Now earlier, i posted i made a discovery, due to my lips vastly improving by the emergence of bumps, which were misplaced oil glands. This lead me to believe it was an oil imbalance/problems.
Because of the vast improvement(my top lip stopped peeling completely), i did some research on the Oil Glands and read overactive Oil Glands cause
Acne and Underactive cause Dry Skin.
Someone earlier posted this on curezone.

I'm not saying oil glands are in the lips... i know that. But i had fordyce condition where oil glands are misplaced and my lips stopped peeling. Once the bumps left, then the lips continued to peel. Blessing in disguise, because i used to refer to this as a Cheilitis Relapse and i hated having it not knowing it is a massive clue. I believe an inflammation rather ON THE INSIDE is causing the peeling of lips. That is why for some it started on the bottom lip and spread to the top.
Looking around in the first two links and on this board, EVENING PRIMROSE OIL in HIGH DOSES can reduce inflammation, restore balance thus providing moisture for the lips. I advice you to read the first two links, where Evening Primrose Oil was used to reduce the effect of Exfoliative Cheilitis by a DERMATOLOGIST. Us lip/pickers may have caused an inflammation on the inside. External products don't address this area.

This explains how and why Evening Primrose Oil will work. I believe the bumps on my lips could be classified as Acne, had the same symptoms and that week i rather had overactive Oil Glands(due to inflammation/imbalance). High doses up to 6-7 capsules are used to see an effect and there are no overdose dangers.
I've been through a whole lot of treatments but never taken Evening Primrose Oil in extreme doses.
Here is another curezone user that Evening Primrose Oil has helped.

This is the one supplement i think whatever the initial cause of Cheilitis, this can help, whether allergy or inflammation.
Borage Oil contains a higher dosage of GLA but i'll do what is proven to work.
Whatever the cause, High Doses of EPO can Help.
PART 2.
Zinc.

I was researching about inflammation and found that zinc is what prevents inflammation and protects us from it. I don't know any of your digestive health but you might not absorb Nutrients correctly, where the food you eat the nutrients aren't absorbed by the colon. It is understandable why diet and cleanses are used to improve this function. Zinc is vital in the making of GLA(found in Evening Primrose Oil), which ultimately keeps our lips normal.
The Cure?
-High Doses of Evening Primrose Oil or if you want to try Borage oil, which contains higher potency GLA. GLA will provide Oil Balance and reduce Inflammation.
-Zinc to make the body do naturally what the evening primrose oil is doing. Preventing inflammation and protecting us from inflammation.
This is guaranteed. Bless & be PATIENT!
