Lips have a very thin layer of skin that is delicate and has comparatively fewer oil glands compared to other parts of the body. This can cause the lips to go dry and lead to peeling lips also known as exfolative cheilitis. Try these home remedies to get your soft lips back -
- Don't lick your lips often as this will further cause the lips to get dry.
- Use a lip balm or Vaseline or a petroleum jelly on your lips.
- Preferably use a lip balm with sun protecting factor when you step out of the house. Visit a specialist if your condition does not improve.
