Dry Lips –
why are my lips dry?
Does Labello
dry out lips?
Lip balms contain oils and moisturisers that soothe dry skin. They form a barrier on the skin's surface, which locks in moisture and prevents other harmful substances or environmental stresses from affecting the skin underneath.
Your lips are particularly susceptible to dryness, as they do not contain the sweat and oil glands that the rest of your skin has, so the only way to restore a protective barrier is by using a lip balm.
There is no chance of this process causing further dryness, and applying Labello lip balms is an essential part of a healthy daily lip care routine for you.What is making my lips
so dry?
You may not realise this, but your lifestyle could be having more of an impact on the health of your lips than you think.
One of the top causes of dry lips is dehydration. The root cause of this could be not drinking enough water or possibly cold weather causing your skin to dehydrate.
Other factors include drinking too much alcohol or smoking, licking your lips regularly, eating very spicy or acidic food, or breathing through your mouth instead of your nose.
Making small changes to your lifestyle can really make a difference to the health of your lips, and after you see the results, you’ll never want to go back!
One of the biggest causes of dry, chapped lips is sun damage. Applying a lip balm with SPF, like the NIVEA Lip Balm Sun Protect, is vital even in the winter months for preventing the effects of dry lips and keeping them soft and kissable for you.
