Meanwhile, the thermometer outside the window shows a lower and lower air temperature every day. And if at this time we smear our face with creams, protect it in every possible way, then we very often forget about our lips. As a result, they dry out and begin to peel. Dry lips cause a lot of inconvenience. You feel unpleasant discomfort (often they swell up a lot, begin to sting). Is it possible to talk about kissing in such a situation? Because of this, you even begin to feel a little embarrassed. But it's time to finally say a firm "No!" to this very relevant problem today. All the most important answers to the question of how to treat the skin of the lips, if the lips are dry, and how to return them to life and a normal healthy state, you will find here. If you are going to be outdoors for a long time, be sure to take hygienic lipstick or nourishing lip balm with you, and be sure to periodically lubricate your lips with this product.
Which lip care product to choose?
Hygienic lipstick very often leaves a markThe lips have a fairly thick oily shine. If you don’t like it, give preference to products based on thermal waters. You can find hygienic lipsticks of this composition in any drugstore. Dry skin on the lips requires special care. Before going outside, be sure to apply lip balm or protective moisturizer (if you don’t have any special products, you can even use baby cream). These products will protect your lips from chapping. If the products you purchased can also protect your lips from exposure to ultraviolet rays, that’s just great. Despite the fact that in the cold season the sun usually appears very rarely, ultraviolet rays continue to penetrate the cloud cover. Therefore, it is very important to take good care of your lips even in winter. If you used lipstick with increased resistance before, now buy lipstick with a fairly oily base. Lipstick with increased resistance penetrates deep enough into the skin of the lips, thereby degreasing it. Thus, moisture begins to evaporate faster from the surface of the lips, they become drier. Oily lipstick, on the contrary, retains moisture in the lips, additionally nourishing them. It is advisable to refuse fluoridated toothpaste. Fluoride toothpaste in some cases can contribute to increased dryness of the lips, as well as the appearance of inflammation on the skin around the mouth. Try to drink as often as possible. In cold weather, always carry a small bottle of water or juice in your bag. You should not drink on the street, as this will only harm your lips more. It is better to drink a small sip as soon as you find yourself in a room. This way, dry lips will receive additional moisture. After that, do not forget to apply hygienic lipstick!
