Use a finer liner. Apply lip liner around the edges of your lips. Then apply lipstick, blot it and apply another layer if you need to. In winter, cold, dry air can parch your lips, and sunlight reflected off snow can burn them. It's a good idea to apply the balm before you go outside and also to wear it overnight, Dr. Romano advises.
Winter is a bear on naked lips.
But most people get chapped lips mainly because they lick them. It's an unconscious habit. If licking is a hard habit to break, so is biting your lips. That's another habit that chaps them, says Dr. Bihova. Even if you don't do much more than just become aware of the habit, you can apply lip balm more frequently.
