Kiss Dryness Goodbye!
A deficiency of fatty acids may be the reason for flaking and peeling lips. Take a tablesthingy of flaxseed oil every day. Down the oil straight or use in recipes that don't require heating.
Avoid lip balms that contain phenol and camphor, instead use those containing cocoa butter .
To hydrate your skin and lips sip hot water or decaffeinated tea. this will gently dilate your circulatory system so that the moisture can reach the tissues. It is recommended that you take one or two sips every 10 minutes or so throughout the day.
