Dry, chapped or cracked lips adding to your end of year blues? A sudden change in temperature, environmental factors like sun damage or pollution, and even licking your lips too often—lead to a dry and flaky pout. Fun fact: our lips are actually the most sensitive part of our face.
We’re here to give you three simple lip care tips that are sure to turn that frown upside down.
Step 1: Scrub-a-dub-dub
Exfoliating your lips is the best way to get rid of all dryness and flakiness. Scrub lips with a scrumptious formula to start your lip treatment. Pick a lip scrub that both exfoliates and moisturises. Apply the scrub onto your lips and move your fingers in a gentle, circular motion to get rid of dead skin. Rinse and pat dry. Your lips will already feel pillowy and soft.
Step 2: Thanks for lip masking
Now, go in for a lip mask. These provide that much-needed moisture after a good scrub. Masks are extremely hydrating lip care products that give your lips a nice glossy plumpness. Place the mask on your lips and follow the directions on the label. Don’t forget to dip into the leftover serum from the package and smear on your lips.
Step 3: Lip oil be here for you
No balms, no glosses – go for a trusty oil to your lip care kit to soothe and nourish your lips. These lip oils are tiny tubes of luxury infused with the dual benefits of a shiny, tinted gloss and hydration of a lip balm. Keep this as the last step of your lip care routine. Use overnight while you get your beauty sleep and wake up with the yummiest feeling pout.
