Lip Balm At Night

During the day, activities like eating, talking and drinking can reduce the efficacy of lip balm. Sometimes, it can feel like no matter how many times you apply, it’s rubbed off within five minutes. This is why it’s important to apply a rich, moisturizing balm at night, when it’s more likely to stay put and do it’s important work.

Stay Hydrated

It’s easier to forget to drink enough water in winter, but staying on top of your hydration is key if you want to avoid dry skin and lips. Perhaps start your day off with a cup of warm lemon water, or buy a bottle which reminds you to keep drinking – whatever works for you, make sure you’re staying hydrated.

Buy A Scarf

When it’s really cold and the wind is tearing down the streets, lifting your scarf up to cover your mouth can help protect your lips from the worst of the elements. Choose a scarf that’s big enough to cover your neck and the bottom of your face, and wrap it loosely around so you can still breathe easily.

Sunscreen, Always

Thought SPF was just for summer. No way! Sun rays are out and about throughout the year and since the skin on our lips is so delicate, make sure to give it some SPF love.

Say No to Licking and Picking

When lips are dry, our first instinct is to moisten them—usually by licking. But the enzymes in our saliva can actually have a counter effect and dry out our lips even more. Another harmful habit is picking at the skin that is flaking off. As tempting as it may be, pulling, biting, and picking can all cause even more damage. 

Lather on the Lip Balm

If your lips are dry and cracking, lip balm really is your best friend. Look for a product that contains lanolin or petroleum as these can lock in moisture and smooth out the chapped skin. It’s best to avoid anything with camphor or menthol, however, as these can leave your lips feeling painful and irritated.

Full Lips

If you have full and sensual lips, you can give up the use of a liner. Dark colors that draw attention to the lips will be great.

This lips

If you have thin lips, avoid dark-colored lipsticks, as these may only accentuate the shape. Instead, choose lipsticks in light shades that add volume and highlight the lips. 

Unflattering Edges

If your lips are very thin or have unflattering edges, a great way to blur them is to combine two similar shades. For example, apply a thick liner in the lighter shade and fill in the lips in the darker shade. This will emphasize the center of the lips.

Heart-shaped

If your lips are heart-shaped, like those of Taylor Swift, for example, emphasize them first with a liner. If they are very thick, any shade of lipstick will compliment you (even the dark ones), but if they are not thick enough—it is advisable to avoid shades that are too dark and go for beige or nude shades.

Lip Scrub

If you’re a fan of face scrubs, we don’t need to tell you why lip scrub is important, too. If you don’t help remove the excess skin from your lips, they will never look their best no matter how much you moisturize.

Honey

Whenever you have time, put some honey on your lips and let it sit for 15-20 minutes before washing it off. Honey is a magical lip remedy that will transform the way your lips look in only several days.

Lip Balm

Use it on its own, underneath a lipstick, or overnight — lip balm is your best friend during winter. There are so many different ones on the market today, including vegan and natural options, that we’re sure you’ll easily find the perfect one for you.

Since the skin on our lips is very thin (approx. 3 times thinner than the skin on the face), and it also doesn’t have sebaceous glands, it has a hard time containing much-needed water. When you scrub your lips, you’re essentially removing the protective layer and make them even more prone to damage.

What to do instead?

Just let your skin renew naturally, without any mechanical action. Provide plenty of good ingredients such as sodium hyaluronate.
