If You Have Dry, Chapped Lips, This Is How to Heal Them

Our lips are quite delicate; they lack melanin, making them vulnerable to sunburns, and we can easily remove their protective layer by merely licking them (salivary enzymes do the harm). We may all benefit from learning a few tips for having soft, healthy lips that are kissable.

Avoid matte lipsticks.

Although matte lipsticks are fashionable, they will dry out your lips. Because of this, Instagram celebrities employ intensive lip treatments and hydrating primers to protect their lips from harm when showcasing new makeup trends or products.

Use a lip scrub.

Although exfoliation is necessary for healthy lips, acidic exfoliants are harmful, so it is preferable to stick with natural remedies. You can either buy them (be sure to carefully review the ingredient list) or make them yourself. A natural fine sugar should be used as an exfoliant as part of an oil base (such as shea or coconut oil). You can add mashed fruits and veggies or essential oils for flavour or your own enjoyment.
