As the air starts to lose its moisture, our skin, hands, and lips follow suit. Sure, you should restock your desk, purse, and bedroom with Chapstick. But to score truly gorgeous, soft, touch-me lips, try one or all of these brilliant chapped lip cures.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
1. Before you wash your face, apply a balm to your lips. Your cleanser may actually be drying out your lips—both salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide disrupt your pH balance and can cause chapping.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
2. Use almond oil. The hypoallergenic moisturizer pops up in Kiehl’s Lip Blam #1 ($7, kiehls.com), which also contains free radical-fighters vitamins A and E.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
3. Turn on a humidifier at night—it helps keeps your lips (and skin) moisturized.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
4. For chapped and sore lips, slice up a cucumber into thin pieces and leave them over lips for five minutes (try it while you’re watching TV). It helps rehydrates your lips and feels fantastic.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
5. Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate. Use a lip exfoliator like ILIA Balmy Nights Lip Exfoliator ($26, iliabeauty.com) or make an at-home paste with sugar and honey. For very sensitive lips, use a clean, soft toothbrush and brush back and forth.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
6. Don’t lick your lips. We lick our dry lips to add some moisture, but it actually dries them out even more. Your saliva contains acids that break down food, but they also irritate your lips. Plus, continuously licking will remove any natural oils you have on your lips.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
7. Breathe through your nose. Something as little as breathing through your mouth can actually dry out your lips.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
8. Got flaky lips? Resist the urge to pick at them. Instead, soften them with lip balm and exfoliate the flakes off.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
9. Use sunscreen to prevent burned, chapped lips. Already chapped? Skip the SPF so it doesn’t irritate the sensitive skin.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
10. Another ingredient to look for: Shea butter, which nourishes and moisturizes. Try Eraclea Ever-moist Lip Balm ($16, eracleaskincare.com), which gives lips a silky smooth finish and subtle shine.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
11. Chapped lips will heal best when they’re moist, so stick to lip balms and skip lip waxes.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
12. On the flip side, if your lips are looking good, use a beeswax when you’re going to be outside for a while (beeswax works as a barrier against dehydration). Try Burt’s Bees Beeswax lip balm ($4, burtsbees.com)—it seals in moisture and has a nice peppermint taste.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
13. Stick to lipsticks with conditioners like vitamin E, macadamia oil, and shea butter.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
14. Take a pass on matte lip colors in favor of moisturizing lipsticks. If you must go matte (hey, it’s a hot trend this season!), apply a lip conditioner before. Our favorite—Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Lipsaver Treatment Primer ($19, sephora.com) with coconut oil.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
15. Drink water. Hydrating from the inside will help keep your lips from getting dry.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
16. Use a toothpaste that doesn’t contain synthetic flavors—they can cause an allergic reaction, making your lips flaky. A great one is Squigle, a paste that’s free of ingredients that can irritate your skin.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
17. If your lips are chapped, take a pass on drinking orange juice, eating grapefruit, and putting any other citrus fruits near your lips—they can cause more dryness.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
18. Rub on aloe vera. It helps relieve the pain and heals small cuts that occur when your lips are chapped or burned.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
19. The oldest trick in the book—petroleum jelly. Vaseline Lip Therapy Rosy Lips Lip Balm ($4, cvs.com) is super moisturizing, plus it has a luxe rosy flavor we’re obsessed with.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
20. Sometimes fragrances can cause allergic reactions. If you suspect your lips might be suffering because of a scented balm, stick to one without strong scents or flavors.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
21. Say goodbye to those hot wings for a while, because yes, spicy foods can dry out your lips.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
22. Ditto for salty treats. (Insert sad face.)</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
23. Wear a scarf over your mouth—wind is a biggie when it comes to chapping.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
24. Suffering from really bad chapping? Look for a treatment with ceramides, which help to restore the skin barrier.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">
25. Nothing working? You may be suffering from an allergic reaction. See your dermatologist to be sure!</span></div>

There is absolutely nothing sexy (or comfortable) about chapped lips. That's why we keep our pockets, purses, and nightstands stocked with an arsenal of conditioning lip treatments. And you can trust we've tried every product under the sun: medicated balms, do-it-all salves, all-natural scrubs—heck, we've even slapped on masks just for the mouth. These are the 40 that we found our lips can't live without.</div>

Yes to Coconut Lip Oil</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This one's a Best of Beauty award winner—and for good reason. The silky oil won't disappear from lips the way other balms do. Instead, it leaves them pampered and glossy with a healthy, stick-free shine.</div>

"This oil is so heavy-duty that you can slather it on before bed and still feel it on your lips the next morning. That's actually my favorite time to use it, since it's a little sticky. Plus, the gold applicator tip looks incredibly fancy."</div>

"This is one of those products I could keep smearing on my lips all day like a freak because it feels so slick, smells like vanilla, and makes my lips super shiny while hydrating them at the same time. Something about the whole experience and effect on the lips reminds me of my vanilla lip gloss days."</div>

Lip Balm</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
By Terry Baume de Rose Lip Balm</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This beauty editor favorite is formulated with ceramides and shea butter that help repair lips' natural moisture barrier, addressing the problem for the long term instead of just temporarily. It also layers well with lipstick, keeping lips moisturized without causing it to slip and slide around.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An oldie but a goodie, this iconic formula (which contains petrolatum, menthol, and camphor) has been soothing cracked lips for almost 80 years. One application, and it's no surprise why we keep going back to it every winter.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These 99 percent natural lip balms are as cute as they are effective and fit nicely in the palm of your hand. The balm feels superlight but keeps lips smooth and hydrated thanks to jojoba oil, shea butter, and vitamin E.</div>

"I love this by way of my boyfriend. He has a tube in every room in our apartment, which is so convenient because whenever I see one I'll just grab it and run a swipe over my lips (OK, that also makes me lazy, but I prefer "efficient"). It's just a simple, nice lip balm. And between my dad, brother, boyfriend, and guy friends, it's pretty much the unanimous favorite for dudes because it's zero percent shiny and doesn't taste like candy."</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
"This is a cocoa butter–infused version of their Lip Therapy—supposedly it comes in a big size, but I've only ever found the miniature jar. Either way, it's fantastic. It has slightly more heft than just straight-up Vaseline, and it doesn't melt down and feel oily the way the original version does. I keep one stashed in my living room because I need a lip balm within reach at all times."</div>

"Makeup artists love this balm for their male clients because it's exceptionally hydrating but doesn't leave any shine behind. After hearing that, I had to give it a try, and of course now I'm hooked. I use it when I'm wearing a bold lipstick. I put it on before I start my makeup and let it settle as I apply base, blush, and eye makeup. Once I'm ready for lipstick, my mouth is perfectly prepped."</div>

"These are cute little balms that come in a variety of yummy scents, including sweet orange vanilla and lavender mint. I like that they're natural, inexpensive, and great for reapplication throughout the day. They're effective but don't make you feel like you just made out with sealing wax."</div>

These pretty tinted balms are a beauty editor staple, and it isn't hard to understand why. They feel rich and moisturizing on lips, and depending on swipe strength, the color can range from a sheer tint to a juicier, more saturated sheen.</div>

Here's one that's perfect for an at-home spa day because it requires some patience—you have to carefully adhere the jelly film to lips and let it sit for 45 minutes.

We're suckers for the adorable mini pot, but really it's what's inside that counts. The main ingredient is argan oil, so it's incredibly moisturizing, and it has a delicious fruity scent that isn't the least bit cloying.

There’s no doubt—naturally rosy lips are an appealing feature of a woman’s beauty or a man’s good looks. So, many people who have dark lips want to lighten them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some of the main causes of dark lips are excessive exposure to direct sunlight, an allergic reaction, use of low-quality cosmetics, chewing tobacco, excessive smoking, high caffeine intake, and hormonal imbalances.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are many ways to lighten dark lips that don’t require buying expensive products or treatments. Natural home remedies can effectively lighten your lips. The time it takes for these remedies to work varies, so use them as long as needed to achieve the results you want.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Lemon</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lemon is often used to treat dark skin patches and spots, and you can use it to naturally lighten dark lips, too. The bleaching property in lemon works well as a simple yet powerful remedy for dark lips.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Squeeze a lemon and apply the juice on your lips before going to bed. Follow this simple remedy daily for one to two months.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Take a thin slice of lemon, sprinkle a bit of sugar on top and rub it on your lips. It will exfoliate dead cells so new, fresh skin can appear. Use this remedy daily for a few weeks.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Alternatively, you can prepare a mixture of one-half teaspoon each of lemon juice, glycerin and honey. Apply it on your lips before going to bed. Do this daily until you see positive results.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Rose</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rose has three main medicinal properties: soothing, cooling, and moisturizing. Rose will also help add a natural pink tint to your dark lips.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mix one drop of rose water with a few drops of honey and apply it on your lips. Do this three or four times a day.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mix one tablespoon of rose petal paste and one teaspoon of butter, honey, or milk cream. Apply it on your lips and gently scrub. Follow this remedy two times a week.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Soak a few rose petals in raw milk for one hour, and then grind the mixture to make a paste. Add one-half teaspoon of honey and a pinch of saffron to it. Apply the paste on your lips and leave it on for about 15 minutes. Do this two times a day.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Olive Oil</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Olive oil can also be used to make your lips lively and vibrant. Olive oil contains many essential nutrients to nurture your lips and its moisturizing property will make them soft and beautiful.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apply a few drops of extra virgin olive oil on your lips and massage it gently. Do this daily before going to bed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Alternatively, mix one-half teaspoon of sugar and a few drops of extra virgin olive oil. Scrub your lips gently with this mixture once a week. This simple recipe will restore your natural lip color and shine within a month or two.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Exfoliating your lips regularly will remove dead skin cells that can make them look dark and dull. Sugar works as a great exfoliating agent.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Blend three tablespoons of granulated sugar and two tablespoons of butter to make a thick paste. Scrub your lips gently with the paste. Do this once a week to restore your natural lip color and shine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can also make a scrub by mixing one teaspoon of granulated sugar, one teaspoon of honey, and one-half teaspoon of almond oil. Use it to scrub your lips once a week.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Alternatively, you can simply mix some sugar with cold cream and use it to scrub your lips gently before going to bed. Do this once a week.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Beetroot</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another readily available ingredient that can help you get pink lips is beetroot. Beetroot has natural bleaching properties that can lighten dark lips.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apply fresh beetroot juice on your lips before going to bed. Wash it off the next morning. The natural red color of the juice will turn your dark lips rosy. Do this daily before going to bed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can mix equal amounts of beetroot juice and carrot juice and apply it on your lips. Massage gently and leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing it off with lukewarm water. Do this once daily for a week or two.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. Pomegranate</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pomegranate is ideal for treating dark lips. It can nourish and moisturize dry and dehydrated lips as well as help restore their natural pink color.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mix together one tablespoon of crushed pomegranate seeds and a little milk cream and rose water. Apply this paste on your lips and gently scrub for a few minutes.Wash it off with lukewarm water. Do this once daily.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mix equal amounts of pomegranate juice, beetroot juice and carrot juice. Apply it on your dark lips once daily.</div>
