Question: My lips are always dry and peeling. Is there anything I can do to get them looking lush in winter?

 traceybell 3 months ago

HI Laura - yes this can be a problem for most of us in winter - not very kissable! The best treatment for this by far would be an injectable hydrator such as Juvederm Hydrate or Restylane Vital - which would use Hyaluronic Acid (naturally present in the skin) to draw moisture to the areas where it is placed. This leads to an improved skin condition - and also prevent lines and wrinkles forming. For more information please see http://www.traceybell.co.uk/skinscription/-skinscription.html

I would vote for not injecting your lips with anything (sounds painful!) I've heard bees wax lip balm is a winner

I find Dermalogica Skin prep scrub is a really good exfoliator and works well with this problem.

Hi, The best treatment for dry lips is to replenish the moisture naturally. I would personally recommend the use of shea butter / beeswax blend which replenishes the lost moisture and also gives your lips a natural healthy gloss to them. Shea butter also gives a plumped up look to the lips as well as treating the soreness and healing the cracked skin. As we ingest most lip products I would keep away from anything that is not 100% natural as you would be effectively ingesting potential harmful chemicals. All my clients use my own natural lipbalms with great results, but you can find natural lipbalms in most health food stores or online as well. Please read the label before buying so you can avoid any preservatives and chemicals.

Exfoliating is useful but many toothpastes contain SLS's! which may be counter productive if too harsh for your skin.
I would recommend you avoid mineral/petroleum oil based balms, opt instead for natural alternatives which will nourish the skin rather than suffocate it.

Of course, Id recommend Innocent Oils - Hemp Seed Oil Balm, to protect and restore your lips to their former kissable self.

Best wishes

Dear Laura, just use a lip balm on a regular basis - a few times a day, especially if you are going outside and sit in the office with lots of conditioning - check out this one http://www.bodysilk.co.uk/products/dr-belter/intensa/intensa/lip-balsam/7-17

Happy to help. Just in time for Valentine's Day.

LIps are so important. Lips let you shine your smile, and kiss the ones you love. Let's help you pucker up with Sensua! Kiss for guaranteed great results.

There are many factors of why lips are so vulnerable. We just launched the perfect solution. No more dry or cracked lips ever. Most lip products are made from petro chemicals (In the USA 98% of all lip products are petrochemically based.) or they are ingredients that are made from a material that merely sits on the surface of the skin.
LIke you, I was frustrated that there were no products that actually worked for the long term. So i went to work researching and experimenting and formulating until we got the solution just right.
We have created a revolutionary lip product that not only heals, soothes, smoothes, plumps, enhances and prevents cracking, but penetrates into the mucous membrance of your lip to heal, from the inside, out. Remarkable results are visible within seconds.

The average time for a client to see results is 22 seconds. Daily use will see your lips smoother, younger, free from ines and cracks and be kissable soft. Use just like you use a lip gloss, only it heals, plumps, soothes, and smoothes.
I call the colour , " Pearlized Champagne."
Exfoliating, which you have been doing with a toothbrush, is only one of the steps. Lips need not only exfoliation but healing, moisturizing, sun protection and soothing. We have a patent on this remarkable product, Sensua! Kiss.
See the video enclosed and our website for more details.

You can try our trial pack ( five applications ) for only $3.
Experience remarkable results for yourself: the Sensuality of Science , in Sensua! Kiss.
The best of science, the best of nature.

Avoid to use same toothbrush for teeth brushing and lip exfoliation. After all you don't need expensive brush to exfoliate your lips. Lip glosses are not recommended as well as often contain silicone which drying your lips, always use a lip balm before use of lip gloss.

Apart from using lip balm and moisture products for your lips, it is best to start with moisture from within, keeping hydrated by drinking plenty of water as well as getting regular amounts of fish/fish oils in you ;-)
