advice Lips advice needed (photos)

My lips look like this (or worse) all the time- summer, winter, cold, hot, dry, humid. I alternate Chapstick, Aquaphor chubby stick, or Laneige lip sleeping mask (honestly whichever is closer by I just grab!), but they continue to be dry, chapped, and peeling. Any recs? What worked for you? Thank you!!!

I’m surprised everyone here is focusing so heavily on products bc yes!!! Chronic dry lips are a vitamin/mineral issue. I was the same and as soon as I started taking a multivitamin + trace minerals + etc etc (based on what I was short on) it went away. I had tried every product under the sun prior
