As soon as temperatures start to drop and the wind turns colder, our lips are often the first to feel the change of season. Dry winter air can cause our lips to lose moisture quickly, leading to cracking and soreness. With our lip care tips, we can avoid winter discomfort and keep your lips smooth and healthy even during the coldest months.

Hydrate
Regularly apply quality balms or oils to nourish and hydrate your lips. Applying a lip product should be part of your daily routine.
Hydration from within is important too. Drink enough water. Even if it may be less tempting when it’s cold outside, maintaining sufficient water intake is key to keeping lips hydrated.

Gentle exfoliation
Dead skin can cause lips to crack and feel rough. Using a gentle scrub will remove dead cells and support skin regeneration.

From our range, you can try, for example, a honey scrub or one with cocoa extract and shea butter.

Avoid licking your lips
Although it may seem like quick relief from dryness, licking your lips actually makes them dry out faster. Saliva removes the natural oil that protects lips from external influences.

Use a quality lip balm
Invest in a good lip balm that contains moisturising ingredients such as beeswax, shea butter, vitamin E or jojoba oil. Apply balm regularly throughout the day, especially before you go out into the cold.

Humidifier
Consider using a humidifier at home, especially if you have central heating, which can dry out the air. Humidified air will help keep your lips (and skin) hydrated.

Night care
Don’t forget your lips at night either. Use a thicker layer of balm or a special overnight lip cream. Try the popular Laneige balms and overnight masks.

Prevention is the key to successful lip care. Start caring for your lips before the first frosts arrive, and when winter truly comes, your lips will be ready to face its challenges.
