Lanolin is a bitchin' moisturizer like for everything—particularly your chapped lips. Haven't tried it for any other of my chapped bits but the same principle extends.

Lanolin is used to protect nursing humans and farm animals, too. It's a great lip balm.

There's a cream called Corona cream, with lanolin as the main ingredient. It's geared to veterinary rather than human use, but it's fantastic and can be bought in gigantic tubs.
