Having dry and chapped lips can be frustrating. It hurts to laugh, it can bleed and make your lipstick look patchy.
If you have tried almost every lip balm and can’t find a solution, then you need to turn to a few home remedies, which won’t be heavy on the pocket.
Here are some homemade remedies to get rid of dry and chapped lips:
1. Coconut oil: This oil combats inflammation and helps soothe and soften the skin. Rub a small amount onto your lips several times a day.
2. Aloe vera: Squeeze the gel from one fresh aloe leaf and rub onto your lips. Leave it on until it dries and then wash it off. Repeat this process regularly.
3. Honey: It has the power to moisturise and heal. It also has antibacterial powers.
Pro tip: Before moisturising, you can exfoliate your lips with sugar to get rid of the dead skin. Be sure you mix it with an oil so it’s not harsh on the skin.
So, the next time your lips feel dry, try using these natural ingredients to give your lips some TLC!
