Skin Care, Anti-Aging and Health Tips and Advice
The Three Most Asked Questions About Lip Care
I put together a list of the three most common FAQ’s regarding how to maintain the health and beauty of your lips. Here they are:
Q: My lips are always cracked and dry. What can I do?
A: You can apply Vaseline, then brush gently with a soft toothbrush, or you can use the edge of a damp washcloth. Afterward, apply plenty of lip balm, however, make sure it does NOT contain camphor or menthol as this will make the problem worse with every application.
Q: I get cold sores. What should I do?
A: Cold sores can be stopped in their tracks with over-the-counter treatments containing an active ingredient called aciclovir. The real trick is to apply the treatment as soon as you feel the first tingle. To help reduce attacks, wear an SPF lip balm as the cold sore virus is often triggered by sun exposure.
Q: I get cracks at the corners of my lips. Why does this happen?
A: The most common cause of this is vitamin B deficiency. Eat more wholegrain foods, eggs, red meat, and leafy green vegetables.
