Winter hasn't arrived yet. But problems like skin tightening, skin wrinkling, and lips drying up are indicating that winter is here. The dry air and harsh sun have left the skin in a terrible state. But applying moisturiser or oil on the body, hands, feet, and face does the job. The problem arises with cracked lips. No matter how much petroleum gel is applied, your lips crack when winter comes. Sometimes lips crack and bleed. So, to avoid this problem, start taking care of your lips from now on. Find out what you should do.
Proper hydration:
Hydration is essential for lip care too. It's important to drink enough water during this season. Water keeps the lips moisturised by keeping the body hydrated.
Apply lip balm
To keep your lips hydrated, you must use lip balm. But just applying petroleum jelly won't work. Make sure the lip balm contains shea butter and coconut oil. These ingredients retain moisture in the lips. Also, choose a lip balm that contains SPF. This will prevent damage to your lips in the sun.
Scrub lips regularly
Scrubbing your lips occasionally is also important. This will clean the layer of dead cells accumulated on the lips. You can scrub your lips by mixing honey with sugar or coffee. This will also keep your lips soft and smooth.
Do not lick your lips
Do you keep licking your lips when they dry out? This habit makes lips even drier. Saliva makes lips more dry. So instead of licking your lips, apply lip balm. This way, you can also avoid the problem of cracked lips.
