Crack and redden, as lips

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chap

(Other definitions for chap that I've seen before include "Skin crack due to cold - bloke" , "Become sore; fellow" , "Cracked skin patch caused by cold" , "Raw, cracked patch on skin" , "Man, boy, fellow" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
