Cucumber
Commonly known as a home remedy for puffy or swollen eye bags, cucumber is one of the natural skin care solutions worth trying. It has hydrating properties that make it a good solution for dry skin, including chapped lips. Cucumber also contains vitamins C and K, as well as potassium. These constituents help protect the skin and facilitate healing.
There are two ways to use cucumber to treat chapped lips. One is to use it in the same way it is used on the eyes. Cut a few slices and let them sit on top of the chapped lips for twenty to thirty minutes. You can only do this if you are resting or not doing anything involving locomotory movement. Do this while watching TV, reading a book, or playing games on your mobile device.
The other way of applying cucumber on chapped lips is by scrubbing it gently. Get a slice of cucumber and move it around the lips for a few minutes. Doing this facilitates the penetration of cucumber’s beneficial nutrients into the lips. It also helps in slowly removing the flaky skin on the lips.
