Green tea is also taken by mouth for Parkinson's disease, diseases of the heart and blood vessels, diabetes, low blood pressure, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), dental cavities (caries), kidney stones, and skin damage.
Another simple and natural solution for chapped lips is cucumber. 1  Rub a small slice of cucumber across your dry lips gently so that the juice is applied well over them. 2  Leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes and then wash your lips with water. 3  Do this several times a day to help your lips heal faster.
Use it just the way you would use lip balm or petroleum jelly -- smear a bit on whenever your lips feel dry, and put a little on at night for good measure. You can also combine olive oil with sugar to make a simple lip scrub. Just make a paste out of sugar and olive oil, and rub it on your lips [source: Sorgen]. The sugar will exfoliate the lips, getting rid of any dry, dead skin cells on the surface and leaving lips smoother.
