Yes, optimum water intake is necessary to maintain moisture in your lips. Again with using lip balm or Vaseline jelly or vitamin E oil would lock the moisture to prevent it from drying up. With a caution to not lick your lips. Vitamin b complex helps to maintain optimum cell growth and maintainance .
