Plump lips with a 3-step lipcare routine
Let’s be honest, we all desire this pink, soft and healthy-looking lips:
Our lips skin need special care: they are thin, susceptible to environment conditions, easy to get dry, flaky, chapped, and crack. Nevertheless, we tend to love wearing beautiful lipsticks without having a proper routine to take care of them.
How to keep them look attractive and smooth even when you do not put on your favorite lip colours?
This is a simple but effective routine to do your lipcare:
1. Using lips remover
Almost everybody removes makeup on their face, but then neglect their lips. The reason is, after a day with lots of outdoor activities, like eating and drinking, the lipstick colour is virtually faded out.
Although the colour is hardly seen, it is actually still stay on lips, with chemicals too. This will pile up as days go by, causing many lips problems.
We recommend using a lips remover, to ensure your lips are totally get rid of leftover chemicals.
2. Scrubbing your lips:
Our lips cells also regenerate, just like our faces or bodies skin cells. Dead cells make our lips flaky and chapped, and may be bleed. That’s why when we put on lipsticks, they look uneven, patchy, and do not last long.
