How to cure dry lips in the winter

When the temperature drops, it’s not just our hands and face that feel the effects. The harsh weather can wreck havoc on our skin and as soon as the freezing weather hits, our lips tend to have all the moisture zapped out of them. Cue flaky patches, chapping, soreness – you get the idea.

It’s not something you have to just deal with though, and believe it or not, there are many more options than just layering a lip balm on your lips to help keep them moisturised and hydrated. With so many pout-perfecting treatments out there that are all dying for a place on your lips, we’ve broken it down to make the choice easier for you.  

At first glance, CODE Beautiful’s Lip Intense Plumper may just look like a normal lip plumper, but let me tell you, it is SO much more than that. Packed with hyaluronic acid and coconut oil, this product delivers such an intense hit of hydration that the results are a little like magic.  

What causes dry lips?  

Dry lips usually occur due to a lack of hydration, so as a starting point, drinking lots of water is really important. They can also be caused by the cold weather, the skin on our lips tends to get thinner when it’s cold outside, especially at this time of year.  

How can I prevent and treat dry lips?  

To keep your lips smooth and hydrated, simply apply CODE LIP on a regular basis. The hyaluronic acid will lock in moisture to keep your lips hydrated while the coconut oil will help repair chapped or cracked lips to leave your lips feeling smooth and supple.  

What to look for in a great lip product?  

A great lip product should be packed with hydrating and moisturising properties. So look out for ingredients like Hyaluronic acid, Coconut Oil and Sweet Almond Oil.
