No more spending bucks on lip balm, no more gaps in the lips and no more bleeding. You can achieve them all if only you master the techniques how to keep the bad elements at bay.

You can bring out the best lip balm from olive oil and it is a home remedy. Vegetable shortening can be effectively used for the lip balm. If you are fond of keeping Vitamin E, you just take a capsule or a tablet and prick it and take its liquid solution and apply on the chapped lips. If not this you can apt to an age old remedy petroleum jelly and it is very effective for the problem.

If the above remedies do not serve your need then you must look inside your body and this can be done by drinking adequate water daily atleast about 25ml glasses of water or more if you can. This may not prevent dryness but it will provide moisture internally. Drinking water is good for over all body mechanism.
