Addressing Dryness
Every day, moisture evaporates from your lips. If that hydration isn't replaced, the tissue can become dehydrated, leading to dry lips. Sun exposure, dry air and other environmental factors can cause moisture loss and lip dryness. Moisturizing lip treatments can be used to address dryness. These products often contain emollients that instantly add hydration. In addition, moisturizing lip treatments may feature humectants that bind hydration to the lips throughout the day and occlusive ingredients that seal in moisture to reduce the risk of future dryness.
Soothing Chapped Lips
Dryness, wind burn and other factors can lead to lip irritation known as chapping. When your lips are chapped, they typically appear red and raw and may feel painful. Severe chapping can lead to cracking and splitting of the lips. Lip treatments for chapped lips are intended to soothe discomfort and promote healing, so that your lips can recover from irritation more quickly.
Minimizing Signs of Aging
Sun damage and the natural aging process can result in fine lines appearing on the lips. Anti-aging lip treatments can be used to address these flaws. Some anti-aging lip treatments use antioxidant ingredients to fight the free radicals that drive the aging process. Others contain ingredients that make the lips appear fuller, decreasing the look of lines, so that signs of aging are less prominent. You can also find lip treatments that feature ingredients that may help support collagen production to promote firmer, more youthful looking lips.
Protecting Your Lips
Just like the rest of your face, your lips need protection from the sun to remain in the best of health. The harsh ultraviolet energy found in sunlight can burn the lips and contribute to long term damage. Using lip treatments with SPF protection during the day can minimize the harmful effects of the sun. SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor and represents how much ultraviolet B the sunscreens found in lip treatments filter out.
