The air indoors is usually very dry when heaters are hard at work, while the wind outside is chilling. This causes rapid evaporation of moisture from the lips The skin tissue on the mouth is very delicate and thin, and can become so dry that it cracks and bleeds.

Use Environ’s Sun Care RAD lips, a vitamin-infused lip balm, or else Carmex lip balm, to stop lips from chapping. A creamy lipsitck worn over the balm will also help. Don’t pull off bits of skin – lips will bleed more and could get infected. You could also rub facial oil, such as that found in Environ’s Hydrating Oil Capsules, on lips to keep them soft. Also Idol*Lips Plumper – will keep your lips hydrated plus the bonus of plumping them up for you.
