Chapped lips are a common problem, especially during the cold and dry months. Don’t worry, though – with a little daily care, you can keep them soft, healthy, and beautiful all year round. This is your simple guide to healthy lips.
Exfoliate
Exfoliating helps remove dead skin cells. You don’t need anything fancy; you can make your own DIY lip scrub by mixing a bit of sugar with some honey. Gently rub your lips with the mixture for a minute, and then rinse it off.

After exfoliating, you must moisturise your lips. Apply a good-quality lip balm to lock in moisture. For the best results, look for balms with natural ingredients like shea butter and coconut oil.

Use a Lip Mask
Once or twice a week, use a lip mask to hydrate your lips even further. These masks are designed to moisturise and repair chapped lips overnight. Apply a generous amount of your lip mask on your lips before bed, and you’ll wake up to incredibly soft lips.
Other Tips
Here are some tips to keep your lips healthy:
- Drink plenty of water.
