I think your eyes are dry, because my lips are as moist and sensuous as they've ever been
now that's where you're wrong motherfucker 
S-shut up!
to late i was made to lick em couldn't help it when i read the title it just happened. in a way, you licked my lips
you rascal
I'm genuinely curious why so many people have dry lips. I have never in my life needed chapstick. I'll just assume it's some combination of the modern western lifestyle.
Licking your lips dries them out. Chapstick is typically flavored/scented which encourages you to lick your lips, counterintuitively drying them out more.
Chapstick is also an occlusive rather than a moisturizer so it just keeps the moisture in rather than returning moisture to dry lips.
petroleum jelly is the way to go. my lips never get dry anymore since switching to it when chapstick made everything worse like you say 
That scares me - petroleum jelly is often packed full of carcinogens, even minor ingestion seems pretty bad.
Maybe there are good brands, but beee careful.
places chapstick in evidence bag
oh sure sure just licking your lips no smooching going on here officer... tell it to the judge
Climate is a huge role. Colder places/winters will cause the air to be much much drier. I normally don't have any issues in my current climate but up north in winter it can get bad... To the point that I get cracks sometimes in them.
I live pretty far north, but maybe it just doesn't get that dry here
been too moist where i'm at and i have luscious full lips thank you very much it's just because there's so much there sometimes
