Smoking

Smoking can cause a lack of circulation and lead to chapped lips and even wrinkles. Yikes!

No SPF

Wearing an SPF (sun protection factor) on your lips is vital because if you don’t, they’ll get sunburnt and dry out.

Parabens

Parabens are present in most commercial lipsticks, and can be very damaging to the delicate skin on your lips.

Fragrance

Fragrances of any kind are also present in a lot of lipsticks, and are terribly drying.

Camphor And Menthol

Yup, these two ingredients that are found in most lip care products are actually really drying!

Dry Air

Dry air created when you switch on the air conditioner will leave your lips feeling very dehydrated.
