      Coconut Oil

      "Oils are amazing moisturizers. Using coconut oil will leave the lips feeling extra-smooth and restore them to their original, pre-chapped state. It's a great moisturizer that you won't have to keep applying, but it also has a light fragrance that might cause allergic reactions for some. Use coconut oil on especially cold days - just apply a small amount all over the lips and avoid licking your lips!"
