Hello,
Use a lipbalm with sunscreen you can opt for neutrogena or body shop.
Avoid use matte finished lipsticks, use glossy instead and apply your lipbalm before applying lipstick.
Never peel the skin of your lips
As a home remedy you can use a mixture of gram flour(besan) with milk and softly scrub your lips three times in a week.Remember to apply your balm after scrubbing and dont be vigrous with the scrubbing.
Also if you smoke avoid it.
Take Care
Regards
