Chapped lips: balms and sticks to moisturize dry and chapped lips
Another cause that can dry out the skin, including that of the lips, is poor hydration: it is therefore important to drink the right amount of liquids every day, which usually corresponds to at least 1 and a half liters of water a day.
In addition to not being aesthetically pleasing, chapped lips can cause small cuts that can become painful and annoying in the long run.
To have soft, velvety and kiss-proof lips, you should always have a good cocoa butter on hand and do a scrub at least once a week. You can find some on the market, but the cheap alternative is the do-it-yourself lip scrub based on sugar, honey and extra virgin olive oil. Just mix the ingredients and exfoliate the lips with the preparation, using a soft toothbrush.
Then all that remains is to moisturize. Here is a selection of lip products: between sticks, balms and cocoa butters you have only to choose.
