How to Keep Lips Wrinkle-Free

Our faces are the first places that people notice the signs of aging. Wrinkles appear around our eyes, mouths and on our lips. If you take care of your lips, you greatly increase your chances of avoiding lip wrinkles.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Stay out of the sun. Too much sun exposure causes wrinkles to appear on your lips. Limit the time that you sunbathe to keep this from occurring.
2. Use a lip balm with SPF protection. When you are out in the sun, protect your lips by regularly applying a lip balm. Ideally, the lip balm should have a SPF of 15 or higher.
3. Apply a lip treatment before you go to bed at night. These anti-aging lip balms can help reverse the effects of aging. Try the Olay Regenerist Anti-Aging Lip Treatment.
4. Drink a lot of water. If you drink plenty of water, your lips stay hydrated and are less likely to develop wrinkles.
5. Get collagen injections. If all else fails, you can get collagen injections as a way to keep your lips wrinkle free. This method should only be used if you are comfortable with the procedure and the wrinkles have already appeared.

Tips & Warnings

• If you don't have a lip balm with SPF, you can put sunscreen on your lips to protect them from the sun. Place a small amount on your fingertips and smooth it over your lips. Reapply every half an hour.
• Remember to avoid licking your lips. This causes the lips to dry and can actually cause wrinkles to form on the lips.
