Will drinking water get rid of chapped lips?

My lips are severly chapped and I was told that drinking water would help get rid of the problem. I don't want to use lip balm. How much water would I need to drink a day to get rid of chapped lips over a month long period. Ounce wise.Will drinking water get rid of chapped lips?
yes because it will prevent dehydration (i dont have an ounce ratio- just drink a glass or two)- but dont lik your lips because it will evaporate and dry them out again


here's what you can do if you want

(and maybe number 7 doesnt apply to you) :)Will drinking water get rid of chapped lips?
Use lip balm dude. You are basically saying the equivalent of ';How do I keep me head warm in the winter? I don't want to use a hat.'; Report Abuse

You better believe it... After shower etc, use Vaseline (or even butter)kind balm on(in)you navel (belly button), specially before sleep. Does work like magic and as a preventive measure as well. all the best. Report Abuse

That's probably one of the dumbest questions I've ever heard. we invented chapstick for a reason. Report Abuse

In addition to drinking water, any of the antioxidant oils like Safflower oil or Grapeseed oil is great. Use it to dip bread in (you can eat lots of it and add your favorite dipping spices)or to fry some veggies in, etc. It will lubricate from the inside out. Report Abuse

I think water will help, but chapstick is what you need to stop the pain now.





and if you are in cold weather, I don't know if the extra water will help
why thehell wont u use lip balm? anyway vaseline works... and yes 8-10, 12 ounce glasses of water each and everyday will help plain water..not mixed with anything..... no sugar,sodas...soda and coffee dehydrate you and make prob worse..
It won't fix your problem anytime soon. Apply a little Vaseline to your lips It will fix you up quite quickly
Keeping your body hydrated will help, but sometimes I think the lips need a little extra after being exposed to the elements. You should drink 6 eight ounce glasses of water a day.
Drinking more water helps a little. Vaseline at night is good. Also take vitamin E capsules. I would say also empty the contents of the vitamin E capsule in a your palm and rub your lips with it. It is an oil but very good for rough skin.
Drinking water prevents chapped lips from happening because it keeps them moisturized. If you want to get rid of the chapped lips you have now, buy a medicated chapstick, preferably with beeswax or aloe vera, and apply it whenever your lips feel dry. You should apply it when your lips don't glide when you rub them together. Apply it even when you don't have chapped lips in addition to drinking 8 glasses of water per day to keep your lips smooth and supple.
a lot just use chapstick and drink extra water dont lick them too much in ounce wise no clue in liter maybe a liter and a half a day would keep the chapped lips away
you would need to drink 3 glasses a day
no i do not think so

What can u do for treating chapped lips without putting on chapped stick?

What can u do for treating chapped lips without putting on chapstick?


I'm already using a REALLY moisturize chapstick, but it only gives short term relief..What can u do for treating chapped lips without putting on chapped stick?
Some olive oil or almond oil applied over the lips before going to bed soothes and heals chapped lips.





Cocoa butter also helps. If you don't like the oily sensation on your lips when you sleep, vaseline or glycerin is a better option.What can u do for treating chapped lips without putting on chapped stick?
vaseline ?
olive oil, it works like a dream!
palmers cocoa butter lip balm, you can buy it at any drugstore, like cvs or walgreens. chapstick, i absoloutley hate! doesn't even work and the consistency of it is too thick! hard to put on lips. palmers is a bit smoother.
drink lots and lots of water. Sounds like you are dehydrated.

  • Is there any way to plump my lips at home?

    I don't think I could ever talk myself into getting a needle anywhere near my lip. Does anyone know of a remedy or anything to plump them? I'll pretty much do anything so long as it isn't harmful.Is there any way to plump my lips at home?
    There's a lip gloss called Lip Venom (available through sephora or certain department stores) that has some spicy mild irritants in it that bring more blood to your lips to temporarily plump your lips a little. Some people say it doesn't work, but I have it and attest that it DOES work. It's no miracle worker, but for a night out, it does plump your pout.





    Edit--oh yeah, I read in a magazine, if you use a tiny bit of white eyeliner or shimmer right on top of your cupid's bow (above it--not on your actual lip) it'll give the illusion of a fuller pout. It really works.





    Also, Using a nude lipliner to line your lips, and lightly coloring in the points and edges of your lips, but leaving the middle part bare (blending it all so it looks natural!), also helps. I usually just do that, and use some light gloss or lip balm over it on a daily basis instead of heavy lipstick.Is there any way to plump my lips at home?
    well lip glosses usually makes ur lips looks more plump lol.. and there is this lip gloss / blumb in bath and body works that helps ur lips look more plump :)
    try Lip Venom
    the only thing i can think of is have some one punch you in the lips.. thats it
    just have someone punch you and give u a fat lip. lol.





    j/k!!
    There are some types of lip glosses or shines that you can by that make them look fuller.


    My mom uses them and it really works!
    if you have a eye shimmer pencil or a white eyeshadow, dab a bit on a cotton bud and put the shadow o the inside of your liplike the line separating your two lips. This makes lips appear fuller, (and cuter :-P)
    As a make -up artist , here is a cheap way that will plump up your pout ... Definitely need to line your lips with a lip liner of your color choice, most prefer nude or one closest to their natural color, then fill them in with the lip liner instead of lipstick, this will make it last longer on your lips, then last put on a shimmer or clear' Lip Plumper 'glaze lip gloss. You can buy a lip plumper at Sally's Beauty Supply or Avon if you are not looking to spend a lot of money.

    How would you teach yourself to read lips?

    I have asked somthing like this before, but never really got the answers I wanted .





    Without joining a class,buying anything or hiring anyone or without other people. How would you teach yourself to read lips? How long would you practice daily?How would you teach yourself to read lips?
    It's weird staring at people's mouths - so you could try watching high-quality movies where you can see lip-voice sync and test yourself.How would you teach yourself to read lips?
    i did by watchen people talk .i hear what they say but watch there lips.then mute the tv and watch then and read after time you will learn.good luck
    LOOK AT PEOPLE FROM FAR AWAY AND TRY TO READ WHAT THEY ARE SAYING! THATS WAT I DO AND I CAN READ EM!
    well just ALWAYS look at people's lips when they're talking to you. That would work for sure.
    what kind of lips?

    Ladies what is the best lip gloss that does not leave your lips so sticky?

    Is there any good ones that I can get from Walgreens or do I have to go to a MAC counter.Ladies what is the best lip gloss that does not leave your lips so sticky?
    uhm, try lip balm. They're never sticky :) I love softlips, chaptstick, and burt's bees doesn't glide too good but smells good.Ladies what is the best lip gloss that does not leave your lips so sticky?
    I like the new CoverGirl Wetslick Fruit Spritzers. They aren't sticky and they have a yummy flavor! Revlon is good too.
    well, i use either the victoria secret stuff (sugar high's my fav) or Lancome. but if its lancome, then make sure its jelly cos smoothie is sticky.
    I love Lancome Juicy Tubes also MAC is awesome.
    lip smackers still even though it is a kid brand but who cares!!!
    Stila lip glaze is amazing! i love it in vanilla!





    http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jh鈥?/a>
    there is one from some weird store but the brand is: lip licious !
    smackers
    You should get Clinique.
    KLS (Kimmora Lee Simmons) at the baby phat counter. Its called ';Goddess Gloss'; its like 17.50 lasts forever.
    the best is by far viuctoias secret ones!!


    they have a million diff fla vors that taste delicious!!! ITS like a snack on your lip!!
    The only lip gloss that I've tried thats not sticky is the new Covergirl Wetsticks Fruit Spritzers. I swear by it! They come in tons of cute shades and smell great too. Plus you will never have to worry about having sticky lips.
    I reccomend kryolan lip gloss
    Mac hell no. Way to sticky. If you want cheap walgreens is good but I go for bobbi brown. Clear and not sticky at all or Nars. Try Macys or Marshall Fields
    I use Chapstic and Neutrogena lip gloss... I have very sensitive skin and these work well for me; they look great and are glide on smoothly and last a decent amount of time. You can get them both at Walgreen's or CVS or any supermarket.
    OMG


    I SEACHED EVERYWHERE


    best stuff ever is by blistex...silk n shine i think its called...its a grey roll on stick and the font is in purple.


    GO GET IT NOW GURLLL that stuff is amazing!! =)
    if u try some different lip glosses from wallgreens, after a while u may be able to find a not so sticky one, but i prefer Bobbi Brown lip gloss because it stays on almost all day and is not tht sticky!!! the colors are also fabulous!!! but, if u dont want to spend a lot of money, then dont go for the Bobbi Brown because it s kinda of expensive.
    google 'bees wax lip gloss'


    its all natural bee product for lips
    Yes, go to the MAC counter.


    They have what is called lip glass.


    It is awesome,it is long lasting and


    not sticky at all.
    the tubes of lip gloss at bath and body works
    Bobbi Brown is my favourite :-)
    Fashion Fair
    If you're looking for something inexpensive, try Neutrogena. Otherwise, you should try Victoria's Secret's brand. I've tried a LOT of different glosses (total addict here!) and I tend to grab these two brands the most.
    MK Signature Nourishine Lipgloss by Mary Kay.
    This is really surprising, but Bonne Bell's lipglosses have actually gotten a lot less sticky over the years. They glide on smoothly, and don't feel like candy gloss at all. MAC Lipglass is also very, very shiny, and not sticky at all, but it is at a higher price.
    American Girl I know it sounds childish but I have tried may different kinds of lip gloss and this is the best one I have found!!!!!!!!!!!!
    go to american eagle and get aerie kiss!





    or go to walgreens and get burts bees radiance!
    mac and stila are great lip glosses but they are a bit sticky. Mentha Lip shine in cinamint from bath and body works is one of my favorites it is not hardly sticky at all.
    if u have a BATH AND BODYWORKS where ever u live try BIGELOW it is the best stuff and it refreahes ur breath at the same time and if u dont have that store get it from the internet !!!!
    you can find non-sticky glosses at walgreens. The only thing is prefer the ones that are solid, not liquid. Even the inexpensive solid Bonbell lip gloss do the trick. They spread out more evenly and don't leave your lips all gooey. If you really like liquid gloss though, the best ones are at MAC and Sephora. Good luck ;)
    Revlon is good
