During the winter around my mouth a black ring appears last winter it came and I was so insecure about it...around my mouth it gets dry so I lick it thinking it will help but last winter it got worse...any suggestions of what I should do?

Licking it will just dry it out more. you need a good chapstick & thick cream moisturizer.

Do you know a good chapstick and moisturizer?

I agree with Kat, Cerave is great and for Chapstick I love Carmex.

Carmex is a personal favorite! My lips get dry in winter and I started using it last year and it was amazing!

I like pure shea butter as lip balm! And Kat is right, licking will make it worse. I had a friend in elementary school who was always licking all around her lips and she had a darker ring around her lips.
Make sure you drink lots of water too, as lip balm is just used to seal in the moisture that comes from water.
