Cracked lips:
Lips do not produce oil like our skin, because they have no oil producing glands. The skin on our lips is actually mucous membrane, so for them to remain smooth and chap free is a bit of a challenge. The most common cause of cracked lips are allergic reaction to cosmetics, skin infections, extreme weather conditions like excess sun and wind exposure, biting of the lips or a vitamin B deficiency.
If you have cracked lips you have to do the following………
*Protect the lips from weather by applying heavy plain cream.
*Avoid licking your lips.
*To cure dry chapped lips apply peanut butter or coco butter to your lips before going to bed.
*Grind rose petals with cream on the top of milk and apply on lips to cure the cracked lips
*Take vitamin B, C foods in diet.
*Mix 2 drops of glycerine with 1 tsp of cream on the top of milk and apply to lips to cure the chapped lips and keep overnight to get smooth and shiny lips.
*Mix equal quantities of nutmeg, turmeric, and fresh butter and apply to lips.
*Hot water fomentation, followed by a mixture of Vaseline and honey applied on the lips at least thrice a week will prevent lips from chapping.
*Lips should be moisturized and exfoliated. Exfoliate lips with your gentle facial scrub using a toothbrush or just the tips of
your fingers. You can make a paste using baking soda and water to exfoliate lips as well. Work it for a minute and then rinse with lukewarm water.
General Care for lips
*Apply cold cream or moisturizer or lip balm before applying lipstick.
*To get natural pink lips apply beetroot juice before bed.
*Grind rose petals and apply on lips to get smooth pink lips
*Apply menthol based lip balm and take an old brush and brush gently on lips (don t rub too hard, because lip are very sensitive) to get rid off chapped lips.
