Lip care isn’t much of an appreciated step in our beauty routine. We always tend to forget that the skin on our lips is very sensitive to any changes that happen in our bodies such as dehydration, the environment such as exposure to the sun, tanning, and dry weather. With age your lips tend to become thinner and shrink due to the absence of sebaceous glands and many sensitive nerves.
Having proper lip care can result in having fuller and healthier looking lips. Protecting them from extreme weather climates such as the cold or heat should always be a step within your beauty regimen. Supplement intake is also essential to having not only healthy lips but also for your own health and body! Cheap lipsticks or lip balms contain various chemicals that are mostly likely to be harmful to your lips and more damaging than having nothing on.
They will definitely be harmful to the sensitive skin on your lips and make them dry out or maybe have an allergic reaction. Medical lip balms are always the safest option to go for, from a pharmacy or one that is prescribed from a dermatologist. Healthy lips are just as important as a healthy complexion, and are much easier to achieve. Prepping your lips before going out, or even during night-time is very important to avoid flaking or chapped lips, because most matte lipsticks have a drying effect on your lips, my lips definitely loose moisture after i have worn a matte lipstick. Prepping them will avoid this, even in the long run. It is essential to moisturize and prime your lips before applying any lipstick, and even without! Here are some products and home recipes I’ve used to in order to keep my lips full and plum.
