Care For Your Lips

Hello bies,

It's been a week I'm not updated my blog! I hope you guys have a great day by day. This lately, I'd like to talk about lips with my friends and here we go - lips!


As girls, almost all of us love wearing lip colors – be it vibrant and bright shades or nude and pastel hues. But no lipstick can create a perfect pout if your lips aren’t well cared for!
The skin on our lips is much thinner than the skin on the other parts of our body. This makes it easier for them to crack and chap and makes it much more important for us to take extra care of.
Our lips have a lesser amount of oil glands and no ability to create the sun-filtering natural melanin. This means that they have virtually no protection of their own. Chapped lips are most common in winter when the cold, dry air dehydrates our skin. But winter isn’t the only season which spells trouble for our lips. Dry air, sun, and wind will equally dry your lips all year round.
Regular use of lip balm offers the fastest remedy for chapped, dry lips. Composed of waxes and oils, some formulas also contain menthol or camphor to soothe rawness and stinging. Others feature allantoin or aloe to speed healing. Many incorporate sunscreens as a must for outdoor exposure but make sure they contain UVA-protecting ingredients like avobenzone, titanium dioxide or zinc oxide.
In addition to the above, there are a few other things that you can try in order to aid the effect of the lip balm. Before you start understanding about the various lip care tips and tricks, here is a brief glimpse at the troubles you may face with your lips.

When it comes to lip care, you should firmly believe in the saying ‘prevention is better than cure!’ It is always possible to restore the health of your lips. But it takes time for the results to be visible and in the meanwhile, you will have to put up with the pain that lip problems cause.


10 Simple and Effective Lip Care Tips:

When it comes to lip care, you should firmly believe in the saying ‘prevention is better than cure!’ It is always possible to restore the health of your lips. But it takes time for the results to be visible and in the meanwhile, you will have to put up with the pain that lip problems cause.
Here are some simple tips that will help you to take care of your lips:

1. Do not Touch or Lick your Lips:

Lips do not have any protection of their own, which means that each time you touch them or lick them, they are getting directly affected. It is essential that you do not do anything that will make the problem worse

2. Follow Healthy Diet Plan:

A good diet is essential not just for your skin but even for your lips. Vitamins and other nutrients reflect directly on the condition of your lips. It is essential that you stay on a healthy diet to have lovely lips!

3. Stay Hydrated By Drinking Lot of Water:

Staying hydrated is one of the most important things when it comes to healthy lips. Just as your skin needs to be kept hydrated from the inside, so do your lips.

4. Remove Makeup:

Your lips need to be able to breathe by being clear.
  • Make sure you remove all traces of makeup from your lips before you sleep.
  • Use a damp cotton ball and wipe your lips clean.

5. Keep Your Lips Hydrated Overnight:

While we are awake we know when our lips dry out, but this could be a problem when you are asleep.
The air around you tends to dry out your lips while you sleep.
  • Make sure you use a heavy or hydrating lip cream or some petroleum jelly before you sleep.
  • You can also use cream or raw milk for the same or even ghee (clarified butter).

6. Massage your Lips:

You can use some nourishing oils to massage your lips for about 5 minutes every day.
This improves the blood circulation in your lips and ensures that they get the nutrients that are needed.

7. Scrub Your Lips:

Scrubbing your lips is important to ensure that they stay healthy and soft. Removing dead skin cells is a must to make sure that your lips don’t succumb to any infection.
  • Use any mild scrub that is available in the market for lips
  • Alternatively, you can make your own lip scrub at home with some rock sugar.

8. Always Carry a Lip Balm:

You never know when your lips tend to start drying out. Make sure you have a good creamy and hydrating lip balm with you even while you are traveling.

9. Use Lipsticks when Stepping Out:

Yes, the good news is that it is good to use some lipstick before you step out. Since, the lips have no natural protection, wearing a lipstick will help you add a layer to them. Using lipsticks protects your lips from the sun, dry air, dirt, and other outside factors.

10. Know when it is time to ask for help:

Sometimes, despite all these preventive measures, your lips still need help. If you have tried the above home remedies and tricks and it still is not working, it is time to visit a doctor. Make sure you don’t make it too late!
Keep these simple and amazing tips in mind to get those naturally healthy and soft lips. Take care and flaunt your perfect pout in style!
love, tinie
