Happy Saturday!
This is a short post to share with you what I do to fight one of the ugliest looks, I mean dry chappy lips :P
I should know how difficult this is when you have a winter which is 6 months long! Cold outside and heated rooms inside do not help the skin at all, and make ti loose all its hydration, this is specially true for the delicate skin of the lips.
As I have the driest lips on Earth, and no matter how much I drink and how many times a day I apply lipbalm, nothing seems to help. Or, rather, nothing SEEMED to help. Until I put these two to work together: A sugar scrub from Lush (this is the delicious "Popcorn" but there are others as delicious!) and a thick lipbalm that I use as a "lip mask" and nothing has resulted better for me as Nuxe Reve de miel lip balm. Ever since my beloved friend Christine has gifted me with this lipbalm I kept using it this way. It was a revelation for me! Thank you my dear Christine :)
So, I scrub my lips daily. Yes, daily, slightly and gently but daily. Before bed, as I check the last time my laptop I scrub my lips and then apply a thick layer of Nuxe reve de miel, and go to bed. I can't begin to tell you what a difference it has made in the way my lips look and feel. Not only I can wear matte lipstick again but also my lips do not crack anymore leaving me with injures that took days to heal.
So, this was my "hapy-lips" routine, which is yours?
Have a lovely weekend!
Love,
Nati
I love Lush Lip Scrub, I got the ont with Bubbelgum...;-)
ReplyDeleteI got that one too! but it is almost finished :)
DeleteIs a place for me in a dry lips club? :D
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, welcome to the club :)
DeleteMe alegro de que hayas encontrado un producto que te ayude a cuidar los labios! Creo que es muy importante protegerlos, a veces solo pensamos en la piel y...
ReplyDeleteUn saludo!

sí es cierto, luego aplicas maquillaje en los labios todos despeluchados y queda horrible!
DeleteEs un producto muy bueno para cuidar los labios, me encanta lush, besos
ReplyDeleteTengo dos sorteo por si te apetece apuntarte.
Gracias! iré a echar un ojo :)
DeleteGreat to hear that it works for you! I've actually been blessed with not so dry lips in general. I usually scrub my lips after a shower like once a week, and that's enough. :)
ReplyDeleteOh great! that is what I do in summer, but winter hates my lips, haha.
DeleteI really like that lip scrub
ReplyDeleteBut the bubblegum is my favorite flavour

Bubblegum was my fave, I got this for a change and now I like it better!
DeleteI have read a lot of amazing review on Nuxe lip balm but have yet to try it myself. Must really pick it up to try.

Emma, tus labios se ven perfectos, seguro que no lo necesitas!
Deletebesitos :)
I don't like Lush's Popcorn scrub (salty, brrr!) but I do like the Reve de Miel a lot. It's such a treat!
ReplyDeletehaha, the salty taste is what I like the most! and I couldn't agree more about the balm :)
DeleteI like scrub by Lush, but I never try that and your lip balm :D Anyway, I use scrub (at moment) one time for week but sometime I think that my lips need a scrub everyday! :-P
ReplyDeleteI know Melody, I use scrub once a week in Summer but now with the changing season I need it everyday, the this sugar scrubs are very gentle!
DeleteIo sono un disastro, non scrubbo le labbra quasi mai, sebbene io abbia i prodotti per farlo e anche se le idrato sempre con cura. Non ho particolari problemi di pellicine o secchezza, ma un bel trattamento ogni tanto dovrei farlo.
ReplyDeleteCristina io non mi farei un problema, se non ne hai bisogno, è meglio così! Quando ero in Argentina non avevo questi problemi (dico per il clima così humido tutto l'anno!! ma anche perché ero più giovane :/ )
DeleteOhhh Rêve de miel is one of my favourite lip balms! Totally agree!
ReplyDelete:) haha, I'm not bringing anything new here, I stay with those staples that work!
Delete:) haha, I'm not bringing anything new here, I stay with those staples that work!
DeleteI love the Popcorn scrub from Lush!
ReplyDeleteit tastes and smells just like popcorn! so cool :)
DeleteQue raro pensé que había comentado, siempre he estado curiosa de probar algún producto de lush, parecen excelentes.
ReplyDeleteson muy buenos y naturales, y también cruelty free. Creo q te gustarían. No tienes Lush por ahí?
DeleteI adore lush lip scrubs! I still have one from a really long time ago and it's still in great condition but it doesn't sell anymore; vanilla and chocolate. It works wonders!! If my lips are for whatever reason in awful condition I tend to use aloe vera cream on it. Weird, I know, but very soothing and instantly repairs lips. Definitely recommend!
ReplyDelete- all my love, Hira, http://www.theartofexisting.co.uk/ xx
Hi hira! it's nice to hear, I'm also a lush fan, and Aloe Vera fan. As southamerican we put Aloe to everything and anything. my granny has a huge plant and we use it directly from it! Here in Europe is not so easily available and more expensive too :/
Deleteonly lip balms with all natural ingredients are working for me :D
ReplyDeleteI'm quite lucky and don't often get dry lips. But I always use a lip balm or if they are bad, EA 8 Hour Cream! :-)
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I don't really have a routine when it comes to lips.. maybe because I don't have many problems.. But this looks like a nice product and surely it's worth trying :-)
