Are your dry, flaky and dark lips the cause of your low confidence levels? This is not an uncommon issue. We spend hours daily on our skincare routine and splurge on skincare products but often tend to ignore the same when it comes to our lips. Very thin as compared to our facial skin, our lips made up of 16 layers that need the utmost attention and care. Keeping in mind our hectic lifestyles, we came up with a lip care routine for healthy and beautiful lips. Read on to find out how you should be spending five minutes of your day every morning.

Cleanse

Mix an equal amount of coconut milk and rose water to form a natural lip cleanser. Massage this mixture on your lips for 2-3 minutes every morning for smooth and soft lips. You could also mix baby oil in the mixture once a while for a little extra pampering.

Exfoliate

Make a lip scrub by mixing equal amounts of lemon juice, powdered sugar, yogurt and tomato juice. Add a pinch of turmeric to this mixture. Gently exfoliate your lips with this scrub for about a minute before washing it off with water. This removes any dead skin and tan and brightens your lips when used daily.

Moisturise

All of us love a little lip balm before stepping out. We rely on ‘Lip Love’ by Lakmé, which is a combination of care and colour. It not only hydrates and moisturises our lips with its creamy inner core but also comes in four variants with SPF 15 - Cherry, Strawberry, Peach and Vanilla that add a pop of colour to our everyday look. Hello, beautiful lips!
