Are your lips always dry and peeling? Are you looking for ways to get rid of chapped lips with ease? Having chapped lips can be uncomfortable, especially during winter, I can feel my lips needs attention. It gets obvious when I apply my lip gloss; cracked lines which is embarrassing. The next thing I do is apply lip balm, wipe with damp tissue or cloth to get rid of the rough layer and reapply my lip gloss.
