Anyone have a Cure for Extremely Dry/Cracked Lips?

Still here, still trudging along slowly. Have not lost any weight lately, thinking I may have gained a pound or 2. But for right now I am just trying to get my juju/motivation back. The eating has never been a problem to get into check but the exercise is a whole other monster. With my honey now working and riding his bike 2 and from work and having a physically demanding job I feel like I need to step up my game and get going. Before I know it he will surpass me and I will be like whoa what happened LOL. Life at home is still crappy my parents are getting worse and I am trying to stop the binge drinking to cope and get productive with handling my stress. All in due time, been drinking nothing but water and staying on a clean eating plan. Was going to work out this morning but got caught up in doing stuff around the house. I'm tired of making excuses I just need to get my but off this computer and do it!!
Anyone have any remedies or cures for extremely dry and cracked lips? I have tried every chap stick/balm out there and nothing helps :( they bleed and just look like crap

  1. Carmex works well for me. Eucerin cream does too. It is really similiar in texture to vasoline but it works well.

  2. I love the Mary Kay Satin Lips set. It's like $7 and it comes with a scrub and then a lip balm. Even my hubby uses it now-it's that good!! And it lasts for-evah.

  6. Gluten sensitive people often have problems with chronic chapped lips. I'm one, for example. Might want to look at that possibility if nothing else has helped.
