Your lips lack hydration. No matter how often you use lip balm, they still feel like the Sahara dessert. It's not that your lips are flaky, they just feel very, very dry. For you I have this quick tip today!
This is something I found out by accident, but I do it very often. Use your eye cream for your lips! Yes, you read that right. The moisturiser you use on your eyes is perfect to be used on your lips as well. I love using this in the mornings, when I know I have a long day. The cream doesn't leave a greasy layer like lip balm, but it still hydrates your lips and you only need a little! Don't worry, the eye creams are gentle. After all, they take care of your eyes too. Just don't eat it. It doesn't taste as good as most lip balms!
A little extra lovin'
Sometimes when I feel my lips really need a little extra love, I scrub them and after I put a thick layer of eye cream on my lips (when I don't use an oil. I love using that too). Then I go to sleep with this "lip mask". I use Nivea Aqua Sensation (see on the picture).
Even though I love using natural oils on my lips, this is something I find as helpful as the oils I normally use.
Just a quick beauty tip on this beautiful Sunday. So after hydrating the area around your eyes, put what's left on your fingers on your lips!
What is your little secret to keep them lips hydrated?
