1. Exfoliation: removing impurities for better hydration
Before starting your moisturizing routine, it’s essential to rid your lips of dead cells and accumulated impurities. Exfoliation stimulates blood circulation and promotes better absorption of moisturizing products.
For this, opt for a gentle exfoliator specially designed for lips. Avoid exfoliants that are too rough and could attack this sensitive area. By performing this step once or twice a week, your lips will be ready to receive all the moisture they need.
2. Moisturizing: the secret of soft, supple skin
The crucial step for well-moisturized lips is the regular application of a suitable balm or moisturizing cream. Look for products rich in natural ingredients such as shea butter, sweet almond oil or vitamin E, known for their nourishing properties.
Apply balm generously several times a day, especially after eating, drinking or exposing your lips to cold winds. Keeping a balm handy helps prevent dryness and keeps your lips supple all day long.
3. Hyaluronic acid injections: a lasting solution
If, despite your best efforts, your lips are showing signs of chronic dehydration or fine lines, injections of dermal fillers such as hyaluronic acid may be an option to consider.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance known for its ability to retain moisture. When injected into the lips, it acts as a powerful moisturizing agent, attracting and retaining water to deeply hydrate labial tissues. This helps prevent dryness and maintain soft, supple lips.
In addition to hydration, hyaluronic acid helps give your lips a fuller appearance and smooth fine lines and wrinkles around the lips.
