A member asked:
I have severely chapped lips how can i heal them, i've tried, all chapsticks, vaseline, a&d... what can i do?

Possible allergy: Either you lick your lips a lot, or you are allergic to one of the ingredients in the lip balms. I would see a dermatologist for patch testing, to see if they can find out what you are allergic to
