Chapped, dry or cracked lips are a common problem. Unlike the other parts of the skin, lips do not produce natural oils needed to protect against cold winds and low humidity. As such, the lips get dry, cracked or chapped. Some of the symptoms for dry or chapped lips are bleeding, lips that look dried, red and rough, loss of moisture from the lips, slight pain, sensitivity of lips, frequent licking of the lips and tenderness of lips. Over exposure to the sun or cold and windy conditions, infections, allergies to cosmetic products, drugs, dehydration, frequent use of chemicals or soaps are some of the causes for the dryness to occur. However, this can be solved by retreating to the natural ways. Know more how to treat dry chapped lips using home remedies.
