- Lips become very chapped. What to do? E. Moisak, Gomel
“Regularly use lip balms with shea butter, coconut, beeswax, vitamins E, B3, C. If crusts and cracks have already appeared on your lips, look for lanolin and dexpanthenol in lip products, which promote the healing process,” recommends doctor, cosmetologist, aromatherapist Natalya GRAMOVYCH. – Lips become chapped due to a lack of natural moisture (there are no sebaceous and sweat glands on the lips) under the influence of cold, wind, sunlight, dry indoor air and certain diseases (diabetes mellitus, iron deficiency anemia, streptococcal damage, candidiasis, etc.) .
During the cold season, do not use matte lipsticks, do not lick your lips, humidify the air in the room where you are for a long time so that the skin does not dry out. If dry, cracked lips are a constant problem for you regardless of the season, then you should consult a doctor to find out the cause and prescribe treatment.”
