Man I've had chapped from last year and up til now, I apply petroleum jelly everyday. It helps.

this works for me really really well. great for a quick fix or to start your lips anew so it's easily treated (i find adding balm to dry, cracked lips irritates it even more).
apply a thin layer of vaseline (or chapstick - but vaseline works better) before a shower. Don't wash it off! It should be a really warm shower. Let the warmth and steam moisturize your lips. afterwards, take a wash cloth and gently rub the vaseline off. your lips should be really smooth. while it's still a little moist, apply some balm to it to lock in the moisture. hope that helps.
