i do not lick my lips at and when i say at all i really mean it. i do not lick them even at eating time, i am very careful when i eat, i drink water/milk (liquids in general) with straw, i try to leave dry skin to lips as more as i can and it comes out by itself when i wash my teeth for istance.
i try to eat vegetables and fruits (two fruits per day), i eat two carrots per day ( a doctor had told me to do so i guess for vitamin a nutrition) and i take supplements of ferro as my feritin levels were 0.
regarding moisturing, i have not found any lotion/cream which is hould say wow so i am currently using propolis oil and guava butter (lip balm).
i used to use honey previous time i had ec and i had good results with moisturizing my lips but now it does not feel so good.
