The chapped lips it is a very common problem. They usually appear in the colder months of the year, are definitely annoying and can be painful or even bleed.

 
But why do lips crack more often in winter? The skin on the lips is different than the skin on the rest of the face. Although the underlying structures are similar, the skin on the lips is much thinner and more sensitive (semimucosa) than on other parts of the face and body. It also has no sebaceous glands, so it does not produce fat (sebum) to moisturize the lips from the inside. Because the lips are constantly exposed to the elements of nature, in the winter when it's cold and the humidity in the atmosphere is reduced, they become more prone to dryness, chapping and peeling."

Remedies for chapped lips

There are several ways to treat dry and chapped lips. The most common are the following:

  • Use a good lip balm for the lips
Lip balm ingredients can include menthol and camphor. Some lip balms are better than others and popular brands may contain ingredients that dry out the lips. For example, many lip balms contain menthol or another mint flavor. This can provide a cooling sensation, but peppermint is very drying and can leave lips more chapped than before.

  •  Exfoliate the lips
Chapped lips are covered by a layer of dry skin that can prevent the healing ingredients of lip balms from reaching the right area. You can use lip scrubs that contain sugar or baking soda to gently exfoliate this dry skin. Look for lip scrubs that contain ingredients that will soothe and moisturize the lips.

  • Drink water
  • Use a humidifier
  • Try natural lip treatments with Aloe vera, Coconut Oil, Honey, Cucumber or Green Tea
