What helps with very dry lips?

[neepsntatties]

Can't find anything that will tackle my dry, cracked lips. They look horrid.

this stuff from superdrug is ACE and only £1.27 per tin.

Thick layer of Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream before you go to bed and in the morning your lips will be lovely. I swear by it.

I use carmex

another Carmex vote

Blistex to sort it out, then regular slatherings of vaseline to prevent it.

If you spend a lot of times outdoors then the skin around the lips can get really sore and burn - and that can be really painful.

I find most over the counter stuff cant touch it. I mix nappy cream with a greasy bodycream. Once sorted I can go back to the usual lip stuff.

Blistex-the old-fashioned tube of cream not,the chapstick things.

Amazing stuff.

It's a constant staple in my make-up bag

Slather them with vaseline and then exfoliate with a toothbrush. Wipe all that off and then use either Carmex (pot) or Blistex (either blue pot or the white metal tube).

Carmex here too (in the pot, not the tube though).

Old toothbrush with a bit of sugar to exfoiliate then good old Vaseline slathered on overnight. Central heating and windy weather is a killer for lips.

another vote for chapstick medicated. i've tried lots of different ones and this works best for me, and i suffer from very dry, chapped and cracked lips.

Waitrose Baby Bottom Butter. Wonderful stuff.

Lansinoh is doing a great job although I need something I can take out and about so I will try some of the other suggestions too. Vaseline just doesn't seem to work for me for some reason.

Flexitol lip balm is excellent.

I work outside and always have very dry lips but this stuff works really well.

Carmex.

I'm a straight vaseline girl myself. Any kind of lipstick or lip gloss and the next day I can peel bits of skin off them. Only cure is failful old vaseline.

Another vote for the Blistex ointment, awesome stuff

I swear by By Terry's Baume de Rose - the 'wand' version which is really easy to apply. Has stopped my lips getting dry at all this winter. Not the cheapest option but does last ages.
