Winter skin often means dry skin, including dry lips. If you suffer with chronically dry lips, here are 3 top tips that will allow you to take charge:
Tip 1: Protect
Just like the rest of your skin, lips can suffer from sun damage. Lip gloss alone just wonβt cut it; take care to apply sun protection. Choose from Antherpos XL SPF 50, Anthelios Lipstick SPF 50+, Ombrelle SPF 30 Lip Balm, Colorescience Lipshine SPF 35 and Fallene Lipcotz SPF 45.
Tip 2: Stop licking
Saliva quickly evaporates drying lips out further. And, it contains digestive enzymes that can break down the skin, creating a vicious dry skin cycle. Instead use healing balms such as Rosebud Salves or La Roche Posay Cicaplast Levres.
Tips 3: Exfoliate
Use a washcloth to remove dead dry skin cells or purchase an exfoliant lip product which will help to keep lips looking smooth and luscious.
