5 ways to get soft, kissable lips this winter

If you fear suffering from dry, chapped lips, try these simple ways that will help you get soft, luscious, kissable lips this winter.

Chapped, dry lips are one of the most common winter woes. The harsh cold weather makes the lips rough leaving them dry, chapped, flaky, cracked and even painful and the discomfort is quite annoying. The skin on our lips is very thin, sensitive and lacks sweat glands. So we need to give our lips some TLC from our side to ensure they stay smooth in winters. 

Here are some tips to help keep your lips moisturized and luscious even in this dry season:

Stop licking and biting your lips

Licking will make your lips drier and the constant biting can cause bleeding, so you need to get rid of this nasty habit. Carry a chap stick or lip balm always so that you can rescue your lips in time.

Keep yourself hydrated

Dehydration is one of the most ignored and common reasons that cause dry lips. Water keeps the skin soft and moist. In winter, our water intake is low and this can lead to dehydration. The side effect—dry, cracked lips. So drink enough water and your lips will not crack as often.

Lip care before bedtime

Include lip care in your night time skin care regime. Apply a good coating of moisturizing balm before going to sleep and let it work its magic all night long. Wake up to soft and supple lips every morning. 

Try natural ways to treat dry lips

Apart from commercial lip balms and chap sticks, you can also get some natural cures for your dry lips. Natural ingredients are often readily available in our kitchen and can protect and repair the lips from within. Plus these are cost-effective and will cause no harm to your lips. Try concocting the right recipe with honey, sugar, coconut oil, rose water, glycerin, lemon juice, shea butter and aloe vera. You will love the way your lips feel.

Cut down caffeine and smoke

Tea and coffee are tempting in winters. But those extra cuppers can cause dehydration to your lips. Instead of hot caffeine, try herbal tea or a decaf.  Similarly, smoking can easily dry out the skin on your lips, while also making it dark. This gives you all the more reason to quit smoking.

Exfoliate your lips

Exfoliating helps remove dry and dead cells from the skin. It works wonders on your skin and so will it on your lips. Weekly lip exfoliation can help you get rid of chapped skin and reveal softer lips. You may use a soft toothbrush and lots of Vaseline to gently exfoliate your lips. Do not forget to moisturize, thereafter.
