Tips for beautiful glamorous lips

The lips deserve all our attention because they are not armed against bad weather. To care lips for your natural lips while making them desirable, it's possible!

In this winter, taking care of your lips is far from being superfluous. I gives you some tips to take care of them naturally and give them a glittering appearance!

Why protect your lips?

Our lips are used to modulate the tone of voice, to chew, to express an emotion and of course to give a smile or kiss when we love ...!
We must preserve them.

The skin that covers them is not the same one that covers the rest of our body. Indeed, the lips are semi-mucous membranes. They are not covered with epidermal horny layers like the rest of the face.

The lips are fragile

Have you noticed their pretty pink color? It is due to the fineness of the skin that covers the generously vascularized tissue of the lips. The blood vessels are on edge. In addition, the lips are devoid of sebaceous glands and can not properly lubricate the skin surface. This explains why the lips become so quickly dry.

Finally, the lips are not protected by the melanin pigments usually produced by the skin when we are under the sun's rays. The lips are very easily damaged by UV and must be seriously pampered in winter as in summer.

An organic lip care recipe and ... sweet!

For starters, one can think of exfoliating the lips to smooth them and prepare them for a nutritious care:

• The lips will be gently massaged with a homemade mixture made from thick white cheese and fine cane sugar (proportions: 50/50). Lactic acids mixed with glucose derivatives will make the lips soft and rejuvenated.
• We practice this gentle massage twice a week for five long minutes.

If the skin of the lips is chapped or the skin is cracked, you will especially avoid constantly wet your lips with saliva. It is a natural reflex, but it can only dry out your lips even more because the saliva evaporates immediately taking with it the low rate of hydration of the mucous membrane.

Better to apply a nourishing and softening treatment regularly.

Make your glamorous organic lip gloss!

For the day, try this glamorous gloss and deliciously scented:

• 1 tablespoon of semi-liquid honey (acacia) mixed with 2 teaspoons of rose hydrosol and ... an ultimate precious drop of Damask Rose essential oil.
• Keep the gloss in the fridge at night and in the bag during the day, in a small glass jar for example.
• Apply the tip of the index finger.

For the night, you will need a more intense care: the organic shea butter remains salvateur in case of lips weakened. You can combine a drop of essential oil of black pepper (piper nigrum), which will give your kisses a warm and tender taste at a time.
