If you\u2019re wondering <\/em><em>how to get rid of chapped lips<\/em><em>, experts break down the answer (and include their favorite <\/em><em>DIY lip mask<\/em><em> and scrub recipes).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve ever struggled with severely chapped lips, you\u2019re well aware of what a burden it can be. Many people assume that chapped lips are simply a bit dry, but in reality, they can be cracked, chafed, severely dehydrated, and visibly inflamed. No matter the symptoms, one thing\u2019s for sure: Chapped lips are the worst.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>So, how do you get rid of chapped lips? Thankfully, there are plenty of ways to heal and prevent chapped lips. But it starts with knowing what causes chapped severe lips in the first place. While you may assume it\u2019s just <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/winter-skin-care\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">cold winter weather<\/a>, there are many other factors that can cause dry, flaky lips. Read on to learn more about chapped lip causes and how to heal chapped lips.

While many people think that chapped lips are caused solely by extreme temperatures, Zalka, says that a lot more can be a play. She points out that any of the below scenarios can lead to chapped lips:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Low humidity<\/li><li>Cold temperatures&nbsp;<\/li><li>Irritating products used on lips<\/li><li>Recent dental work&nbsp;<\/li><li>Picking lips<\/li><li>Licking lips<\/li><li>Dehydration<\/li><li>Eating irritating or allergenic foods<\/li><li>Eating highly salted or spicy foods<\/li><li>Lack of natural oils\/lack of oil glands<\/li><li>Harsh cleansers&nbsp;<\/li><li>Ultraviolet exposure\/too much sun<\/li><li>Having a cold (ie: blowing nose\/mouth breathing)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p>Chapped lips might be especially prevalent during winter, but Zalka says t at any time of year. That said, there\u2019s a reason why there\u2019s a particularly high chance of experiencing chapped lips during the colder months of the year.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cLack of humidity, risks of very cold temperature, and increased risk of having a runny nose, all contribute to a much higher rate or incidence of chapped lips,\u201d she says. What&#8217;s worse: Once we have chapped lips, we are prone to licking them and picking the little bits of dry peeling skin on our lips, which far worsens the problem, Zalka adds<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-get-rid-of-chapped-lips\">How to Get Rid of Chapped Lips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"82746e\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #82746e;\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/how-to-get-rid-of-chapped-lips-lip-mask.jpg\" alt=\"how to get rid of chapped lips lip mask\" class=\"wp-image-28776 not-transparent\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Once your pout is parched, you\u2019ll have to put in overtime to revive it. \u201cChapped lips need TLC,\u201d Zalka says. \u201cOnce the lips are chapped, it is difficult for them to heal on their own\u2014they need lubrication, ASAP.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Zalka recommends reaching for healing lip balms and fragrance-free lip gloss (instead of lipstick) during the day, and reparative lip masks at night. The key is to keep your lips consistently hydrated\u2014keep products nearby at all times so you can re-apply throughout the day.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Additionally, when lips are chapped, Zalka says to avoid salty foods, licking and picking at your lips, and lip-plumping cosmetics, all of which can exacerbate the discomfort. The good news? Keeping your lips ultra-hydrated with rich balms and lip masks will naturally make your lips look bigger and more luscious. That\u2019s a win-win if you ask us.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>But how long do chapped lips take to heal? Unfortunately, there isn\u2019t a way to get rid of chapped lips in five minutes or get rid of chapped lips overnight. (Though applying heavy-duty lip balms and lip masks will help.) If you stick to the recommended hydration routine above, you\u2019ll likely see a full recovery in two to three weeks, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aad.org\/public\/everyday-care\/skin-care-basics\/dry\/heal-dry-chapped-lips#:~:text=Most%20of%20the%20time%2C%20the,lips%20feel%20dry%20and%20uncomfortable.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">American Academy of Dermatology (AAD).<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-prevent-chapped-lips\">How to Prevent Chapped Lips<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Since it\u2019s fairly easy to come down with a case of dry, flaky lips, it\u2019s worthwhile to learn how to prevent chapped lips. First and foremost, Zalka says to always keep your pout lubricated with products that retain the lips\u2019 natural oils.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201c<\/strong>While many choose to avoid petroleum-based products like Vaseline and Aquaphor, these tend to be some of the best choices for chapped lips, as they are gentle, soothing, and occlusive,\u201d she shares. Occlusive products contain oils or petroleum, which lock in moisture and prevent natural oils from escaping. Word to the wise: Keep these products focused on your lips\u2014especially if you\u2019re acne-prone. \u201cOcclusive\u00a0 remedies may be a bad idea for the skin on your face, as this characteristic may cause pimples from clogged pores, but it is ideal for lip skin,\u201d Zalka explains\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to keep your lips protected from the sun as well (even in the winter). Pick up a lip balm that has an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/does-layering-spf-work\/\">SPF<\/a> of 30 or more in it, and make sure you apply it regularly. Sun damage can burn dry, chapped lips, which could trigger cold sores, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aad.org\/public\/everyday-care\/skin-care-basics\/dry\/heal-dry-chapped-lips\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">AAD<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Another pro tip? Make sure you\u2019re drinking enough water. Chapped lips are dry lips, so make sure you\u2019re staying hydrated throughout the day. Want to give your system an extra boost?

Not only will they help heal your chapped lips, but you can also make them in the comfort of your own home. She shares her go-to hydrating balm and gently-exfoliating reparative lip scrub, below.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lavender-pomegranate-lip-balm\">Lavender Pomegranate Lip Balm<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Made with shea butter, coconut oil, beeswax, pomegranate oil, and lavender essential oil, Gerber says that this balm not only provides intense healing but locks in moisture, too.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>1 tablespoon shea butter&nbsp;<\/li><li>1 tablespoon coconut oil&nbsp;<\/li><li>1 tablespoon beeswax&nbsp;<\/li><li>1 tablespoon pomegranate oil&nbsp;<\/li><li>14 drops lavender essential oil (optional)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Tools<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Measuring spoon<\/li><li>Heat-safe glass bowl<\/li><li>Saucepan<\/li><li>Pipette<\/li><li>Spoon<\/li><li>2-ounce lip balm tin<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Put shea butter, beeswax, and coconut oil in a heat-safe bowl.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Boil two inches of water in a saucepan and place the bowl in the pan to perform a heat bath.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Warm the mixture over low heat until the ingredients melt together.<\/li><li>Wait for the mixture to cool slightly before adding the pomegranate oil and lavender essential oil.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Stir with a spoon.<\/li><li>Pour the mixture into the lip balm tin.

Gerber says that this exfoliating lip scrub will gently remove the dead skin so your lip mask and lip balms can really sink in. That\u2019s because it\u2019s made with honey, which is known for its reparative moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>1 tablespoon sugar<\/li><li>1 tablespoon coconut oil<\/li><li>Honey<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Tools<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Measuring spoon<\/li><li>Small bowl<\/li><li>Spoon<\/li><li>Knife<\/li><li>1-ounce lidded jar<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Mix the sugar and coconut oil into a paste in a small bowl.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Add a few drops of honey and mix it together.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Store the mixture in the lidded jar.<\/li><li>Apply with your finger tip, massage between lips for a minute or two, and rinse with warm water.
