Lip Care Tips

Lip care is very important especially when there is a change in season. The skin on your lips is very thin and there are no oil glands to help protect them. Even after applying lip balm regularly, the dry lips hardly cure. So you can do some home remedies to cure dry lips and soften your lips.

• Avoid exposing your lips to hot water when you take a shower.
• Keep yourself hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
• Avoid lipstick as much as you can as certain brands can dry your lips out, causing them to eventually crack.
• Avoid licking your lips. Licking your lips will actually dry it out and not moisturize it
• Keep lips well lubricated at all times and this means at bedtime as well.
• Always apply a natural lip balm to protect your lips. Applying it before applying lipsticks will prevent your lips from dryness and exfoliation.

Home Remedies to Soften Lips:

• Take a drop of honey and gently massage on your dry lips. Honey moisturizes and softens your lips and prevents it from cracking.
• Take ½ grated apples and 1 tsp of unsalted butted. Mix and spread on your lips for 15-20 minutes. Rinse with cool water.
• Take 1 tsp of brown sugar and 1 tsp of olive oil. Mix and massage into lips for about 30 seconds, rinse and finish with lip balm.
