But especially during winter time, the thin skin on our lips can become irritated and loses its moisture. We show you how to kiss cracked lips goodbye in the future.

Treat your lips with a quick massage from time to time. Use a new toothbrush and make sure that the bristles are not too hard. Massage your lips with circular motions – this helps to stimulate blood circulation and gently removes dead skin cells. As an alternative, you can make your own homemade peeling which have the same effect.

Use oils such as coconut oil or olive oil, add a sufficient amount of sugar and rub the scrub onto your lips. The natural ingredients of the oil additionally nourish the skin on your lips.

In order to prevent inflammations, chapped lips and herpes blisters, use honey.

Apply a small amount of honey onto your lips and let it sit for a few minutes before licking it off. The natural product has healing, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties to treat chapped lips.

If you are a fan of frequent lip care, you should protect your beautiful lips from the sun, too. A lot of lip balms have high-quality ingredients but neglect UV protection.  In summer, make sure to use SPF 20+ in order to avoid long-term damage due to too much sunlight.

Many women have the problem that they do not drink enough during the day.

If the body does not get enough water, the skin often becomes very dry. Lips, hands and feet usually are the first parts to become extremely dry.

Decorative cosmetic items often have more to offer than to just look good: Look for lipsticks which contain additional moisturising and nourishing ingredients. Thus, you will avoid dry skin and do not always have to remind yourself to apply additional moisturizer.

If you do not want to buy an extra base for lipsticks, you can use lip liners instead.

Before using lipstick, roughly colour your lips with lip liner in order to avoid smudging or feathering of the colour.

Highlights make a beautiful make-up complete. As soon as you highlight your lips, your eye make-up should be subtle. If you want to know how to make your eyes naturally beautiful in a quick and easy way, have a look at our Magazine.
