It can be easy to overlook our lips. But treating the thin, sensitive skin to extra hydration and moisture is the perfect way to protect them from the elements. Lips are more prone to dryness than any other part of the face, so using balms and treatments helps soothe dry and chapped lips.
Dermstore offers a dermatologist-backed selection of products that are specially formulated to nourish chapped lips, with reparative vitamins and double protection providing care for delicate skin. Ingredients like shea butter and beeswax seal in the necessary hydration needed to improve the health of your lips, while vitamin E deeply conditions them. Kiss away the days of damaged lips.
Adding a lip dryness treatment or chapped lips remedy to your skincare routine is the perfect way to improve the look and feel of the skin here. However, while dry lips are associated with the cooler months because of the lack of moisture in the air, this ailment can strike can any point in the year due to the lips' lack of oil glands.
Getting into the habit of applying a gentle balm after you've completed your AM regimen can ensure you keep on top of lip care, whatever the season. Once you've added moisturizer and sunscreen, apply a lip balm of your choice. We stock a selection that works perfectly under makeup.
As well as balms and lip creams that work under lipstick, there's a range of products that suit the skin concern you want to focus on. If you want to lock in moisture, look out for products containing hyaluronic acid, while a dedicated cold cream or heavy-duty lip butter with chamomile can provide lip dryness treatment throughout the day.
As with other parts of the skin, your lips require protection from the sun too. There are products by Supergoop! and other brands containing SPF in a choice of flavors and shades that are designed to shield the delicate skin from UVA and UVB rays.
