Most girls are familiar with the problem of weather-beaten lips. In some of us, the lips are weather-beaten constantly, but there are others who feel such a feeling almost unfamiliar (although, to tell the truth, they are one). So, the reason lies not only in external factors, as it may seem at first glance. Though they, nevertheless, are the basic causal factor of occurrence of aeration.
Why is the weathering of the lips?
The most common cause is the wind. Especially if it is combined with summer heat, then the lips are affected immediately by two negative factors - both the wind and the sun's rays. The very process of airing the lips involves the loss of (lips) moisture. In winter, as a rule, weather-beaten lips are much less common than in summer or spring.
The next reason is temporary dehydration of the body. For example, if you have not drunk for a long time, then the lips are the first indicator that reminds you about it. You will have a feeling of dryness on your lips and mouth, and you will often lick your lips to even slightly moisten them.
And in itself, licking your lips (as a bad habit) often leads to drying and weathering the skin of your lips. So try to get rid of it, and when you feel dry on your lips, do not rush to lick them, so you do not moisten your lips, but only exacerbate the situation. It is better to always have a bottle of water and a lip balm on hand.
Still often the reason for which the lips are weathering is the toothpaste you do not like. The most harmful in this regard are toothpastes, with a high content of fluoride. This airing manifests itself not only on the lips, but also on the skin around the lips. In that case, you need to change your toothpaste.
The lack of vitamins in the body (namely vitamin A and E). In this case, the dryness of your lips will be almost constant, regardless of the season, the amount of liquid you drink, etc.
Another reason why the lips are weathering, may be the allergic reactions of your body to an external stimulus. In this case, without the help of a doctor, you will not be able to solve this problem.
What should I do if my lips are chapped?
The way to eliminate this trouble directly depends on the cause of its occurrence. It is logical that if the lips are heavily weathered due to hot winds, or exposure to sunlight, then it is necessary to eliminate airing by external intervention. The easiest way is to apply a moisturizing balm to your lips. You can use ready-made lip balms, but you can make it yourself.
If you think that the reason for the weathering is
If your body lacks vitamins A and E, then you can go in two ways. The first is to take these vitamins as a dragee. The second is to use cosmetics enriched with these vitamins. Which way is better for you - decide for yourself, they are both good enough.
Many moms are wondering, but what to do if the lips are worn out by the child? There are balms for the lips, which are designed for children. But if you doubt their quality, or can not find them on sale, then you can use folk remedies. The most popular means against the weathering of the lips is butter. They need to smear their lips like a balm, and let the oil soak. And juice of a fresh cucumber also helps a lot.
