Perhaps we don't often think about it, but taking care of our lips is just as crucial as taking care of our skin. Our lips are exposed to a variety of stress factors, such as sun, cold, wind and dehydration, which can lead to a variety of problems, including chapping, unsightly dead skin and dry lines.
In winter as in summer, our lips are often dried out by the sun or the cold! The solution: moisturize your lips regularly with an appropriate balm.
Chapped lips, unsightly dead skin and dry lines. The mouth is particularly affected by climatic variations, excess air conditioning in the office or hormonal imbalances.
Chapped lips are a real nuisance. And since the mouth needs special attention, there are specific lip care products for it. Lip balms, cocoon treatments and lipsticks.
Above all, don't wait until you have chapped lips, use the stick as often and regularly as possible (as soon as the product wears off, for example) and always carry a lip stick with you, they're so easy to slip into a handbag, the glove compartment in the car, the drawer at the office.
Chapped lips are cracks that can appear when the lips are excessively dry. They are often painful and can bleed if severe. Chapping is generally caused by cold, wind or dehydration. Regular application of lip balm can help prevent and treat chapping.
This is a condition where dead skin cells accumulate on the surface of the lips, making them rough and uneven. This problem is usually caused by insufficient exfoliation and can be solved by incorporating an exfoliation routine into your lip care routine.
These small wrinkles can appear around the mouth when the skin is dehydrated. They are particularly visible when you smile or speak. Sufficient hydration can help reduce the appearance of these fine lines.

Lip balm
A good lip balm moisturizes your lips and creates a protective barrier that helps retain moisture. It's essential to choose a lip balm that contains moisturizing ingredients, such as shea butter,jojoba oil or beeswax.
Exfoliants
A lip exfoliant removes dead skin cells and reveals a new layer of skin underneath, helping your lips stay soft and smooth. We recommend exfoliating your lips once or twice a week to keep them healthy.
While there are commercially available lip scrubs, you can also make your own homemade lip scrub with a little vegetable oil or honey and sugar. You can finish with a thick layer of shea butter, which you leave on for a few hours to nourish your mouth, freshly cleansed of dead cells.
Stay hydrated
Drinking plenty of water is essential to keep your lips hydrated. Remember, hydration comes from within!
Avoid licking your lips
You might be tempted to lick your lips when they're dry, but this can actually make them drier. The evaporation of saliva can cause further dehydration. Try to avoid this habit.
Start by gently exfoliating your lips to remove dead skin cells. You can use a store-bought lip scrub, or make your own at home with sugar and honey. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells and reveals softer, smoother skin underneath.
After exfoliation, moisturize your lips with a hydrating lip balm. Look for ingredients such as beeswax, shea butter and jojoba oil. These ingredients help lock in moisture and prevent dryness.
Finally, protect your lips by using a lip balm with SPF during the day. This will help protect your lips from sun damage, which can cause chapping and accelerate skin aging.
To avoid chapped lips, try to avoid excessive exposure to sun and wind, both of which can dry out your lips. Also avoid lip products containing potential irritants such as menthol or camphor. Opt for a moisturizing lip balm and use it regularly to keep your lips hydrated.
