How to Care for and Hydrate Your Lips?

When asked what one likes to appreciate in a person, they will respond, like most people, that it is the lips, as they are a symbol of sensuality. Unfortunately, the cold temperatures have arrived, and our entire body suffers, especially the lips. Why?

Hydrating our lips helps repair them, strengthen them, and make them visually more beautiful.

Before hydrating our lips, we must first exfoliate them. For this, a homemade "recipe": honey with a little sugar. Gently rub this mixture on the lips, leave it on for a few minutes, and rinse with warm water. If you don't like honey, replace it with olive oil. After exfoliation, applying a lip balm is a must. This allows deep hydration and can be taken wherever you go.

Do not:

• Do not lick your lips because it actually dries them out. Even though it may initially seem to have a positive effect, it evaporates quickly and dries. Moreover, our saliva contains enzymes that dehydrate our tissues.
• Avoid applying long-lasting lipsticks as they not only dry out the mouth but also prevent the lips from breathing.
• Avoid foods that are high in acidity, such as lemon, vinegar, or even mustard, and spicy dishes. They sting, hurt, and are not good for the lips. Use a fork to avoid direct contact with the skin.
• Breathing through the mouth promotes cracks; therefore, when thinking about it, breathe through the nose.
• Cigarettes dehydrate and discolor the lips, so avoid smoking.

What natural products to use to hydrate the lips in winter?

What do beeswax, honey, and vegetable oils have in common? All these ingredients can help save your lips in winter. Less irritating and especially much less harmful than certain lip balms, they are, however, very effective against chapped skin and small unpleasant bleeding associated with the cold. Furthermore, you don't need to look far to find them. A quick tour of the kitchen and you're ready.

To avoid drying out: drink plenty of water

Drinking at least a liter of water a day, even in winter, is the key to healthy lips all year round. If you engage in a lot of sports, it is advisable to increase the amount to be ingested, with good hydration being essential to avoid cracks. It's a good principle.

For lip hydration: beeswax and almond oil

If drinking is not enough to keep your lips healthy, there are many ethical and economical tips to save them. The most effective: the mixture of beeswax and almond oil (organic for purists). When heated over low heat, they provide the necessary hydration for your lips to stay hydrated until spring arrives. If you don't have almond oil, you can replace it with shea butter. Another good hydration plan is coconut oil, which has soothing properties.

To repair chapped lips: a mixture of honey and vegetable oil

If your lips are extremely chapped, they will certainly need good treatment. For this, nothing could be simpler, just bring honey and vegetable oil, a perfect fatty substance. First step, apply a thin layer of honey. Then let it sit for fifteen minutes and rinse with warm water. Apply castor oil or olive oil and let it act again for fifteen minutes.

To heal lip wounds: aloe vera gel

Aloe vera gel is the miraculous cure for chapped skin. This succulent plant is truly able to absorb moisture from the air around it, but also that which is deposited on your lips and creates these cracks. It also acts as a water reservoir for the skin. The gel is applied directly to the lips just like a lip balm, anytime during the day.
