The 5 best lip balms to look irresistible
A smile is one of the best things in this world, right? But to make it look beautiful we have to take care of our lips, which is not an easy task, especially during the cold season. That's why today we're going to tell you which are the 5 best lip balms to make your smile look irresistible.
WHY USE LIP BALM
Just as we take care of the skin on our face, hands and feet, we should also pay attention to the skin on our lips. Although it may not seem like it, it is up to 5 times thinner than the skin on the rest of the face, which is why it suffers and becomes dehydrated more easily.
In addition, they do not have sebaceous glands (which synthesize sebum and moisturize the skin, providing it with antioxidants and protecting it from germs) or melanin. They are completely unprotected!
This is the main reason why you should use a good lip balm, to moisturize your lips and keep them in good condition. By applying it two to three times a day, you will prevent cracks, small wrinkles or dead skin from appearing .
TYPES OF LIP BALM
Not all lip balms are created equal. There are some that are more limited to the aesthetic part, such as tinted lip balms, widely used in Korean cosmetics . They give a very nice tone, but of course, they do not hydrate or protect our lips as much.
To ensure that a lip balm will moisturize your lips, make sure that its ingredients include essential oils such as jojoba oil or olive oil , and natural ingredients such as beeswax or shea butter .
You can also protect them from the sun's UV rays if the product has SPF50 (sun protection factor).
