Is there a number one doctor-recommended solution for chapped lips?

Chapped lips: Chapped lips? Hydrate well- water is best. You can apply lip balms with beeswax base or oil base creams. Remember that lips require solar protection just like your skin – apply & reapply balms or creams with a minimum spf of 15. Going skiing ?- protect from sun & windburn by covering with a scarf or better yet, a ski / snowboard face mask with visor.

Chapped Lips: Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol, coffee and sodas. Do not use facial astringent on the lips .Do not wet your lips with saliva but do apply a brand name lip balm on a regular basis until the irritation subsides.
