Vaseline worx wonderz!!! It really duz! If u don't wanna carry around Vaseline, Chanel Hydracaresse Hydra-Treatment Lip Care which looks like a lipstick also works wonderz! It goes on sheer (no color). I find that it's a terrific primer for ur lips BEFORE u apply lipstick cuz it makes ur lips super soft so that ur lipstick glides on ultra smooth and flawless without da ugly dryness & parchy feeling!
