7 Things Your Lips Would Love.

One weather we love (and hate) is the cold, harsh, dust settling harmattan. And yes we love it because it’s the one time of year that we take a break off the heat and get to wear our pseudo- winter outfits we’ve saved since last harmattan. None the less, one aspect of our face suffers the most; The lips. So here are 7 things your lips will love and thank you for this harmattan. Starting from number seven:

7. Regular Kissing: Did i just hear you laugh out loud?! Nope, it’s no joke. Studies have shown that there are actually certain health benefits from kissing, like reducing blood pressure*, relieves cramps and headaches*, burns calories* amongst other amazing things.

6. Exfoliate, Exfoliate, Exfoliate: During harmattan, we tend to shed surface skin, giving our lips a dry chapped look. One way to get rid of the dry surface is to exfoliate. Usually just using a soft toothbrush and a layer of petroleum jelly on the lips works like magic. A home- made brown sugar and honey scrub is also a perfect (and tasty) exfoliant.

Carmex

5. Carmex: Some have called it the ‘wonder balm’. A very unassuming product, yet it does the trick. One swipe of this on the lips you’re good to go all day. Contains menthol that soothes and cools, and vitamin E for extra nourishment. Quite on the inexpensive side too.

4. Cover girl Naturaluxe Gloss Balm: A combination of color and shine. A perfect alternative to your regular lipstick. It’s a lot more pigmented than your average lip balm, so if you would like to go off lipsticks during this harmattan period, this girl has got you covered.

Mary Kay Satin Lips® Balm and Mask

3. Mary Kay Satin Lips® Balm and Mask: There’s clearly a rave about this product and why not? It comes in a combo set, the mask you apply first for a few minutes (acts as an exfoliant), rinse off, then the balm goes on next. Apparently your lips become all soft and ‘satin-y’ afterwards. Thumbs up to Mary Kay on this one.

2. Eos Lip Balm Sphere: There’s just something about this eggy looking, colorfully packaged lip balm that makes you want to grab one or to off the rack. These uniquely shaped balms are fun to carry around in your purse. They are tasty, they soften, smoothen and are 100% organic. So if you’ve ever thought of going ‘green’, here is a juicy reason to add to your list.

Maybelline Baby Lips

1. Maybelline Baby Lips: The holy grail of all lip balms available on earth! ( My opinion anyway). This balm does exactly what it was made for. You want baby lips? Maybelline Baby Lips will give you just that. It hydrates the lips up to about 8 hours and has a tinge of color and shimmer as well. Comes in a variety of flavors.
