How to weather proof your lips and keep them soft and healthy.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • wash cloth
  • vasoline
  • lip balm (I prefer Regeneration Gold Lip Therapy by BeautiControl)
  1. Step 1

    Generously apply a layer of Vaseline to lips.

  2. Step 2

    Use a warm, damp wash cloth to scrub lips in a side to side motion for a minute or two until any dry skin is gently exfoliated away. Repeat approximately once or twice a week or as necessary.

  3. Step 3

    Apply lip balm throughout the day to help protect lips from sun and wind damage.

on 1/15/2009 I am a BeautiControl consultant. E-mail me to find out how to start your own Spa business for only $125 (month of January only, regularly $250!) I make an average $100 a Spa! Not bad for 2 hours of work, huh? tabbycaldwell@att.net or 740.205.6.SPA
SERIOUS INQUIRES ONLY PLEASE!

on 1/9/2008 I think this works better with something that does not contain petroleum.

on 1/6/2008 hi there! yes, adding you as my friend. liked your quote, picture and articles that i read, will get back to them when i have more time. just a suggestion to your article: Carmex works better than vaseline, containing salicylic acid and resorcinol, both chemical (albeit mild in this formula) exfoliaters. After one or two days, you can resume your daily lip product. My favorites is Bryant Rushing Lip Remodeling Treatment and an ancient formula called Rose Balm.
