Dry Lips –
why are my lips dry?
Does Labello
dry out lips?
Lip balms contain oils and moisturisers that soothe dry skin. They form a barrier on the skin's surface, which locks in moisture and helps protect against harmful substances and environmental stress.
Lips are particularly susceptible to dryness, as they do not contain the sweat and oil glands that the rest of our skin does, so the only way to restore a protective barrier is by using a lip balm.
There is no chance of this process causing further dryness, and applying Labello lip balms is an essential part of a healthy daily lip care routine.What is making my lips
so dry?
You may not realise it, but your lifestyle could be having more of an impact on the health of your lips than you think.
One of the top causes of dry lips is dehydration. The root cause could be not drinking enough water, or cold weather causing your skin to lose moisture.
Other factors include drinking too much alcohol or smoking, licking your lips regularly, eating very spicy or acidic food, or breathing through your mouth instead of your nose.
Making small changes to your lifestyle can really improve the health of your lips – once you see the results, you’ll never want to go back!
