Dry, broken lips

2020-04-10 17:00:49
Hi I've had dry lips since childhood. Due to dry lips,I always keep licking my lips, which forms a white thin layer on them..that I peel off. It's quite frustrating and makes my lips look bad. Is there something to worry? I use lip balm- nivea.. sometimes Please suggest.
