Dealing with dry, cracked, and painful lips is an unavoidable struggle in the cold winter.

For those enduring lip troubles throughout the chilly season, here are some tips.

👄 Why Lips Get Chapped?
The face has pores that produce sweat and sebum, creating a moisturizing barrier. However, lips lack pores, making them vulnerable to dryness, especially due to their thin skin.

1️⃣ Stay Hydrated
Dehydration symptoms often manifest first on the lips. Drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day is ideal.

2️⃣ Avoid Licking or Picking Lips
Licking lips evaporates saliva, leading to increased dryness. Additionally, picking at flakes can cause bleeding or weaken the skin, potentially leading to infections.

3️⃣ Avoid Breathing Through the Mouth
Breathing through the mouth overnight can dry out the lips. Try to modify nighttime breathing habits.

4️⃣ Get Your Vitamins
Vitamins A, B, C, B2, and E play crucial roles in maintaining healthy skin and lips. Consistent intake of vitamins can prevent lips from cracking.

5️⃣ Apply Moisturizer
Applying a moisturizer before lips become dry is crucial. Consider using nut oils or seed butters for effective moisturization.
