Signs of ageing appear on every part of our body, including our lips. The skin on your lips is very delicate and if you notice wrinkles appear on your lips, do not freak out. Turns out, ageing is not the only reason that causes lip wrinkles -  smoking, UV exposure and constant lip movements are also to be blamed.

But no matter what the cause, we are here to help you get rid of lip wrinkles. First things first, stop smoking because smoking creates prominent creases that are difficult to get rid of. However, if you do not smoke then follow these three steps below to get soft, supple and younger-looking lips.

Other than external hydration and prevention, staying internally hydrated is also important. Drink plenty of water every day, eat fruits and vegetables with high water content to keep your skin plump and youthful. Your lips and hands are the first areas to show signs of dehydration.
