They say the most beautiful thing a person can wear on their face is a smile. Your smile is not only shiny white teeth , but also your lips! Every woman would like to have soft, pink and plump lips, but for some reason this seems like a pipe dream to some. In fact, lips are much more sensitive to proper care than it seems at first glance. And damaged, dry, pigmented lips speak of health problems.

Your lips deserve special care and attention, and it's important to keep them moisturized and restore their natural softness and smoothness. We've got a list of a few simple home remedies to achieve naturally rosy, plump and soft lips.

First, let's take a look at what actually causes lips to become dry and discolored. Let's try to study the problem in more depth.

WHY LIPS CRACK AND COLOR

As we have said, lips require a special, delicate approach. The skin on the lips is thinner compared to your face. Your lips don't have sweat glands, so they require special daily care to keep them hydrated and looking their best. The main causes of chapped and discolored lips are due to the following reasons:

• Unhealthy lifestyle including smoking, poor diet and stress


• Dehydration - insufficient daily water intake


• Abuse of caffeine (coffee, green tea, etc.)


• Use of expired lip products


• Using poor quality lip products


• If the make-up at night is not washed off


• Anemia


• Excessive sun exposure and environmental pollution

Now, with our fast paced lives, it becomes difficult to keep track of all these factors, and we tend to forget to drink more water or apply lip balm that contains UV protection on time. But this is important, and you should remember to protect your lips and prevent possible damage.

OK. We figured out the reasons. Now we need to move on to action, right?

HOW TO MAKE LIPS SOFT, PLUMBER AND PINK?

Here are some easy remedies for naturally soft and plump lips that you can safely prepare in the comfort of your own home. But cook them responsibly, and in time you will achieve what you want!

Caution: Please always do a patch test before trying any of these methods if you are allergic to any of the specific ingredients.

LIP BALM AND MICROFIBER FACE CLOTH / TOOTHBRUSH

This is one of the easiest and most effective ways to get rid of dry, flaky and chapped lips. I assure you, it works wonderfully, every time! And if you leave the lip balm on all night, it will be even better.

What you need:

• Good lip balm (thick consistency)


• Soft toothbrush or microfiber cloth

Mode of application:

• Start by applying a thick layer of balm to your lips. The best time to do this is in the evening before going to bed. It acts as a wonderful intensive overnight treatment.


• As soon as you wake up, you will notice that the lip balm has completely absorbed into your lips (unless of course you slept with your face in the pillow, then your pillowcase has absorbed the balm 😃), use a damp toothbrush to gently massage and exfoliate your lips to remove dead skin tissue.


• You can also use a damp microfiber cloth instead of a toothbrush.


• By removing excess balm and cleansing the skin, you will reveal fresh, moisturized lips.

How often?

Just like moisturizing your face and body every day, moisturizing your lips with a lip balm is a must and you can use the above method daily. Applying a thick layer of lip balm at night has its benefits! You will sleep, and your lips will become softer and softer😊.

How it works?

Regular gentle exfoliation, thanks to lip balm, helps to effectively remove dead and flaky skin from the surface of the lips. It helps to keep and moisturize the lips, and also heals microcracks on them. Win-win option!
