I use a special conditioning lipbalm since I heard that regular ones actually dry you'r lips when you apply it often. The one i'm using atm has cokunut oil in it and is really great for my lips. I only apply it once every day of even less.
Under my regular evening rutine of cleansing and moisturizing my skin I smear some cream on my lips and rub them with an old toothbrust thats not too hard, to get all the old skincells off and get them proper moisturized, it also helps on volumeHope this helps
thank you sooooo much!
Some really good lip balms I use overnight are:
MAC Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15 "Petting Pink"
Smith Rosebud Salve
I agree with Rikwe, try scrubbing your lips with an old toothbrush (like a little kid toothbrush) and make sure you apply a lip balm right after exfoliating your lips, or else your lips will be even more dry.
TalkinMakeup on Youtube has a video on exfoliating your lips. Here' s a link to her channel:

Have you tried Blistex?
In my opinion that's the only lip care product, which helps when you have dry lips...
I actually use a home remedy my mom showed me.
mix some extra fine granulated sugar and mix with a bit of honey to the consistency that you prefer. scrub on your lips to smooth and then just wipe off the sugar.
if you do that at night, your lips heal while you sleep.
I do it in the morning sometimes and throughout the day I keep Caudalie's lip conditioner in my pocket for daytime moisture.

To me there is only one LIP BALM-HERO and it is the Shu Uemura Lip Balm: it teaches your skin how to hydrate it self.
There is zero lip prepping needed-even coat your lips and treat it as a mask on your lips.
ask them to put it on your lips at the counter and walk around for ten minutes: that is proof that this goddess product is a must have.
Yes to Carrots has a very good hydrating lip conditioner that I use! It goes on really easily and smells nice too. Don't apply lip balm too much, as it is true that it dries out your lips if you use to too much!
You need to apply lip balm before sleeping and before applying your lipstick. I have the same problem with yours because the weather in the Philippines is changing all the time. I use the boo-boo-balm of VMV. It's dermatologically tested, safe for babies and hypoallergenic. I can also apply it to my other skin problems.
use any lip blame and lip oil for dry lips![]()

OK, If you want some shimmer to it, add SoftLips or Chapstick, and then add glitter/ lip gloss/ shiny pigments, then blend! Have fun shimmering!
go to dreamkosmetics.com and look for their vitamin e stick use that at least 3 times a day and don't lick your lips and it will help you plus there is a sun block in it to protect your lips. plus the lip gloss quads are so good!!!!
Make sure that what ever you use dosen't contain mineral oil,paraffinum liquidum or lanolin. Those ingredients help dry out your lips.
Here re more home remedies for dry lips:
Vitamin A rich diet
Application of petroleum jelly
Vitamin E oil and the gel from aloe vera leaves
avoid licking and biting the lips
Drink plenty water
You can try petroleum jelly and toothbrush. Scrub it lightly with a brush and get rid of the chapped lips.
