for about a month, so I would think the chapped lips should definitely be lessening in that amount of time.When do chapped lips from Accutane go away once you're done with it?

    What is the best way to get rid of chapped lips quick?

    I hate chapped lips. It hurts so bad, and it looks gross. This is a family secret. Well I guess a lot of people do it. It seems gross, but trust me! it works. Buy some Vaseline (petroleum jelly) at the pharmacy. You probably already have some at home. Before you go to bed, take a glob and rub it on your lips, and the skin around your lips. Don't be afraid to put a lot on. Remember to put a wash cloth or something on your pillow to make sure you don't make a mess as you sleep. Putting pure Vaseline on lips, and letting it set, is 100% more effective then putting on lip balm with Vaseline in it. When you wake up in the morning, rinse your mouth area. You will feel great. For the rest of the day, apply a lightweight natural lip balm. Not lip gloss!What is the best way to get rid of chapped lips quick?
    Get a moist towel and gently rub your lips to get rid of the dead skin. Then go through your mom's stuff or something and get eye moisturizer. it's weird and definitely doesn't taste good like chapstick, but is made for super moisturizing. dab some on (because it's probably expensive) and let it sink in. this should help a lot.





    avoid chapstick because that never helps me. i use burts beeswax regularly, but when i get all chapped i use vaseline. again, doesn't taste good, but definitely fixes the problem.What is the best way to get rid of chapped lips quick?
    What I use to get rid of chapped lips is the ChapStick lip butter. It's a little expensive (nothing like ten dollars or anything) but it really does the trick. Usually, with other brands or whatever, my lips peel and feel uncomfortable but this stuff is amazing. It fights off Texas heat like a madman and it feels really nice on your lips.
    Use Vaseline right before you go to sleep, and put on a lot. Then during the day always have chap stick with you. I think the best chap stick to use, is the ChapStick brand Moisturizer (it's the blue one). Hope this helped!
    Put vaseline on your lips and brush with a toothbrush. After that keep lots of vaseline on them

    Vaseline is the best product. Get a mini jar and keep in your purse or car. Try to prevent licking your lips and don't forget to use it ever night before you go to bed!

    What can I use for my baby's chapped lips?

    My baby is one week old and her lips have been very dry for a couple of days. I'm afraid to use chapstick because she is so small and will probably get some in her mouth. I've searched online and haven't found anything about babies lip balm or chap stick. I think I'm going to ask her doctor tomorrow, but I just wondered if anyone could help.What can I use for my baby's chapped lips?
    I wouldn't use anything. Babies' skin is waking up, and some flaking and peeling is normal. Wait and it should resolve itself.What can I use for my baby's chapped lips?
    Try Vaseline. It sound like your baby may be dehydrated. Is she peeing a lot, is her tongue wet? If not you need to get her to the doctor immediately, babies with dehydration don't do well. I am talking from experience. My daughter got diarrhea at 11 months and within 12 hours she was extremely dehydrated. The ER staff told us that if we had waited another 2 hours to bring her in she would have died from the dehydration.





    I don't want to scare you but you should probably get her in, especially since she is only a week old.
    vaseline.
    dry lips on an infant is a sign they are not getting enough to eat go to the emergency room now or call your pediatrician because it is really not good for your baby to be dehydrated.and never put anything on your babies lips that isn't safe to eat so using olive oil or avocado oil would be ok other than that nothing





    Tara
    Lansinoh, you use it when you have cracked nipples... it is SAFE if baby gets it in mouth.


    Are they dry or is it more of a ';nursing blister';? My son (6 weeks) had ';dry'; lips w/ a nursing blister for the first 2 weeks...


    If her diaper is wet every 2-3 hours, and she is having a ';poop stain'; after every feeding, sje is hydrated. If you can't tell that she is wet, put a tissue in her diaper....


    Congratulations!! Welcome to Worried Parent 101! It never ends, trust me! There is always something to worry about!!
    Vaseline work good and is safe if you use small amount.1-2 times a day.
    yep i used vaseline as my babies lip got so dry it split. worked really well and it wont harm her if it gets in her mouth. good luck
    Try Vaseline
    My son's lips were really chapped when he was that age - the nurses at the hospital said regular chapstick would be fine (that's all I had). We didn't have to use it much. Just put a little on your (clean) finger and apply it to her lips.
    Vaseline has been recommended by Doctors for uses like this for quite a few years.
    When my baby was a newborn he also had chapped lips. The doctor said it was normal and it would go away. It's often due to breasfeeding on his new sensitive lips. He'll adjust and it should clear up in a week or two.
    Use A%26amp;D ointment or vaseline. Is she getting enough liquids? Don't forget to give your baby water. Although they do get some from breastmilk of formula, it's always a good idea to have a bottle of water to give your baby from time to time.

    How do you reduce redness from chapped lips?

    im on accutane and my lips are chapped as i expected but i was wondering if anyone knew how to reduce the redness...it kinda looks like i attempted to put on lipstick lolHow do you reduce redness from chapped lips?
    Try Vaseline, a little bit of Vitacilina (you can get it at places like Food-4-Less or Vallarta, which sell Latin products) or pure honey -- but don't lick it off! All-natural aloe vera will probably help as well.





    Good luck! I hope the Accutane works for you.How do you reduce redness from chapped lips?
    I'm on exactly the same treatment now, but in Britain. I have the same problem, so I'm glad you asked this question. Thanks, x Report Abuse

    You are trying to get rid of redness, so you need something that constricts blood vessels:





    Put a few drops of Visine on your red lips.





    Then apply chapstick that has mint or menthol added like Burt's Bees Lip Balm.
    well, try drinking a lot of water. my dad told me that could really help. if i doesnt, the use burts bees lip balm. it works so well, and you can find it @ a walgreens. that stuff kinda chills ur lips and tastes like crap, so u wont wanna lick them. then, they hydrate your lips, and they look normal again.
    try and buy a chapstick that has green tea in it ...it will soothe the redness and your lips should be semi normal atleast.... or try putting cool green tea bags on you lips for a couple minutes....





    whats accutane??
    Try putting a little bit of Vaseline on the outside of your lips, where the redness is. Then put a chapstick on. Then eat some fruit.
    vaseline, chapstick, any moisturizing lip balm

    You can safely put a light coating of over the counter hydrocortisone on it. Also, similar to Vaseline, Aquaphor is excellent on protecting and moisturizing the lips.

    Is there a way to not have chapped lips besides using chap stick?

    i always get chapped lips is it really normal?Is there a way to not have chapped lips besides using chap stick?
    It depends on what is causing the chapped lip condition. If you are overly conscious of getting chapped lips, you may be licking or smacking them, thinking that it will help. It doesn't! Instead, it will accelerate the chapping process. If you are exposed to sun or wind, you should add some form of protection on the lips. I like to use a lip balm made of beeswax. For sun exposure, you need to have protection, so be sure to use a sunscreen based lip balm or gel in this case.Is there a way to not have chapped lips besides using chap stick?
    Put vaseline on for about 3-5 minutes then get a old tooth brush and wet with water then brush your lips like you where brushing ur teeth Report Abuse

    Rub cream on them every night before you go to bed
    Don't use vaeline ever (petroleum on your skin contrary to marketing and belief is really bad and makes it worse)





    Drink water and apply pure vitamin e (cut the capsule open and apply as often as you need to especially before bed)





    Take a multi vitamin
    Use Vaseline, the original petroleum jelly or lick your lips a lot.
    You may be licking your lips to much. Put some Vaseline or Chapstick on them.
    Chapped lips are one of the first signs of dehydration. If you are drinking plenty of water every day, you shouldn't have chapped lips.





    Also, Mary Kay has a lip mask with 2 steps that doesn't take more than a couple minutes. The first, a mask that you put on your lips and once it dries, you just rub it off. This removes all the dead skin from your lips. Then you come back with step two, which is a lip balm that leaves them hydrated and nice. You only have to do it maybe once a month at home and you lips should be fine, as long as you keep yourself hydrated.
    Before you go to bed put lot's of Vaseline on them, It will work wonders.
    besides using chap stick, drink lots of water. It keeps your lips moist.


    don't worry, I always get chapped lips, it is normal. It could be, depending on where you live, that cold weather. Or if you sleep with a fan right on your face, that always gets my lips chaped, but I still do it. Put chap stick on everytime you think of see one. I always put it on before bed and like 10 times during the day, and remember to drink plenty of water!!

    Chap Stick or Blistex.





    At any drug store.
    maybe aloe would help
    I read somewhere that rubbing an ice cube on your lips helps. I do it when I loose my chapstick and it does help a little. It sounds weird, I know, but may be able to help for relief. If nothing else, it will exfoliate too.

    put on your favourite lipbalm, leave for a few minutes, scrub off all the dead skin with a damp flannel in circular motions and then put on a fresh layer of lipbalm. continue to wear lipbalm whenever you can, i recommend chapstick original, as i;m sure all those extra flavours don't do your lips any good x
    I just got my vertical labret done and lips dried out insanely bad; I started using blistex; they have ointment and chapstick depending on the severity of your lips. Burt's Bee's was what I used before but it doesn't agree with my piercing.


    So I'd say try both. They're the best I've used.


    Burt's Bees is like 4 bucks a stick where Blistex is maybe 2 so if that effects your choice at all, hey.

    Is chapped lips contagious? Can you kiss someone and give it to them?

    I haven't had chapped lips in years. Then my boyfriend got them when he went to mexico, and he kissed me and then I got them. He totally gave me chapped lips.Is chapped lips contagious? Can you kiss someone and give it to them?
    Chapped lips are not contagious. They are caused from windburn or dehydration. The best thing to do to get rid of them is put neosporin on them (especially at night ) and they will heal usually by morning. Then use chapstick or blistick (I like it best) whenever you go outside when it is windy and when you are not drinking enough liquids.Is chapped lips contagious? Can you kiss someone and give it to them?
    Thats actually a good qustion! It is not the chapped lips that are contagious by theirselves its what underneath chapped lips. If you kiss someone who has chapped lips that have like hep b you could get it if they are cracked and you have the slightest sore in your mouth so, umm i probably do not think that i would kiss anyone that has severe chapped lips
    he didn't give you chapped lips, ';Dehydration'; is not contagious.





    Although he could have gotten a virus from mexico that causes Dehydration, and had given it to you.
    Chapped lips aren't contagoius. They are caused by dehydration. Drink more and use chap stick. It was probably the dry heat that gave you chapped lips.
    No chap lips are not contagious. Get yourself some lip balm,carmex is really good, and use it. Give him some too and drink lots of fluids.
    chapped lips no , cold sores yes. your lips could just be chapped cuz it happens just a coincidence.
    No. You two may be dehydrated. Drink more water and apply lipbalm especially if it is cold and windy
    chapped lips is just dry skin

    What is good for curing severly chapped lips?

    I have tried everything!What is good for curing severly chapped lips?
    before you go to bed, smear on a whole bunch of vaseline. it will absorb into your lips more than if you put it on during the day. you won't lick it off and it will all stay on your lips. oh also put some vaseline on before you take a reeeeally hot shower. the steam will cause the vaseline to absorb into your lips faster.What is good for curing severly chapped lips?
    1. Drink 6 to 8 ounces of water daily. Make water your friend.


    2. Eat or drink foods that nourish the skin (veggies, fruits, salads), Take extra vitamin C and drink plenty of OJ or favorite juice.


    3. Avoid drinks that dehydrate you--any soft drink with caffeine (ESPECIALLY Mtn. Dew, all those ';Action'; drinks, coffee, tea)


    4. Avoid alcohol, also dehydrates you.


    5. Switch to non-caffeinated herbal teas.


    6. Chapstick and blistex.
    Carmax
    vaseline
    If you react to lip balms as I have been known to do, you might still have to look. I've been known to change my lip balm every 8 months because I develop reactions. One of my most severe reactions actually was to Vaseline
    vaseline works really good. put it on before going outside. always wear chapstick!
    burts bees lip balm or CO Bigelow by bath %26amp;body works! they are the best... i have used everything that everyone else says to use and it did not work for me.. but this does for some reason
    drink alot of water and try taking some omega-3 fatty acid found in fish oil.
    Cocoa butter and shea butter, both found in health food stores, work really really well. Petroleum jelly (vaseline) is great for a quick fix but don't overuse it or it will work adversely and make your lips even drier. Also, don't overuse products like Carmex -- they too will dry out your lips -- your lips get 'addicted' to them.
    I use Carmex or Blistex when I get chapped lips. Put some on before you go to sleep every night so that it will soak in, as well as putting some on during the day. If this does not work, go to see your doctor to see if there is a more serious problem.

  • How do you get rid of chapped lips?

    Ive had chapped lips for years and have literally tried everythin from vaseline to chapstick. Is there any other ways to get rid of it?


    xxxHow do you get rid of chapped lips?
    Sometimes the wax in lip balms/chap sticks can actually block the moisture from getting in, they act as a barrier rather than a cure. It鈥檚 a quick relief but could make your lips worse. Vaseline deadens the outer layer of the skin on the lips and discolors them - don't use it!





    It might be an idea to try and find out the cause, it is possible you could be dehydrated. Drink lots of fluids such as water or herbal tea, and avoid sodas and caffiene. Try Aloe Vera gel if you can get hold of some in your health store.How do you get rid of chapped lips?
    Try not licking your lips...that will dry them out esp.in winter. Wash your lips and put honey on them. It will help with the raw chapped soar part of it. You can also use virgin Olive oil. In the Bible wounds were cleaned and bound with olive oil and wine. See story about the Good Samaritan in the Bible. Once they are healed, use olive oil under your lipstick or whatever. Good luck !!
    I found a great lip treatment its from a company called bee luscious cosmetics it primarily sold as a lip plumper but actually is not what it does is work to build hydration to your lips and it heals chapped lips in 24 hours my clients adore this product. Its called liptoxyl
    i don't know, if you've been suffering this long then it could be worth seeing your doctor. but i have to say, i used to suffer chapped lips and i went overboard on the chapstick to get rid of it. as a result my lips were red raw because i'd used too much. so you may now have this problem if you have been using a lot.
    CARMEX!


    i live for that stuff. for me the


    trick is to brush my teet so that


    is moistens up my lips, then put


    some carmex on afterwards.





    if your lips are REALLY chapped,


    whenever the carmex starts to dry


    up just keep applying it. soon your


    lips will be good as new. how do i


    know this makes your lips soft? ..














    ';so i've been told'; haha good luck!
    Have you tried Blistex's Lip Medex?





    I've had chapped lips like mad the past two years, and this stuff works...for a little bit, at least. I have to carry it with me wherever I go. Other then that, I don't know any other solutions.





    And don't use lipstick...that **** makes it worse, and after about an hour, it goes all weird because your lips get chapped again.
    theres a lil blue tube called blissex and theres carmex in a yellow tube these work better than chapsticks.





    get a soft toothbrush and gently exfoliate your lips then put loadsa lipbalm on them.





    advoid salty foods and donuts and anything food that makes you lick your lips.


    try lip gloss so u dont lick it off
    I had the same problem





    but all u have to do is put on LOADS of Vaseline on before u go to sleep and u will be able to see the effects as soon as u wake up





    if u keep doing that then u will never suffer from chapped lips again, i promise u





    hope this helps u

    Maybe your toothpaste is a bit fierce. I found that mine tended to remove natural grease from my lips. Rinse your lips well in case a residue remains. Then try aloe vera. it is cheap but very effective. And cut down on the snogging, if you can.
    Yes, I had the same problem when I was a kid. The answer is a little out there but try it anyway, drink at least 40oz of water a day, and don't drink as much soda or processed juice. also try to get lip balm that has an SPF in it.
    I use the Aquafina Hydrating Lip Balm. You can get them at walmart. They come in a pack of 3 AQUAFINA FLAVORSPLASH LIP BALMS - Wild Berry, Citrus Blend, Raspberry. Or you can get them separate.


    They work really good.
    i use BURT'S BEES beeswax lip balm it is all natural and it helps chapped lips fast And when you put it on you get a soothing cooling and refreshing feeling and it leaves you with a great sensation.
    exfoliate your lips once/twice a week. lips have dead skin as well. mary kay has good products for exfoliating lips and the one thing I'd recommend is getting their satin lip/lip balm! I'm not a huge fan of mary kay but I find these two items irresistable!

    well Vaseline always works 4me but ur case dear i think u should look for d cause 1st then d cure just drop by ur physician %26amp; ask for some hand on advise sometime these things can be caused by luck of vitamins.or a pharmacist can help out too.
    vaselline and moisturiser. put it on every few hrs. i carry the little one round so can reapply every now and then and i never get chapped lips.
    vaseline isn't amazing i agree.


    but if you want to cover it up use a brownish lipstick or gloss


    also


    you can put vaseline on and then lip gloss over the top


    works for me:)
    gently rub your lips in a circular motion with a towel to get rid of the loose skin and invigorate your lips. then use Blistex relief cream
    1. Drink more water.





    You may want to try some natural alternatives, check out some health food stores and their lip moisturizers.
    before you go to sleep mix olive oil with sugar then rub into your lips - wash it off then put loads of vaseline on





    Hope I helped :D
    I use cocoa butter every time I wash my lips, after brushing teeth, after lick it with tongue...
    Soft lips chapstick, It's the best. The 1st time I used it my lips went super soft. But after like 2 weeks it starts working like regular chapstick
    burts bees lip chap works really well i no you have said you have tried chapstick but I think you should give this certain type a try
    make sure to use chap sticks every minute of the day...


    and it'll be cured and always pill of dried layers of skin on your lips...
    the only thing that will work is medicated lip cream, cant remeber the name just ask any good pharmasist.
    Dont bite your lips or pick them.


    Every half hour put on another layer of chapstick.
    vaseline it great i love it!
    try burts bees. my sister had the exact same problem and burts bees chapstick worked amazingly well!
    brush your lips w/ your toothbrush after brushing teeth in the morning.. or before.. um apply a moisturizing lip balm
    Try a medicated lip balm. Superdrug do a good one and it's only 拢1.

    Hydrate from the inside and moisturize from the outside.





    Do no underestimate the power of a glass of water. Look what it does for a vase of flowers.





    I too have issues with dry lips so own multiple chap sticks, Labello is my preferred brand, so I can leave them in the jackets, coats and bags I use the most. Et voila, I am never without.I have severely chapped lips and always have. Is there anything that helps?
    Chapped lips are caused by basically two things. One is weather such as wind or sun. The other cause, and most common, is dehydration. We Americans have replaced our water intake with soft drinks, tea, and coffee. These products remove water from our system. If you indulge in these, try giving them up for a week and drinking at least three quarts of water a day. You will probably notice a change with the lip condition and how you generally feel.
    ok this has worked for me although my lips werent severely chapped.


    maybe once a day or twice, brush ur lips without toothpaste, this they fell smooth. it kind of exfoliates. works good...
    I always have that blistex and blisteze are the best for chapped lips...have you tried those? if not, you can get them along with the lip balm in pharmacists.

    Pls don't suggest lip balm..What are some cures for chapped lips?
    just drink plenty of water, it will moisten your lips and take bath everyday, Winter is dry season, so don;t get yourself dried enough. if u are tired of usung lip balm take instead vaseline or some thick cream, use it overnight and see better results in the day. Another thing is drinking too much coffee in my opinio ruins lips.What are some cures for chapped lips?
    Protect your lips. Use an oil-based lubricating cream or lip balm containing petrolatum or beeswax. Before going out in cold, dry weather, apply lip cream or balm that contains sunscreen 鈥?and then cover your lips with a scarf. Reapply often while outdoors.


    Avoid licking your lips. Saliva evaporates quickly, leaving lips drier than before you licked them. If you tend to lick your lips, avoid flavored lip balm 鈥?which may tempt you to lick your lips even more.


    Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids, and moisten the air in your home with a humidifier.
    Eugh I feel your pain I had the same problem,





    All this gross skin was there and then i'd try to get rid of it and my lips would start bleeding.





    The only think that worked fully for me was Carmex.


    It Is at the chemist or maybe at some supermarkets and the dermatologist gave it to me because I dry out alot.


    It works trus me you'll never go back,


    (haha I sound like a sales person :P )





    GIVE IT A TRY!!!!


    It is in a yellow circle thing :)
    Pure vitamin E oil from any health food shop or even a touch of olive oil before going to bed. Vaseline also works





    Stay away from any lip balms containing menthol or camphor, like many do, as they can irritate your lips and cause more dryness.
    Before you go to sleep, put on some Burt's Bees chap stick and when you wake up they will be really smooth. Or if that doesn't work, they brush your lips with a toothbrush in the morning.
    Buy a huge tub of Vaseline and smear it on your lips. I apply Vaseline, regularly throughout the day, and it looks like a natural shine. Of course, you're free to glob it on in private. It really works for me!
    DON'T lick your lips ..i used to do that all the time...apparently thats really bad for them and i use vaseline that works very well. :) good luck
    Don't lick your lips!





    Anyways, try out vaseline.
    Blistex
    use Burts Bee's it doesnt come off easily and works the second you put it on.
    Why not Lip Balm?

    What should I do about chapped lips?

    My lips are really chapped. What can I do right now to get rid of that and how can I prevent it in the future?What should I do about chapped lips?
    The first step in preventing chapped lips is to stop licking. Constant wetting and drying sucks the moisture from lips' outer layer, causing them to feel dry, which prompts more licking, creating a vicious cycle. Dehydrated lips are also more susceptible to dry, windy conditions.


    -- A moisturizing lip balm, especially those containing dimethicone, will help retain natural moisture and protect dry, chapped lips.


    -- Drinking lots of water will help prevent dehydration, which may contribute to chapped lips and dry skin.


    -- Smoothing a generous coating of lip balm on lips before bed will help to moisturize lips while you sleep.


    -- The sun's UV rays are responsible for 90 percent of visible damage we commonly attribute to aging. A lip balm that contains a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 15 will help prevent sunburn during outdoor activities, and may reduce the risks of skin aging, skin cancer, and other harmful effects of the sun.


    -- Regular lipstick products, especially some long-wearing varieties, may feel drying. A base coat of lip balm will add needed moisture during winter months.


    -- If lips become chapped, avoid wearing lipsticks while lips are recovering as drying products in color pigments may irritate chapped lips. Also keep acidic foods from touching delicate lips until they've healed.


    -- Lip exfoliators such as Softlips Nightly Care(TM) buff away dry, dead skin cells and stimulate growth of new, vibrant cells. The interactive Beta Hydroxy formula of Softlips Nightly Care(TM) conditions lips that may be sensitive to strong Alpha Hydroxy chemical peels, and the overnight system helps reduce concern about sun damage to freshly exfoliated skin.

    Lots of Vaseline at nighttime (big time coat it)


    Heavy Carmex chapstick/goo stuff during the day.





    It has really helped her.





    Good luck!
    ChapStick or other lip balms such as Carmex. In the future, apply these to your lips regularly throughout the day and quit when you feel they aren't getting chapped anymore.
    the truth about chapped lips and dry skin is that your body is not getting enough water. Although lotions and lip balms cvoat and hold in moisture, nothing can truely put moisture into your body except water. Your best bet is to drink at least 8 - 8oz glasses of water per day along with using chap stick for your lips and lotion for your skin.
    chapstick and try drinking water to keep them from getting chaped again it works for me
    You should use medicated chapstick, apply it genourously and probably every hour.
    Have a tube of lip balm where ever you are.Car,purse,bedroom.Apply it every few hours.Winter does a number on lips.Even vaseline will protect your lips from the harsh dry weather.Or wear moisturing lipstick.Good luck!

    What can I do about chapped lips?

    Ever since I was little, my lips have always gotten chapped easily. I drink nothing but water and plenty of it. I even have a humidifier running all day. And still, they're chapped. I try not to use chap stick unless it gets really bad, because I don't want to become dependent on it. I just don't want them to get chapped in the first place! What else can I do?What can I do about chapped lips?
    This is what I do when it gets really bad, (which doesn't happen that often) take a warm washcloth and run it gently over your lips, this will exfoliate them. Then you can put one of the following on your lips. You could use a vitamin E stick (or even break a vitamin E pill over you lips) or a Cocoa Butter stick. I don't know what you mean by becoming dependent on chap stick, if your lips get chapped easily then you should always have some on hand just in case. I use 100% Cocoa butter by Queen Helene on my lips and they don't get chapped.What can I do about chapped lips?
    Just to stop the actual chapping you should try carmex for 3 days and then stop for a week and then try for another 3 days (and so on). This should get rid of the chapped lips but you'll have to be dependent on it. It's like...ever since I moved to London my hands go incredibly dry.... I have to use hand lotion all the time otherwise the skin breaks.





    Also you should talk to a dermatologist. It might be the most normal thing in the world or it could be a sign that something else is wrong or missing (ie vitamin E).


    I really don't think this is the case since you've had it since you were little, but what do I know?





    Good luck.
    I would suggest a Lip balm with a moisturizer and 4 u to stop licking them, the weather isn't helping.

    I have been to the Doctor twice and he has been treating it as cold sores but nothing is working. The rash goes about a half an inch above and below my upper and lower lips. My lips are dry and painful. Lip balms relieve the the dryness and I put vasiline on them at night. the dr first prescribed Alebra....and after 10 days valtrex....nothing is working. Any suggestions?What causes dry, peeling, chapped lips with an occasional cold sore. Have had it for 2 months?
    drink lots of water to hydrate your body.. there is a lip balm by a company called Jordan Essentials I use and swear helps better than anything else i have tried.. i put on all day. Most people use drying type things for herpes, and it hurts.. i found if i moisten and use the lip balm, healed faster , and didn't hurt half as much. don't know if this helps you, but, it is natural. and couldn't hurt.. If your doctor can't figure out, you got me... the lips are a good gauge to tell us if we are hydrated or not i was told as a child.. i go by that.. good luck..What causes dry, peeling, chapped lips with an occasional cold sore. Have had it for 2 months?
    Might be a different form of herpes than what he's treating you for(thats what cold sores are). Or a hormone imbalance.

    If you add brown sugar to bag balm or vaseline, you can even use it plain, use it to exfoliate your lips. Works well, is cheap, and doesn't leave a nasty taste in your mouth.I heard about a remedy for chapped lips? had to do with brown sugar?

    http://www.amazon.com/Egyptian-Magic-Em4鈥?/a>


    This is really good. It's for everything.
    First things first, do not repititively lick your chapped lips. Your saliva has enzymes in it that actually contribute to keeping them chapped.





    With that said, let me say that in my experience, with three kids, the best product that I have come across is the neosporin lip treatment. It really works well.





    If you have problems with chronic recurrent chapped lips, then you can use it routinely, but make sure that you are drinking 6-8 glasses of uncaffeinated, uncarbonated beverages per day. This keeps your lips and skin hydrated.





    I am attaching the link to the lip balm I suggested. But most importantly, do not lick your lips, it will keep them chapped.

    Anyone know a at home remedy for very dry/chapped lips?

    I need some ideas! my lips are so dry, i've tried chapsticks, vaseline, olive oil/sugar.. arghhhh nothing is working





    anyone have any other ideas using things I can find around the house? maybe something i can leave on them overnight?Anyone know a at home remedy for very dry/chapped lips?
    Vitamin E oil is good for your skin, it should do more than olive oil.





    Wet lips will chap more. If you sleep with your mouth open or lick your lips as a habit, that could be the source of the problem.





    I've always found that keeping on top of it matters too. Be very vigilant about whatever remedy you're using. It might be too late at the moment, but once they get better, don't stop taking extra careful care of them to keep them healthy.Anyone know a at home remedy for very dry/chapped lips?
    when i put my daily moisturizer on, i also rub it all over my mouth and lips... usually keeps them soft. dont lick them, itll make them worse, and drink lots of water. thatll keep you hydrated from the inside out. other than that, try blistex... the one that comes in a tube... or medicated lip ointment. chapped lips can be the most annoying thing in the world





    good luck :)

    What is the best way to get rid of chapped lips quick?

    I hate chapped lips. It hurts so bad, and it looks gross. This is a family secret. Well I guess a lot of people do it. It seems gross, but trust me! it works. Buy some Vaseline (petroleum jelly) at the pharmacy. You probably already have some at home. Before you go to bed, take a glob and rub it on your lips, and the skin around your lips. Don't be afraid to put a lot on. Remember to put a wash cloth or something on your pillow to make sure you don't make a mess as you sleep. Putting pure Vaseline on lips, and letting it set, is 100% more effective then putting on lip balm with Vaseline in it. When you wake up in the morning, rinse your mouth area. You will feel great. For the rest of the day, apply a lightweight natural lip balm. Not lip gloss!What is the best way to get rid of chapped lips quick?
    Get a moist towel and gently rub your lips to get rid of the dead skin. Then go through your mom's stuff or something and get eye moisturizer. it's weird and definitely doesn't taste good like chapstick, but is made for super moisturizing. dab some on (because it's probably expensive) and let it sink in. this should help a lot.





    avoid chapstick because that never helps me. i use burts beeswax regularly, but when i get all chapped i use vaseline. again, doesn't taste good, but definitely fixes the problem.What is the best way to get rid of chapped lips quick?
    What I use to get rid of chapped lips is the ChapStick lip butter. It's a little expensive (nothing like ten dollars or anything) but it really does the trick. Usually, with other brands or whatever, my lips peel and feel uncomfortable but this stuff is amazing. It fights off Texas heat like a madman and it feels really nice on your lips.
    Use Vaseline right before you go to sleep, and put on a lot. Then during the day always have chap stick with you. I think the best chap stick to use, is the ChapStick brand Moisturizer (it's the blue one). Hope this helped!
    Put vaseline on your lips and brush with a toothbrush. After that keep lots of vaseline on them

    What can I use for my baby's chapped lips?

    My baby is one week old and her lips have been very dry for a couple of days. I'm afraid to use chapstick because she is so small and will probably get some in her mouth. I've searched online and haven't found anything about babies lip balm or chap stick. I think I'm going to ask her doctor tomorrow, but I just wondered if anyone could help.What can I use for my baby's chapped lips?
    I wouldn't use anything. Babies' skin is waking up, and some flaking and peeling is normal. Wait and it should resolve itself.What can I use for my baby's chapped lips?
    Try Vaseline. It sound like your baby may be dehydrated. Is she peeing a lot, is her tongue wet? If not you need to get her to the doctor immediately, babies with dehydration don't do well. I am talking from experience. My daughter got diarrhea at 11 months and within 12 hours she was extremely dehydrated. The ER staff told us that if we had waited another 2 hours to bring her in she would have died from the dehydration.





    I don't want to scare you but you should probably get her in, especially since she is only a week old.
    vaseline.
    dry lips on an infant is a sign they are not getting enough to eat go to the emergency room now or call your pediatrician because it is really not good for your baby to be dehydrated.and never put anything on your babies lips that isn't safe to eat so using olive oil or avocado oil would be ok other than that nothing





    Tara
    Lansinoh, you use it when you have cracked nipples... it is SAFE if baby gets it in mouth.


    Are they dry or is it more of a ';nursing blister';? My son (6 weeks) had ';dry'; lips w/ a nursing blister for the first 2 weeks...


    If her diaper is wet every 2-3 hours, and she is having a ';poop stain'; after every feeding, sje is hydrated. If you can't tell that she is wet, put a tissue in her diaper....


    Congratulations!! Welcome to Worried Parent 101! It never ends, trust me! There is always something to worry about!!
    Vaseline work good and is safe if you use small amount.1-2 times a day.
    yep i used vaseline as my babies lip got so dry it split. worked really well and it wont harm her if it gets in her mouth. good luck
    Try Vaseline
    My son's lips were really chapped when he was that age - the nurses at the hospital said regular chapstick would be fine (that's all I had). We didn't have to use it much. Just put a little on your (clean) finger and apply it to her lips.
    Vaseline has been recommended by Doctors for uses like this for quite a few years.
    When my baby was a newborn he also had chapped lips. The doctor said it was normal and it would go away. It's often due to breasfeeding on his new sensitive lips. He'll adjust and it should clear up in a week or two.
    Use A%26amp;D ointment or vaseline. Is she getting enough liquids? Don't forget to give your baby water. Although they do get some from breastmilk of formula, it's always a good idea to have a bottle of water to give your baby from time to time.

    Is there a way to not have chapped lips besides using chap stick?

    i always get chapped lips is it really normal?Is there a way to not have chapped lips besides using chap stick?
    It depends on what is causing the chapped lip condition. If you are overly conscious of getting chapped lips, you may be licking or smacking them, thinking that it will help. It doesn't! Instead, it will accelerate the chapping process. If you are exposed to sun or wind, you should add some form of protection on the lips. I like to use a lip balm made of beeswax. For sun exposure, you need to have protection, so be sure to use a sunscreen based lip balm or gel in this case.Is there a way to not have chapped lips besides using chap stick?
    Put vaseline on for about 3-5 minutes then get a old tooth brush and wet with water then brush your lips like you where brushing ur teeth Report Abuse

    Rub cream on them every night before you go to bed
    Don't use vaeline ever (petroleum on your skin contrary to marketing and belief is really bad and makes it worse)





    Drink water and apply pure vitamin e (cut the capsule open and apply as often as you need to especially before bed)





    Take a multi vitamin
    Use Vaseline, the original petroleum jelly or lick your lips a lot.
    You may be licking your lips to much. Put some Vaseline or Chapstick on them.
    Chapped lips are one of the first signs of dehydration. If you are drinking plenty of water every day, you shouldn't have chapped lips.





    Also, Mary Kay has a lip mask with 2 steps that doesn't take more than a couple minutes. The first, a mask that you put on your lips and once it dries, you just rub it off. This removes all the dead skin from your lips. Then you come back with step two, which is a lip balm that leaves them hydrated and nice. You only have to do it maybe once a month at home and you lips should be fine, as long as you keep yourself hydrated.
    Before you go to bed put lot's of Vaseline on them, It will work wonders.
    besides using chap stick, drink lots of water. It keeps your lips moist.


    don't worry, I always get chapped lips, it is normal. It could be, depending on where you live, that cold weather. Or if you sleep with a fan right on your face, that always gets my lips chaped, but I still do it. Put chap stick on everytime you think of see one. I always put it on before bed and like 10 times during the day, and remember to drink plenty of water!!

    What's the best remedy for chapped lips?

    My lips are all dry and chapped from the cold wind and dry air.

    Any other suggestions?What's the best remedy for chapped lips?
    lip balmWhat's the best remedy for chapped lips?
    Vaseline, on your lips all night.
    Drink more water AND include healthy natural oils in your diet.


    Healthy oils can be found in avocados, sardines, fish, etc.


    Ask your physician, if your chapped lips may be a symptom of dehydration or something more serious.





    Also, applying a thin layer if Vaseline to lips prior to going out in the


    cold will do wonders, for several hours. Vaseline should go on top of lipstick or lip gloss.
    Any brand of chapstick should do the trick, just try going to your local drug store. Feel better soon!

    either shouldn't make you want to lick your lips

    neither dry out ur lips or make u want to lick them


    also dnt apply LOADS because then ur lips will get too used to it and will dry out quicker.
    lip balm,brush your lips after you brush your teeth
    blistex is awesome
    Why don't you try lip balm when you go outside your house...This will help you cure the crack lips you have... Try the nivea brand of lip balm...I actually use this everyday when going out...Then when your at home, you can use petroleum jelly after bath and before bedtime...this will help to change the dead skin in the lips...

    chapstick?
    vaseline and let it be on over night
    I've tried everything - until one day I saw my sister's best friend do the weirdest thing. She brushed her lips with her toothbrush. I asked her WTF she was doing and she told me that that got rid of her chapped lips. And guess what? It worked for me. I don't use chap stick anymore - unless I want my lips to shine.


    Hope this works for you - just don't brush your lips till they're sore.
    Smear vasaline on your lips before bed and repeat every night until chapped lips are gone. Make sure you take some to school/work to reapply every hour or so.
    Firstly, wet a toothbrush with soft bristles and brush on yr lips gently. Thereafter, apply lip balm (i recommend Vaseline's Advanced Therapy).





    Before you sleep, apply the lip balm too, espcially if you are sleeping in an air-conditoned room. Drink lotsa water during the day, as chapped lips could be due to dehydration or even smoking! It could also mean that your immune system is very heaty, try taking some cooling food/tea, like crysanthemum tea.
    Burt's Bees
    Hydration. Drink lots of water. If you continually get chapped lips you are probably dehydrated.
    Vaseline always seems to work best for me....
    the only thing that worked for me was to use the Blistex ointment regularly.
    uhhh chapstick
    Get the chapstick brand medicated chapstick. It works really well, even on cracked/ extremely dry lips.
    drink alot of water, put on chapstick any chance u get, and once u did that add some lip gloss for moisture.
    blistex medicated works for me.
    The best lipbalm ever is prescriptives lip specialist. I searched for years for the perfect one. Plus, lots of water and cut down on salt. My lips get dry when I eat salty foods.
    DId you try Carmex? It comes in a little white glass pot with a yellow lid. The drugstores carry it. It should be near the chapstick. This stuff works better than the ';sticks.';
    Chapstick. But, MAC cosmetics is great!
    Chapstick or vasoline. If this doesn't work see your Dr.
    If you have tried chapstick and lots of other products,it's probaly that you are dehydrated or been in the sun to long and also can be caused by being in exposed to to much wind which carries lots of bacteria,I would say the best thing to do is drink a lot more water and try keep out of some of these other weather patters that can occur untill fully healed.
    try pure Vitamin E oil.
    Use prescription chap stick from your doctor
    put on lipgloss or chapstick duh
    continually use your tongue :). but seriously use chapstick there are chapsticks for extreme chapped lips so look for them.
    Use straight up petroleum jelly (Vaseline) and apply it frequently. Keep yourself well-hydrated too - drink a lot of water.

    How to get rid of chapped lips fast???????

    Vaseline, or even carmex or blistex. Vaseline and carmex (which is like a chapstick sort of), doesn't have any flavor to it, so if you taste it, it'll be nasty. It WORKS, though. Especially Vaseline, it keeps them soft for a long time after you put it on. Blistex tends to have flavored kinds available tooHow to get rid of chapped lips fast???????
    SOFT LIPS FOR GIRLS OR FOR GUYS YOU CAN STILL USE IT JUST DONT LET PEOPLE C U I GUESS AND IF NOT THEN USE BLISTEX ROLL ON MEDICATED AND THAT WILL HELP GET RID OF THEN IN A HOUR BASICALLY. MEDICATED MAY BURN A LITTLE WELL MORE LIKE TINGLE AT FIRST AND IT WILL FEEL WEIRD COOL AND SOOTHING AT THE SAME TIME LOL. SO YA THATS MY SUGGESTIONS AND REAPLY REGULARLY AND DON T LICK THEM!

    Try Carmex.

    You've probably heard this before. Drink lots of water and keep yourself very well-hydrated in addition to using a moisturizing lip balm.

    I find vaseline's the best (you can get it in tiny little tubs). It just looks like clear lip gloss when you put it on.

    My lips are red and swollen. They burn constantly and I have to constantly put blistex on every half an hour or else they start to bleed and crack. There is also a clear liquid that secretes out of my lips. I am miserable, how can I help my lips heal?I have had extremely chapped lips for two weeks and Ive never had this problem before, when will they heal?
    i belive you should go to the doctor and get it checked out then ask a question on here about your chapped lips.I have had extremely chapped lips for two weeks and Ive never had this problem before, when will they heal?
    use antibactirial ointment on them at night, and during the day try and use as little as possible of the walgreens brand medicated cold sore cream. it's in a yellow tube with a red cap it looks like carmax and it tastes and smells like crap!. but It works great!





    P.S. your getting that clear liquid because it's infected.
    gey some vitamin b tablets from any supermartket or pharmacy and this will help them heal....i dont eat very well so i get chapped lips and i take those and they heal straight away

    How to treat severely chapped lips?

    Hey guys. I've had chapped lips for about two years now and have tried about everything to treat them. About a year ago, a red line formed under my lower lip because they were so dry. When I was little blistex used to work really well, but now it seems useless. I know everyone says that it is supposed to work...but it doesn't seem to do the trick for me. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks.How to treat severely chapped lips?
    the most classic lip remedy is probably vaseline petroleum jelly. also, to get rid of the dead skin, try the CO/Bigelow lip buffer, which has really moisturizing oils and exfoliates at the same time. Try to use lip balm regularly, and if your lips are that dry, try one with SPF, to protect you from the sun. Avoid licking your lips, which will just make them drier. Good luck!How to treat severely chapped lips?
    Buy a thing of vasaline and apply on about 2 or 3 times a day. It really works and my brother and sister lips aren't chapped anymore!! Good Luck! I know chapped lips are a pain. :)
    Burts beeswax, and vaseline if it gets too intense go to a dermatologist or something.





    Good luck! : )

  • How do I get rid of chapped lips?

    I used petroleum jelly, shea butter, cocoa butter, carmex, blistex, and tea tree oil but nothing works. I had chapped lips since the day I was born.How do I get rid of chapped lips?
    blistex is my favorite! just keep reapplying it all day long! drink water and take vitamins. my lips get chapped worse if i'm dehydratedHow do I get rid of chapped lips?
    do you drink enough water daily? if you don't, that's probably the problem. i am surprised petroleum jelly didn't work for you, it always works for my chapped lips. try putting a lot (and I mean A LOT) of petroleum jelly on your lips right before you sleep, that always works for me. your lips might seem thicker in the morning but that's just the healing process.
    My lips get really chapped every once in a while and here's what I do to help heal them. I use Chap Stick Overnight lip treatment at night. I use Chap Stick Moisturizer brand during the day. They really work for me. They also contain aloe vera, vitamin e, and have sunscreen. In the morning I usually exfoliate my lips to remove the dead skin cells with a sugar based exfoliator like St. Ives Sugar Scrub. Then I add the chap stick. If you keep at it they should heal in about 2 to 3 days. Then continue to prevent the problem. Good luck.
    There are things that cause chapped lips but unusual you've always have that problem. Do you live in a dry windy area? If so that must have a lot to do with it. Be sure to drink 3 quarts of water a day, the clean filtered kind. If you have too much salt or acid in your system, that might help cause the problem too. Are you addicted to salty foods? Use lip balm is all I know of besides this. I think that's the best because it was made especially for this problem.
    Since the day you were born???....harsh. When I've had the worst chapped lips ever original medicated Blistex in the squeeze tube supplies ';instant'; relief. No other product even comes close. I don;t know how it does it...but it works instantly. Don't get the yellow paste can ...get the white oringinal squeeze tube....it's a god send...beleive me.
    drink plenty of fluids especially water, fruit juices, coconut.


    apply butter on your lips before going to bed and early in the morning.





    If you had chapped lips from birth then apply coconut oil instead of butter.


    coconut oil has healing properties.
    This may seem weird but i do this all the time......


    get some water and salt and mix then together, then get a face towel and dip it in the mixture, then scrub the dead skin off.
    try this:





    1. apply lip balm


    2. take a clean toothbrush and brush your lips


    3. wash your lips


    4. reapply lip balm





    do this every day
    drink water and use oil on your lips only! or chap stick or neosporin.

    How to get rid of constant chapped lips?

    I constantly get chapped lips, and I use chapstick all the time and I know that makes it worst since your lips will always get chapped without using it. But the chapness never seems to go away, and I like to use foundation on my lips to make them lighter since they're so red -_- And sometimes the foundation gets int he cracks of my lips and pisses me off cause it looks dumb. help!?How to get rid of constant chapped lips?
    Vaseline or blistex works for me.





    Blistex has a tingy feeling. Like its being rehydrated. Btw start drinking water because chapped lips is a sign of dehydration.How to get rid of constant chapped lips?
    Don't ever put Vaseline anywhere on your body.





    Mineral Oil, Paraffin %26amp; Petrolatum 鈥?Petroleum products coat the skin like plastic, clogging pores and creating a build-up of toxins, which in turn accumulate and can lead to dermatological issues, like slowing cellular development, which can cause you to show earlier signs of aging, and vitamin deficiency.

    Burt's Bee's and Kiss My Face brands have great Lip Balms that have no harmful chemicals in them. Before you apply the balm, use a toothbrush and warm water to exfoliate the dry skin off your lips.





    Hope this helps!! Good Luck!!!
    Same here, I am addicted to carmax! Get a medicated lip balm, carmax burts bees, blistex, and try and cut down on how much you put it on. Try and cut back eventually you won't need it that often. And drink lots of water! Hyrdrates your lips.
    Look out don't get saliva on them. They should never get wet, as wetness or saliva from licking them give the chaps
    use vaseline or bees wax lip balm

    How do you get rid of chapped lips?

    okay so i always have chapped lips!


    i use chapstick alot! have tried vasoline!


    and im drinking more water!


    why are my lips still chapped?


    also when my lips you know kind of scab up i pick it off cause it makes my skin on my lips smoother. cause onece you pick the peeling skin its smooth underneath! bet then it just gets chapped again! any suggestions?How do you get rid of chapped lips?
    Don't pick the skin off your lip unless it's like a big piece hanging off. It just makes it worse.





    Try using a moisturizing chap stick because it keeps your lips moisturized. Use it as often as you feel you need to.





    Avoid situations where you are out in the cold as lower temperatures make it worse.





    DO NOT lick them if they feel dry. Your saliva has acid in it that will make your lips chap more. Whenever you feel like licking them, put chap stick on them.





    If none of this works, you may want to talk to a doctor or dentist.How do you get rid of chapped lips?
    alright I used to have chapped lips nonstop I tried eveerything like you, the chapstick was useless, then i tried vaseline it worked well but stopped being very effective, here's what you need to do.





    Your body is becoming dependant on vaseline and other chemicals to stay moist.





    go a month and a half without using ANYTHING on your lips


    it will be hard and your lips will hurt sometimes but trust me it will be worth it





    After that limit your use of chapstick to 2 times a week. if you decide to use Vaseline instead of chapstick only allow yourself to use it once a week.





    That should solve your issue, it solved mine.
    Ah, perpetually chapped lips. Quite the frustrating ailment indeed. I one time saw this short film by Douglas Buck wherein a woman took a scouring pad to her mouth, viciously rubbing it back and forth for about 3 minutes until she had completely destroyed the skin-producing cells in her lips-- this may be a bit painful to do, but science, tried and true, suggests that you will no longer have to deal with the issue of chapped lips afterwards.
    i tried vaseline. it didnt work. i know u said you used chapstick alot but what do you consider alot? my lips have been dry lately and i use chapstick and keep it in my pocket and put it on every 45 min to an hour. soemtimes i out it on cuz my lips get are dryat the moment. now they ar moist without me having to put it on constantly. i only have to put it on every other day or even 4 days and they still dotn get dry.
    after you get out of the shower (like immediately), rub your lips with the towel to get all the dead, chapped skin off.





    then instead of chapstick, use palmers cocoa butter swivel stick.


    use it tons during the day. you can never use too much.





    then before you go to bed, thats when you can put some vaseline or aquaphor on them.





    oh and another thing.. dont lick them! it drys them out in the long run. just have that cocoa butter stick on you at all times lol





    this is what i do and it fixed the problem :]





    g.luck!
    I've heard of people getting addicted to chapstick. If you use it too much your lips stop making their own moisture and you become dependent on the chapstick. That could be a myth tho I'm not a doctor.


    If your lips are chapped ALL the time maybe you should see a doctor. It could be a sign of a medical condition or illness.
    you need:


    -toothbrush


    -vaseline





    make sure you dont have anything on your lips,





    then brush your lips like you would your teeth but be very gentle cuz


    afterwords you'll feel numb.





    do this preferably once a week.


    i've tried it and i've never had such smooth lips b4 :)
    it could be a lack of nutrients b/c pregnant women tend to have extra chapped lips b/c their baby takes all the nutrition to keep the skin on ur lips healthy and smooth so u might wanna pick up some vitamins on the way home one day and ur lips should be just fine
    i recommend when you pick off your stabs to put chapped stick on it right away and at night right when you go to bed, and i mean a lot on since they're so chapped.


    try different chap stick products, maybe that one just doesn't work for you.
    while youre in the shower take a washcloth and rub your lips and most of that dead skin should come off. and when you get out put some like burts bees on it. ive always uses that but lately ive been using this aquafina stuff thats really good.
    well you have to stop picking at it first, thats why its getting chap, try using carmex, and aplyin it to your lips. and leaving it there with out rubbin it in.and dont lick your lips thats the worst thing you can do
    1. try not to lick your lips


    2. use a lip balm better than chapstick (burts bees, vasoline..)


    3. put A%26amp;D ointment on your lips before bed.


    if none of this works


    4. put a Humidifier in your room.
    the more you pick or lick your lips the more chapped they get. that may be why they aren't being hydrated. Other than that, maybe drinking juice like cranberry juice could help. it did for me.
    If the scab is a cold sore don't do that but just leave it be, put on chap stick and don't lick your lips.
    dont pick off the scabs. wear chapstick alll the time and drink plenty of water and eat lots of vitamins and furits
    Ive heard of this great new product called chapstick. =_=
    Try a good moisturizing chap stick
    Try not 2 touch your lips. Maybe 2 much citrus??
    try coconut oil it works
    wear chapstick 24/7
    Vaseline works pretty well. I also like blistek.
