Probably every woman would like her lips to be beautiful and seductive.
But some habits lead to a completely opposite effect, and after 30 years, lips begin to age.
Here are the most common mistakes that the fair sex makes - make sure you are not one of them.
Licking lips
As a result, the skin of the lips begins to peel and become cracked.
The reason is that there are many bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. They get on the skin along with saliva and lead to dry lips, and sometimes even to small cramps.
Wrong makeup
Inappropriate lip cosmetics often dry out the skin, just like exposure to ultraviolet light.
If you don't want the amount of elastin and collagen in your skin to decrease, which inevitably leads to photoaging and early wrinkles, use lip products with SPF in the summer.
Lack of care
Lips also need care in the autumn and winter – to prevent them from cracking, lubricate them with nourishing balms with a thick texture and oil in the composition. They will help you protect your skin from cold and wind.
Bad habits
Smoking causes premature aging of the skin and the appearance of wrinkles around the mouth. This is due to the nicotine and tar contained in tobacco smoke.
Toxins, entering the body, are converted into free radicals, provoke cell mutation and accelerate aging.
For reference
The lips are paired horizontal skin-muscle folds surrounding the entrance to the oral cavity on the face of humans and some animal species – the upper lip (labium superius) and the lower lip (labium inferius).
