Chapped you mean?

1. Invest in chapstick/vaseline- UBER CHEAP
2. Exfoliate Lips, by rubbing sugar on them occasionally, OR, wet your toothbrush and brush GENTLY.

I also have problems with my cheeks they allways are red. How can I conseal them without breaking out with zits and stuff. Cause it's a real big problem with my cosplay photo's and stuff..

Thanks ahead! I hop you can help me with this thing..

Hm, Green tea is always very cooling on skin.
The Green tea rinse might help you feel a bit better, basically, you make green tea [teabag, boiling water] and leave it in the fridge to cool down. When you want to use it [providing its cool, rinse your face with warm water, then green tea.

to CONCEAL redness of skin, I would invest in green based concealer [it combats redness] BUT lucky for you, Asian cosmetics have come a long way, They now have a product called BB cream which is basically blemish balm cream, its like a foundation, but it works as a moisturiser, spot healer at well. Many plastic surgeons give it to their patients to help them cover and heal. =) There's a shitload out there [check the online cosmetic store list-stickied] but i personally use skinfood. ^^ For your skin, skinfood aloe would be great!

I have dry skin and produces almost no natural oil, nor can I sweat until I'm worked to death, so it is very hard for me to manage myself. If I do not coat myself with lotion after everytime I get wet, such as in a shower my skin dries, deteriorates and cracks. That starts boils, cuts and bleeding everywhere. The bright side? No pimples due to no oils. The worst? Its to reach my back, so it bleeds unless I take the appropriate time making sure I applied it correctly.

Have you tried, the emulsion based face washes? I know that dry skin works well with emulsion based face washes e.g: Shiseido Benefiance line.
And for body lotion, you should try Nut based lotions e.g: Brazil nut body lotion and coconut ones, because they also release natural oils which are great for dry skin. Palmer's cocoa butter for hands are also amazing. ^^
