Winter Lip Protection

Fall and winter seasons can bring on harsh weather for the skin, particularly for the lips, as they are commonly neglected. Caring for the lips is essential, especially if you want them to stay full and beautiful.

Exfoliating the lips is best to do 1-2 times weekly; I suggest gentle products like Pevonia Youthful Lip Retinol Serum or Yonka Alpha Contour.

In addition to regular exfoliation, hydrating the lips will keep them from becoming chapped and dry during the cold weather. Peptide Lip Therapy from PCA Skin provides anti-aging benefits as well as protection against free radical damage. La Roche-Posay Ceralip Lip Repair Cream enriches the lips with lipids. this product works especially well for sensitive skin and Accutane users.

Love Your Lips

Getting lips that are easy to love is easier than ever. In both the summer and the winter, lips can become dry, cracked and rough. Soften the lips with Colorescience Lip Exfoliator, which helps to remove the dead skin cells that accumulate on the lips. Add a dose of moisture with Lip Treatment from Kinerase or Caudalie Lip Conditioner. Protect the lips against sun damage year-round with Jane Iredale Lip Drink, which provides broad-spectrum SPF 15. And if you're the type who likes some color on your lips, try Mix & Match Lip Kit. Featuring three paraben-free glosses, this kit moisturizes and softens lips to seal the deal.
