The skin on our lips is much more delicate than the skin on the rest of our face. It’s much more susceptible to harsh winds and cold days. Often, we end up with cracking and chapping lips! So here you are searching for the answers. You can follow some simple steps to care for your lips.

Do you love wearing lipstick but even the most vibrant colors appear unflattering, dull, or flakey on your lips? Especially in the winter, when the cold makes your lips dry, and they crack or peal.

Fortunately, there are a few simple steps you can take to keep your lips smooth and soft. A lip care routine will keep your lips soft, supple and full of moisture.

First Exfoliate Your Lips

Chapped lips have a surface of dry skin that prevents the healing components in lip balms from reaching the proper area. Exfoliating the lips will help remove dry, flaking skin as well as restore the smoothness and softness that you really want.

To gently exfoliate away the dry skin, use lip scrubs containing sugar. When buying a lip scrub, search for organic ingredients that will soothe and moisturize your lips.

Use a lip conditioner before you go to bed. Your lips do not produce oil or a protective barrier on their own. This is where lip conditioners come in handy. Apply it regularly: several times during the day and before going to bed. A great lip conditioner will seal in moisture and protect your lips from elements like the harsh wind or cold. Look for a lip conditioner with soothing and moisturizing ingredients like Shea Butter, Avocado Oi, and Petrolatum.

Staying well hydrated is one of the most crucial aspects of maintaining healthy lips. Drink a lot of water throughout the day to keep your lips hydrated.

Health and beauty always come from within. That applies to hydrating the inside as well as the lips.

When your lips are dry, then it might feel natural to lick them to moisten them but that will make things worse. It feels great at the moment however, as the saliva evaporates, the lips become even drier. Saliva enzymes are just too harsh on your sensitive lips.

Chapped lips are a popular and sometimes uncomfortable problem. Some people just experience it during winter, while some others have this problem year-round.  A regular lip care routine may help keep your lips supple and soft. Choose a lip balm that has Shea Butter, Avocado Oi, and Petrolatum. Apply anytime your lips feel dry. Ensure you exfoliate dry lips either once or two times a week with sugar scrubs that include nourishing oils, and then apply a lip conditioner.
