by Miriam Jojo on May 16, 2022

Ayurveda envisages the lip to be one of the sensitive areas in the face. When you are lacking moisture in your lips as a result of weather changes, continuous sun exposure etc., you will have to again start caring for your lips from the beginning, from the basics. Afterall, your face will have a unique glow when you smile with those soft pink lips, right?! Even if you have pretty white teeth, your lips say how much you care about yourself. Whether you are wearing a lip balm or lip gloss, that too will be noticed. 

Believe it or not!  

People stare at you when you talk and notice your lip color also. Make it a habit not to bite your lips too often, it can darken your lips! 

Causes for dry and dull lips  

This can happen when you often use harsh chemical makeup and go out for prolonged hours. Even consuming hot spicy food for long periods makes a burning sensation in your lips.  

Symptoms of chapped lips  

Flaking, cracks, sores, swelling lips and bleeding lips show chapped lips. This condition can heal within two to three weeks if properly cared for.  

Taking care of your sweet lips  

The mantra here will be to first exfoliate the dead cells and remove them wisely using ingredients like sugar and honey, after this, you can give internal nourishment by using moisturizing substances like rose petals and milk, milk and turmeric, beet root juice, coconut oil, aloe vera and honey etc.  Coconut oil being a natural emollient is anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial in action. It acts as a barrier protecting the sensitive skin of lips. It also heals and moisturizes the skin.  

Topical application of Vitamin E oil and cucumber slices are also good to apply on a daily basis. Special lip care masks like turmeric - tomato mask are also good to include in your routine whenever you get time to care for your lips. These come under lip care routine home remedies also.
