Dry cracking lips

[CortisolSpike67]

What causes it and is there any way to fix the cause not just symptoms?

I know obviously lips get dry when the weather is dry and cold but can you make your body more resistant to that?

drink more and put on lip balm

[itsoverneo]

literally just drink a lot of water exfoliate and anything to hydrate it should do

Does sodium and caffiene make it worse

 

[trueteentriad]

u can use beef tallow or coconut oil, both quite the same. I do beef tallow as skin moisturizer and coconut oil on my lips

How do they work?

i had the same shit and its actually because i touched my lips to often with my tongue.
you know how you just lick your lips when theyre dry? dont do it, and they will regenerate so much faster for some reason.
worked for me

I also noticed this, I also notice the skin becomes soft and almost gel like when in the healing process, so maybe licking your lips is licking off some type of protective layer needed for healing or smth
