Lip care: 3-step routine to make your lips smooth and healthy 

Lip care is vital, especially during extreme weather conditions. During winter they are severely chapped and summer makes them dehydrated. So just like you care for your body and face during these seasons, it’s important to take care of your lips.

When we talk lip care, there are several elaborated 10 step routines experts ask us to follow. The routine can be exhaustive and hard to keep up with every day.

Lip care is necessary but the repetitive application of lip balm can cause damage as lips are very sensitive.  Also, constantly swiping lip balm interferes with the lips’ natural process of adjusting to environmental changes, as per experts.

It’s recommended to apply lip balm when you wake up, after you eat or drink, and when you’re going to bed. It is better to stick to scrubbing them one to three times a week.

Here are simple steps to take care of your lips that are easier to follow and give better results.  Scroll down for three major steps to take care of your skin.

Step 1: ExfoliateLip care: 3-step routine to make your lips smooth and healthy

The first and the most crucial step in your lip care routine is exfoliation. Just like exfoliation for skin removes dead skin cells, exfoliation for lips sloughs away dead skin and chapped layers of lips.

It is always best to pick an exfoliating agent such as sugar and moisturizing ingredients like shea butter, oil and honey.

Method: Apply a small amount onto your lips and massage in circular motions with firm pressure before washing it off with lukewarm water. You will find your lips soft after one use.

Step 2: MoisturizerLip care: 3-step routine to make your lips smooth and healthy

Moisturizing your lips is the next step that will make a big difference in the appearance of your lips. It’s best to opt for a lip balm with hydrating ingredients.

Petroleum jelly also seals in that moisture and prevents your lips from looking dry and dehydrated. It’s also recommended to choose a lip balm that contains SPF, so you can moisturize your lips and protect them from the sun.

Step 3: MaskLip care: 3-step routine to make your lips smooth and healthy

The last and final step is to add an overnight lip mask to your daily routine. Lip masks are perfect for those who suffer from severely dry and chapped lips as they provide maximum moisture, so you wake up with plump, soft lips in the morning. As the lips are sensitive, try out these steps to make your lips more soft and healthy
