Lip treatments and tips

Why is it important to treat your lips at any time of the year?

We probably already know the importance of taking care of our lips in winter. However, lip skin is thinner and more sensitive than facial skin, as is the area around the eyes, so maintaining specific care throughout the year is very important if we want to keep them soft, healthy and juicy.

The lip is a part of our body that we use constantly, and it is not only exposed to the cold, but also to other external factors such as the sun, heat, wind, sudden changes in temperature, free radicals and even the consumption of certain salty or spicy foods and smoking. All this contributes to increased dehydration causing cracks, dryness, itching and redness, in some cases.

And not only do they dehydrate, dry out and crack, they also flake and age, so it is crucial to care for them daily with lip treatments that provide the necessary active ingredients to keep them protected, moisturized, supple and young, just as we do with the rest of our skin.

The lips are one of the most sensitive tissues of the face, have a skin four times thinner and are located halfway between mucosa and skin.

They are composed of the muscular part, the skin that covers it and the salivary glands, they also have a very low water content and no sebaceous glands, so, not having enough fat content they become dehydrated, dry, cracked, losing the ability to repair naturally and being more unprotected are very prone to infections, making them more vulnerable and thus lose the appearance of healthy lip, its flexibility, softness, juiciness, volume, and attractiveness.

We have often sought the solution of moistening them with saliva, even though we know that this is not the correct solution. Saliva is not an alternative to hydration; on the contrary, it dries them even more.

For all these reasons, using lip care is essential on a daily basis in order to repair them, keep them protected and even apply them every night before going to sleep if we want to achieve a healthy and beautiful lips.
