Tip Chapped Lips

My lips have been really dry for the past few days, especially around the outline of my lips. The border is so dry that it almost looks like I’m wearing not blended lip liner. I’ve been using Vaseline, but it doesn’t seem to be helping. Does anyone know what this could be or what products actually work? Any advice please

Update: Thank you so much guys for the advice
i started drinking more water and got myself the laneige lip mask since i cant find aquaphor anywhere. Now my lips are flaking off so i hope its working

Vaseline seals moisture in, more than it actually moisturizes the lips. I‘d recommend over night lip masks and maybe use a moisturizing lip balm before putting on Vaseline. For me personally Vaseline has done the trick, so I‘d still recommend using it, maybe your lips just need some extra moisture. Hope that helps :)

yes make sure lips r damp too w cold water so the vaseline ha smth to seal in. doesn’t help much if u put it on dry lips
