Help for Chapped Lips

Filed in archive Latin Culture on April 2, 2008

In the fall and winter, it's the cold weather that gets you. And in the spring and summer, it's the outdoor play. Continuing with the home remedies, there are a few fixes I've heard of for chapped lips.

* Put honey on them.
* Smooth olive oil over them.
* Use Vaseline on them.
* Try hydrocortisone-chapped lips are a wound of sorts.
* Drink a lot of water-chapped lips are a dehydration problem.
* Rub a dab of avocado on them.
* Put Vicks Vapor Rub on them.
* Cut a grape in half and rub your lips with it.
* And of course, if you have lip balm or lipstick use it.

Now I haven't personally tried the vapor rub or the grape. So if you try it and it works well for you, let us know.
