Begin with a gentle lip scrub to remove any dry, flaky skin. You can make a DIY scrub using sugar and honey.
Drink plenty of water to keep your body and lips hydrated from the inside out.
Include foods rich in vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids for overall skin health, which includes your lips.
Choose a nourishing lip balm with SPF to shield your lips from harsh winter elements. Apply it regularly throughout the day.
Apply a thicker, hydrating lip mask or balm before bedtime to repair and moisturize overnight.
Saliva can worsen dryness. Resist the urge to lick your lips and opt for a hydrating balm instead.
Combat indoor heating by using a humidifier to add moisture to the air, preventing your lips from drying out.
Matte lipsticks can be drying. Opt for creamy or satin finishes during the winter to keep your lips moisturized.
Even in winter, UV rays can harm your lips. Use lip balm with SPF when spending time outdoors.
Consistency is key. Reapply your lip balm regularly, especially after eating or exposure to the elements, to maintain soft and supple lips.
