Lip Care: Tips for pleasantly soft lips

Lips are often the focus of make-up and are not only highlighted with lipstick or lip gloss, but should also be wonderfully smooth and soft at the same time. The right lip care is essential to provide the lips with plenty of moisture and to keep the sensitive skin on the lips supple.
But not all lip care is the same! Find out everything about the different lip care products here:

Lip Balm

The lip balm is the classic and best-known way to care for your lips. Thanks to its practical format, it is ideal for on the go and is also wonderfully hygienic because you simply twist it out of the case and apply it directly to your lips.

Lip Butter and Lip Balm

Lip butter and lip balm are significantly richer than the usual lip care sticks. However, they are now also available in the practical stick format. Otherwise, you can also find lip balm and lip butter in small jars or tubes.

Lip Peeling

As with facial skin, a peeling is the perfect choice for dry skin, as excess skin flakes are gently removed and the skin underneath is revealed to be very soft.

In contrast to the face, you can also use lip scrub with a mechanical basis – especially fine sugar particles are a great, harmless option.

Lip Treatments and Lip Masks

Especially in the winter cold and dry air indoors, we want to treat the sensitive skin on our lips to a special treatment and provide it with plenty of care and moisture. Intensive lip masks and treatments enriched with particularly rich ingredients are ideal for this.

How to use: You usually apply the products in the evening and leave them on overnight.

Tips for even more beautiful lips

Do you want beautiful lips for kissing? Learn what you need to consider when caring for your lips with these tips:

• Sun protection: Just like the skin on your face, the sun is one of your biggest enemies. That's why you should make sure that your lip care product also offers UV protection during the day.
• Don't lick your lips: A stupid habit that probably needs to stop now. Saliva dries out the lips even more and irritates the delicate skin unnecessarily.
• Intensive care for the night: An intensive lip balm or lip mask works wonders if you apply it thickly overnight. If you exfoliate beforehand, you can look forward to wonderfully soft lips the next morning.
• Lip-friendly make-up: Pay attention to which lipstick or lip gloss you use, especially in winter. Products with a matte finish tend to remove moisture from your lips. So opt for shiny formulas with nourishing ingredients like shea butter or hyaluronic acid.
• Natural oils and high-quality ingredients: Some ingredients stand out in particular when it comes to lip care. Note that they are not formulated on a mineral oil basis, but instead contain oils such as olive oil, coconut oil or jojoba oil. Shea butter, beeswax, apricot kernel oil and vitamin E also have great moisturizing effects. Honey also has an anti-inflammatory and soothing effect.

What does really nourish the lips?

Lip care based on high-quality oils and butters provides the lips with plenty of moisture. More intensive care products are ideal for the night to give the lips a rich treatment. With a peeling you can get rid of annoying skin flakes and the lips will become much smoother and softer
