The most sensitive skin on the face is the lips.

And in cold weather, it is enough to lick them once to get chapped skin.

We'll tell you how to use improvised means to bring delicate skin into order.

Honey

Melt honey in the microwave or in a double boiler and apply to your lips.

It is recommended to repeat the procedure several times a day and keep honey on the lips for 15-20 minutes until completely healed.

Oil

If you don’t have any cosmetic oils on hand, such as jojoba or coconut oil, you can also use olive oil.

Apply the oil to your lips, but do it when you still have a lot of time before leaving the house, as it is poorly absorbed.

Fat cream

A great alternative to hygienic balm is a rich cream. The product will help exfoliate the top layer of skin and nourish the lips.

Cottage cheese and cream

Mix creamy cottage cheese with 33% fat cream in a 1:1 ratio.

Apply the resulting mixture to your lips, cover with a compress of damp gauze, and remove after 40 minutes.
