I have a very bad habit of peeling my lips and now my upper layer of skin on my lips does not come in shape. It comes to some extent but does not fully grow to cover the lower portion of lip due to which I have to peel it of again as it looks awkward. I try keeping my lips hydrated by applying vaseline or ghee but of no use. How do I get the upper protective layer of lips back in shape?
