Dry, chapped, sore lips are common problems in winter. Although not dangerous, they bring an uncomfortable feeling.

Below are effective ways to nourish your lips, helping them become plump and smooth overnight.

Exfoliate

To keep your lips plump and free of flaking, the first thing you should do is exfoliate. You can exfoliate your lips every day by using a soft toothbrush and gently rubbing it in circular motions on your lips.

Alternatively, you can mix coconut oil, honey and brown sugar to create a lip scrub. Apply this mixture to your lips, massage for about a minute and then rinse with warm water, twice a week.

Always carry lip balm

Consider lip balm an indispensable item when going out in the winter. Lip balm will help soften lips, make lipstick easier to absorb and prevent harmful substances that lipstick can leave behind.

However, you should not use lip balm too many times a day. They can make the skin on your lips too soft, prone to cracking and counteract the inherent moisturizing effect.

Apply primer before applying lipstick

Using a lip balm before applying colored lipstick is essential. This will help your lipstick color go on smoother and more evenly. Well-moisturized lips will also reduce dryness and peeling while still keeping the lipstick color long-lasting.

Use lipstick with nourishing ingredients

This lipstick not only helps you save time on makeup but also ensures that your lips are always moist. Using lipstick with a lot of moisturizing color can fade faster than matte lipstick but limits the lead in lipstick, which will cause dark lips in the long run.

Don't lick your lips

When their lips are dry, many women have the habit of licking their lips. They think that saliva will help soften their lips. In fact, this only makes your lips more chapped and even bleed.

Saliva contains enzymes, inorganic salts, proteins, amylase (a type of starch enzyme),... When you lick your lips, you cover them with a thin layer of amylase. When exposed to wind and low humidity, the water in the solution will evaporate, leaving only this substance stuck on the surface. They make the lips shrink and become drier than before.

Drink enough water

Lips do not contain oil glands like skin, so they can become dry and chapped easily. Dry lips are also a sign of dehydration. You should drink 6-8 glasses of water every day to provide enough moisture for your skin and lips.

Use anti-aging cream around the lip line

When you turn 25, your skin and lips start to show signs of aging and are no longer as plump as before. Therefore, to prevent this, you should use anti-aging cream for the skin around the lip line. The skin around the eyes and the lip line is equally thin and sensitive, so you can use the same moisturizer.
