7. Vitamin Deficiencies

People deficient in vitamins such as B2 and riboflavin can develop dry lips. These nutrients help maintain proper cellular function, and swollen, cracked lips can be an early sign of deficiency. Lacing vitamin B9 or folic acid can cause anemia, one symptom of which is cracked lips, particularly in the corners of the mouth.
