No chapstick: Do not use chapstick. It will make things worse. Use either something like petroleum jelly or for a less messy option, use one of the medicated lip treatments at the pharmacy. Brands like Neutrogena and Aveeno (oatmeal) are good options.

Dry lips: one that I have found works well and stays on longer is Aquaphor. My daughters love it. It comes in a tube and is much harder to just lick off. Hope that helps.
