Grind petals of two pink roses in a marble dish. Add 1 teaspoon of honey, 1teaspoon lime juice and 1 teaspoon of glycerine.Pour it in a glass bottle and keep it in the fridge. Apply with your fingertips. This will last you for week.

Hi lalitha,

As far as you can give rest to your lips. Wear lipstick only when you go out. Whenever you are at home leave your lips free of it. Apply olive oil and massage your lips.

Avoid using dark coloured lipsticks and use mostly light and pastel shades.
Just go through my blog, I have posted about this there

I hope this will help you.

Apply clarified butter( pure ghee) on the lips at night before going to bed. You will wake up with soft lips.

I have been wearing a lipstick for the past 12 years and they stay on lips for more than 10 hours a day.

You should use good branded lipsticks and not go for some cheap ones.

Have tonics that will purify your blood and keep a good check on your diet.

Don't chew your lips when they have cracks.

Applying rose water also helps to get rid of dark lips.
