Dry face, dry hands, dry lips, dry everywhere in autumn. Even the most hydrated beautiful girl will become a "Lao Ganma"...Dry face, dry hands, after applying more cream and hand cream, it will be significantly improved, but the most stubborn thing is dry mouth.
Some people always subconsciously lick their lips when they encounter dry mouth, but the more they lick, the more they licked, the drier they became; some people would drink water in autumn and winter, but in the end they found that except for running to the toilet all day long, their lips were still very dry; some people would carry lip balm with them, and they would apply a thick layer as soon as their lips dries. The lips were bulingbuling throughout autumn and winter...
I believe many friends were deeply touched by this. Fighting against dry mouth is an important task for many people in autumn and winter. However, choosing the wrong lip balm and using the wrong lip balm will not only not improve the dry mouth, but may also cause cheilitis !
Why does the lips peel when autumn comes?
In autumn, many people will have skin peeling on their lips, including the lips of some people with relatively high skin moisture content, which cannot escape dryness and skinning. Everyone is very troubled by this.
The reasons for lip peeling start from the particularity of lip skin. Compared with other exposed skin on the body, the skin on the lips is thinner than these areas. Just compare the skin around the lips and the mouth, the thickness of the lips is only one-third of the thickness of the surrounding skin.
In addition, except that it is thinner than other parts, there are almost no sebaceous glands and sweat pores in the skin of the lips. Therefore, it is impossible to secrete sebum and moisture with moisturizing effects like the skin of other parts.
The capillaries distributed in the lips are also richer than the skin in other parts, and they are more likely to develop chapped, bleeding, etc. Is the more
lip balm the better?
The most commonly used lip balm in life is mainly divided into two types: rod-filled and canned. The main ingredient of lip balm is to extract oils and waxes from automatic plants. Whether it is oil or wax, it is a function of replenishing moisture to lock in water, ensuring the moisturization of lips, reducing the evaporation of moisture, and preventing dryness and cracking.
Many people believe that when applying lip balm, applying lip balm thick will make the hydrating effect better and the water locking effect will be longer. Some people even apply lip balm on the skin around their lips when using it, thinking that this can moisturize with the skin around their mouth. Moreover, you have to carry lip balm with you every day, apply it many times a day, and apply it again as long as your lips are dry.
However, are these usages really correct?
In fact, the method of over-reliance and excessive use of lip balm is wrong.
Although the glycerol contained in lipstick has a certain water absorption effect and can absorb water molecules in the air and make the skin moisturize, if used in a very dry season and there are fewer water molecules in the air, glycerol may absorb water in the skin, which will make the skin dryer and even dehydrated over time.
It can be seen that in the very dry autumn and winter, excessive use of lip balm may be counterproductive. If you really want to use lip balm, it is recommended to use it in a room with a humidifier, which can replenish hydration and lock water.
lip balm is wrong, which may cause cheilitis!
According to statistics, 90% of patients with cheilitis are female , and among female cheilitis patients, more than half of the causes of are allergic caused by lipstick contact.
When choosing lip balm, many women prefer to buy some lipstick products with aromatic smell and bright colors. In order to attract the eyes of female consumers, merchants may add additives such as aromatic hydrocarbons to their lipsticks. Some users have allergies after contacting these additives, which leads to contact cheilitis.
lip balm is best to apply vertically?
After applying lipstick for so many years, the method has always been wrong! I believe many people don’t know that the method of applying lipstick directly from left to right or from right to left is wrong. The correct method of applying should be applied vertically.
Since the skin texture of the lips is vertical, when applying lip balm, it is best to follow the skin texture of the lip balm, so that the lip balm can be applied to the texture gap, so that the moisturizing and water-locking effect of the lip balm can be maximized. Therefore, when applying lip balm in the future, remember to apply vertically from top to bottom, from inside to outside.
