Get your mouth ready for that
juicy holiday kiss! Your skin is not the
only body part that falls prey to dryness during the winter months. Lips don’t have oil glands, so that means
they dry out even faster than your skin does.
Take care of your lips this winter with these tips from The American
Academy of Dermatology:
Try
not to lick your lips. They will chap even more easily due to the cycle
of wetting and drying. Instead, moisturize them with petroleum jelly or
lip balm.
Protect
your lips when you go outside by wrapping a thick scarf around the lower part
of your face.
Use
a humidifier to boost the moisture in your home.
Use
lip balm with sunscreen of SPF 15 or higher. Exposure to UV rays make
chapped lips even worse, and white snow acts as a giant reflector.
Looking to plump your
lips? Try Juvederm for fuller lips and to fill the lines
around your mouth. Don’t forget your
teeth, either! Keep them beautiful by getting brighter, whiter teeth in the
convenience of your own home! Liquid Smile® Professional Tooth Whitening Pen whitens
up to five shades in just two weeks.
