-Based my personal experience (always works!)-
Really, all you need to do to get rid of all those dead skin cells, is to just scrub your lips with you fingers after you get out of the shower.
That's it!
Use no product, you won't be needing it. Those dried skin should come right off because your lips should be so intensely moisturised and softened by the steam in your shower.
Sometimes scrubbing lips with your bare fingers can be quite difficult...and slow. If this happens, try wrapping your finger with tissue first and then scrub your lips--this will really make the process more efficient and much faster.
Don't rub too hard just incase you might accidentally pull some skin off, that might hurt :P
Otherwise, it should be painless.

It's fast, easy, free and delivers instant result!
I must say, I'm not sure if this would work if your shower only lasts for about 3 minutes...I think it's best to be in the shower for at least 5 minutes (this does not mean the water needs to be running for 5 minutes straight, if you don't want to; just stay in your warm shower for at least 5 minutes) so that your lips would really soften up and it'll be so much easier and faster for you to rub those dried skin off.
Once you are done I suggest you apply on lip balm (it's better for it to be flavourless and colourless) or the good old vaseline to moisturise your fully exfoliated lips.
Give it a try!
