Home remedies for dry and cracked lips
In the harsh cold of winter, we have to take special care of our skin, especially our lips. If you are a little careless, your lips become dry and lifeless. Sometimes the consequences become so severe that crusts and bleeding start coming out from the lips. If your lips have become crusty then try some of these best remedies.
Try these home remedies to prevent chapped lips:
-
Apply ghee: If the lips are chapping a lot then apply ghee before sleeping at night. The healthy fatty acids in ghee deeply moisturize, heal cracks, and form a protective layer that prevents dryness. Besides, it also provides natural exfoliation and reduces pigmentation making the lips soft, full and healthy. You can apply it straight, leave it on overnight, or mix it with honey for a nourishing scrub.
-
Milk Cream: If you do not have ghee, you can also use milk cream. The fats and lactic acid in the cream deeply moisturize and gently exfoliate the lips, leaving them soft. Apply a small amount before bed and leave it on overnight, as it forms a protective layer, helps heal cracks, and can also reduce lip darkening over time.
-
Honey: Use honey to get rid of dry lips. Its humectant properties draw moisture, while its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties heal cracks, soothe redness, and protect against infection, making it a natural, nourishing balm that can be applied directly.
-
coconut oil: Coconut oil is great for chapped lips as its fatty acids deeply moisturize the lips and provide antimicrobial benefits, locking in moisture and preventing dryness, leaving lips soft, supple and healthy. You can apply it directly, use it as a mask at night.
