Lips Are Made for Smiling

With the onset of cold weather, the delicate skin of the lips begins to noticeably suffer: it dries out, gets chapped, and small cracks appear. Enhanced natural care will help restore the lost beauty of the lips.

Lips are one of the most noticeable and attractive parts of the face. Therefore, it is essential to keep them in perfect shape. To understand how to do this, let's list the physiological features of this area.

Lips are one of the most noticeable and attractive parts of the face. Therefore, it is essential to keep them in perfect shape. To understand how to do this, let's list the physiological features of this area.

From a Doctor's Perspective

Dermatologists consider the skin of the lips as a specific anatomical formation - the vermilion border. Being at the boundary between the mucous membrane of the oral cavity and the skin around the mouth, the vermilion border is something in between ordinary skin and mucous membrane. Its bright pink color is explained by the fact that the stratum corneum here is extremely thin and almost transparent. This area is well innervated and very sensitive, while the usual glands found in the rest of the skin - sweat and sebaceous glands - are absent here. Therefore, the skin of the vermilion border lacks a protective lipid film and easily dries out.

The structural features make the vermilion border very vulnerable to adverse external influences. Peeling, cracks, and ulcers easily occur on the lips. Cracks often appear at the corners of the lips (especially in children). From a medical perspective, all inflammatory diseases of the vermilion border are combined under the term "cheilitis." Factors in such cases can include hypothermia, viral infections, excessive sun exposure, smoking, the habit of biting lips during moments of anxiety, and a deficiency of B vitamins, especially B2.

Chronic cheilitis can be associated with dermatological pathology (psoriasis, atopic dermatitis) or caused by serious diseases of the heart, gastrointestinal tract, or thyroid gland. Women often experience allergic cheilitis, which is a reaction to certain components of lipstick. However, meteorological cheilitis, which occurs in response to cold and wind, is found more frequently in men.

So, it makes sense for everyone to take care of their lips and protect them

Another common problem related to the lips is herpes infection, where small painful blisters appear on the lips due to weakened immunity. During the acute period, it is essential to adhere to hygiene rules and avoid touching the lips with fingers. The doctor will recommend the necessary anti-inflammatory ointment (for example, with zinc), a strengthening alkaline diet rich in vitamins, and relaxing exercises, as stress significantly lowers immunity.

The Basis of Natural Care - Oils and Wax

It is clear that the uniqueness of the vermilion border's structure excludes the use of ordinary cream - it will spread on the lips, and some components that are well tolerated by ordinary skin may cause irritation. A cosmetic product for the lips must be very rich in lipid composition and dense in texture to provide the necessary level of softening and hydration. Mass-market lip products often use mineral oils and silicones, which create a film on the lips. It seems that this should retain moisture well, but in the long term, such products actually cause additional drying of the lips. A vicious circle is formed: the more often we apply lip balm, the worse they become.

Completely different sensations arise when using natural lip care products. Their base consists of high-quality plant oils, with the best being so-called butters, which are solid at room temperature and melt upon application to the lips. The primary oils include jojoba and almond oils. Plant waxes are indispensable in lip cosmetics. In nature, they form the thinnest moisture-retaining film on the surface of fruits or leaves to prevent moisture loss, and they work similarly when applied to the skin of the lips. Their action is beautifully complemented by beeswax, which not only prevents lip dryness but also provides the skin with vitamins, natural antibiotics, and immunomodulators.
