hindi ba parang ganun yung mga sugat sa balat? pag gumagaling, nagkakaron ng "langib", yung dark..

First off, stop the calamansi. You're making things worse.

Gently brush your lips vertically using a toothbrush to help flake off dead skin. Then apply a lip balm. Do this regularly. Also, always wear a lip balm (something with a sunscreen would be good) to protect your lips from drying even if you're at home.

Drink a lot of water to stop the dryness of your lips.

I was also wondering about this. I've read in some websites and some recommend a mixture of almond oil, glycerine, honey with rose water or glycerine, castor oil and lemon juice or almond and coconut oil and leave it on during the night. But I'm pretty skeptical about these. :hmm:

Is there a way to naturally-pucker-pink again?

Sakura: If you mean the border of your lips are darker, that's normal for everybody.

enchiladas: You can also do what I told benetton: just brush your lips using vertical strokes when you're brushing your teeth and apply a lip balm afterwards. It's effective.
