Features of the skin of the lips
There are few sebaceous glands in the lip area, and they are located only at the very corners. This explains the fact that lips dry out and peel off without leaving very quickly, and it is difficult to avoid the appearance of cracks on them with complete inactivity. Dry and chapped lips both look unaesthetic and cause some discomfort to a woman.
The main causes of dry lips are:
- the impact of external factors - wind, sun, frost;
- bad habits - smoking in particular;
- age-related changes;
- avitaminosis.
The wrong choice of decorative cosmetics can also dry your lips. Even matte lipsticks, so popular in recent years, dry out the sensitive skin of the lips. Therefore, caring for them means taking care of an important part of your own appearance.
Care lies in proper nutrition (without it, there is no need to talk about beauty), and in the correct selection of care products.

Types of cosmetics
Do not wait for irritation, dryness, cracks on your lips. Get started today. Both in cosmetics stores and in pharmacies, it is easy to find products that will perfectly cope with the preservation of the beauty and health of your lips.
Care products can be as follows.
- Cleansing. They should be used daily. Such means are lotion, milk, nourishing cream.Peeling products also belong to cleansing cosmetics, but they are not used as often, once every 7-14 days. If you choose peeling, use the most gentle product, as the skin of the lips is very vulnerable and sensitive.
- Moisturizers, nourishing... These include the well-known hygienic lipstick. It can be applied in the morning, leaving the house, and repeat the procedure again, if necessary. Balms are also considered moisturizers and nourishing agents, they make lips softer and give them a pleasant shine.
- Protective. Decorative cosmetics cope with this function. But if used on a daily basis, the ingredients in the lipstick literally clog the pores of the lips. Therefore, before applying lipstick or gloss, you need to treat your lips with a hygienic product.
But besides these basic products, there are also cosmetics that help to visually reduce or enlarge lips. There are also means with the help of which you can not worry for a long time about the lips being beautiful, bright, well-groomed. An example of such a product is tint.

What is tint?
This is not gloss or lipstick, it is a separate category of lip cosmetics. Tint is a pigmented liquid fluid (mousse or gel also happens, but less often), which will give the lips a light, maximally natural shade. The main difference between tint and gloss and lipstick is the natural shade.... One gets the impression that you have no makeup on, you just ate a couple of cherries, and a light, neat, visually pleasing mark remains on your lips.
5 main theses about tint.
- Each such product contains a lot of coloring pigment. This pigment seems to be imprinted on the skin, and such a juicy shade remains on the skin for up to 10 hours.
- There are also caring ingredients in the tint, but not at all in the same proportions as in lipstick or balm. Tints dry out the skin, so it needs extra care.
- Although the shade of the tint is almost always translucent, it is quickly absorbed into the skin and remains stable for a long time, all day long.
- This tool is applied in just a couple of seconds, there is no need to draw contours or apply several layers.
- The tint incredibly refreshes the face and makes your look light, natural and charming.
There is also a small "but": in addition to the fact that tints dry the skin, these ultra-long-term products are not so easy to wash off.
For example, you will wash off the tint for a long time with plain water, but a two-phase lotion will cope with this quickly.

Lip gloss - how to choose?
Gloss traditionally remains in the top of the most bought cosmetics. It allows you to give your lips a seductive juiciness and slightly increase their volume. In the composition of the gloss, lanolin, wax, paraffin, as well as various vegetable oils and vitamins are almost always present.
What quality gloss should be:
- lumps and grains in this product should not be initially;
- the product must have a thick consistency;
- there can be no signs of damage on the package.
The expiration date is also worth paying attention to. But try not to overuse: even if you use gloss sparingly, you should not use it for a whole year.
Try to change your gloss or lipstick at least every six months.

What is lip cream for?
There are different versions of these products. For example, some creams are designed strictly for care and moisturizing. They are not decorative, but ultimately return a healthy color and an even, fresh texture to the lips. There is medicated creams, who are prescribed to cope, for example, with the herpes virus.
Finally, there are creams contributing to the increase in the volume of the lips. It can be a hyaluronic filler cream, or a cream that causes blood to flow to the surface of the skin. If you are hesitant to resort to beauty injections, such products can increase the volume without sacrifice.

What should be the right lipstick?
The leading role in the choice of lipstick is still played by the color of the product. But this is not the only selection criterion. Be sure to evaluate the type of lipstick, read its composition. You need to choose the tone with a professional: take a consultation from a makeup artist once, and you will know which tones suit you and which ones should be avoided.
If the lipstick does not contain glycerin, it is better for your skin. And if you want to be fashionable and sparkle at parties, take a look at the ombre lipstick. It is better to take this cosmetic product in case of an evening make-up, if you like to draw attention to your lips. These lipsticks are two or three layers.
Sticks in most products have a clear separation, so you can use either one lipstick color or 2 or 3 shades at once.

You can challenge this rating, add your favorite tools to it, but if you take the arithmetic mean, these brands are ultimately among the leaders. The skin around the mouth, like the skin around the eyes, is prone to early aging. It is necessary to pay attention to these sensitive, vulnerable areas from the age of 25. Start with a gentle, not very intense treatment, increasing the frequency of using special products with age.
Stay beautiful!

Beautiful.
Thanks a lot for the great article. I wanted to warn all girls against the Apply & Shine brand. It spoils the lips and has no effect. Used several products, everyone was very upset.
Love Vivienne Sabo and Bourjois! Very nice and high quality. Compared to the Apply & Shine brand, it is sticky and hard on the lips. I contacted them for a refund - a refusal.
