Healthy skin makes your lips soft and pink. But the sun, lack of water, smog, and harsh lip products can dry out your lips, darken them, and crack them. While chemical lip products can help restore moisture, fade color, and keep your lips smooth and soft, natural remedies can do it all better. With simple DIY lip care tips, you can naturally get pink, healthy-looking lips.
Exfoliate your skin with a sugar and honey scrub
Exfoliating your lips will make them softer and smoother by removing dead skin cells. Mix a teaspoon of sugar with half a teaspoon of honey to make a natural lip scrub. Massage gently for two minutes, then rinse off to help exfoliate dry, flaky lips. Exfoliating your lips two to three times a week will keep them soft and prevent them from drying out.
Moisturize your skin with ghee or coconut oil
Pure creams like coconut oil and ghee (clarified butter) can help heal and nourish dry lips. Apply a few drops to your lips before bed to keep them hydrated and prevent chapped lips. These natural oils also contain vitamins and essential fatty acids that help restore the natural color and softness of your lips.
Use aloe vera to stay hydratedAloe vera is known for its healing and moisturizing properties. Applying fresh aloe vera gel to your lips can help heal dry and irritated lips, making them soft and smooth. Aloe vera also contains essential vitamins that help heal damaged lip skin and restore their natural pink color.
How to Naturally Whiten Your Skin With Lemon and Honey
Honey keeps your lips hydrated and lemon helps lighten dark lips as it is a natural whitening agent. Applying honey and a few drops of lemon juice to your lips, leaving it on for 10 minutes and then rinsing it off can remove the colour. If you apply this treatment daily, dark lips will gradually become lighter and their natural colour will come out.
Milk lip balm and rose petals
Rose petals contain natural colouring agents that make the lips beautiful, while milk nourishes them. Soak rose petals in milk for a few hours, grind them into a paste and apply it to your lips. This will naturally soften them and make them pink. If used regularly, this remedy can give your lips a beautiful pink colour.
Beetroot lip balm for healthy pink lips
Beetroot contains a natural red colouring agent that can make your lips appear pink. If you rub fresh slices of beetroot on your lips or apply beetroot juice to your lips before going to bed, your lips will appear slightly pink. The vitamins and antioxidants in beetroot also ensure that your lips remain healthy and soft.
Keep your lips hydrated and naturally soft
One of the main causes of dry and dark lips is not drinking enough water. Drinking at least 8-10 glasses of water a day will help you stay hydrated and prevent dry, cracked lips. Fresh juices and herbal teas can also help keep your lips soft and plump.
Don’t smoke or drink too much coffee
