What the best way to get rid of chapped lips?

...preferrably in less than a day.


[which probably is impossible.]





but you see, today when i went to school, my lips were fine. then as the day went by, my lips got dry and flaky. ew. maybe because of the weather?





then whenever i would get a drink, my lips would sting, maybe because of the acid. now my lips are even flakier, drier, and they hurt; they feel bruised and it's resulted in minor bleeding.





it's happened a few weeks ago, but it took a while for it to vanish ... i didn't treat that or anything, i just let the week go by.





what should i do? it's bugging me like crazy.What the best way to get rid of chapped lips?
Carmex works miracles.What the best way to get rid of chapped lips?
blistex, carmex they are medicated and you can use them every two minutes if you need them.
I know what you mean, I have chapped lips right now and I found this page to help ME get rid of them but I just had to contribute. I would most definately go with either olive oil or vaseline. I also like the hydrogen peroxide and antibiotic remedy. Who can turn down grandma right? I am really wanting to say one more thing...EAR WAX!?! I am not really going to try that one any time soon...





BYEBYE
carmex is better than chapstick in my exp., though it is a symptom of dehydration.
First of all, the dryness is probably making you lick your lips more often. Don't! It will make it worse.


My grandmother had a good remedy for chapped lips that works in about 1-2 days unless they're really, really bad, but it's kind of painful. Dip a cotton ball in hydrogen peroxide and apply it to the outside surface of the lips. It will sting! (a lot). Then apply a light coat of either regular antibiotic ointment or the new ones that are made for lips. The peroxide kills the germs that get into the cracks in the dry skin and the petroleum base in the ointment (along with the obvious antibiotic effect) will seal in all your natural moisture.
most of the chapped lip meds have vit. e in them. if those dont work try vasoline
Put vaseline on your lips before you go to bed. If you don't have any on hand right now, do you have chapstick or other lip balm? If you don't have those either, try vitamin e oil or olive oil. In any case, stop licking/wetting your lips! (It's a bad habit I have, too). That's the reason why they are so dry.
chap stick for the moment..but if you drink alot of water and stay hydrated daily you won't have that problem
Put a little bit of vaseline on a clean tooth brush and brush your lips every single night before bed. Then slather on the vaseline at bedtime.
Good old Vaseline at night before you go to bed. And don't lick your lips in the cold weather while outside. Use some of the products like Carmex or Chapstick.
Get a little tub of vaseline and use it often!!
Dont lick your lips and they wont get chapped, I never have chapped lips, I drink from a straw and never lick my lips.
drink lots of water and don't lick them, it makes it worse.
yegetable oil works wonders just put some on a little piece of napkin and spread it around!!
Put Vaseline (petroleum jelly) on your lips! I guarantee you that you will see a difference. Put it on after you brush your teeth, after you eat, whenever its dry, and before bed. :)
I work outside in the elements and I am never far from chapstick and water. My lips are silky smooth!





P.S. Stay away from Carmex and Blistex, they may give you immediate relief but ultimately make the problem worse, IME.
Well u should use Carmax it's good for dry chapped lips and if that dont work u can use Petroleum Jelly it moisturizes to heal dryness of your lips that's something i would use if Carmax dont work!!!
lime
i use my face moisturizer. it really helps. or i use Vaseline.
buy some Chapstick. It comes in various flavors and gets rid of chapped lips pronto!
Use Vasaline. I have really chapped lips and it bleeds just like yours. I use Vasaline and it works for me. Hope it works for you.
Well i would go get blistex intense moisture chap stick. Lip balm works really well to. i have this stuff called smiths strawberry rosebud lip balm and it is amazing. you can only get it from select stores like sephora etc. but if you need a quick fix go get some normal blistex from kroger. dont use vasaline it turns your lips a weird purple color and makes them peel more. Another thing you can use is put olive oil on your lips dont touch them or anything and keep doing this repeatedly and RIGHT before you lay down in bed take your chap stick put it on and try to sleep on your back so that the chapstick doesnt rub off. I promise by tomorrow your lips will look fantastic. i get complements on my lips all the time.
paw paw ointment or lip treatments, to prevent it from getting worse do not lick them your salive will be tempory relief but will result in it getting worse....just go to your chemist (drug store) and ask them for something to treat it....good luck
use burts bees during the day and at night use vaseline make sure you drink alot of water that should do the trick
try sugar and a little bit of water, the texture of the surgar kind of ';scrubs'; the dead skin off, once your done with that, then follow up with chapstic, preferably with mosture.
Breath through your nose, not your mouth.





Don't lick your lips. Nothing chaps lips worse than licking them.





Find a medicated lip balm and use it regularly - several times a day, while your lips are badly chapped. Once your lips get better, use something like plain old chapstick every day, to keep your lips protected.





Cool weather and windy weather will chap lips. If you have air conditioners or fans running often in your home, that can also contribute to chapped lips.
put noxzema on your lips then wash it off after a lil bit it helps for a lil while or if you rather mary kay sells some stuff that get rids of the dead skin on your lips i forget the name of it though
Well, I think the first thing you should do is try to put on Chapstick. Chapsticks normally help the flakiness and the dryness of the lips go away. Try that for a day or so, but if the problem still occurs, I suggest going to a nearby pharacist and asking for help :D Good luck!!!~
Apply chap stick.
Blistex is the best lip medication there is. It's just like chapstick, only it comes in a tube like lip gloss. Also, drink lots of water. That really helps.
