In such a situation, it has become difficult for people to even leave the house. In this season, everyone has to take special care of their health as well as skin.

Apart from the skin, if the lips are not taken care of properly in this season, then the lips start cracking, due to which the look looks strange. Due to this, lip balms are available in the market, which keep the lips soft. But, if this lip balm is used in the wrong way, then the lips can become even more dry. This is the reason why today we are going to tell you the right way to use lip balm, so that your lips can get its benefit.

First of all, clean the lips

Lip balm should never be applied on dirty lips. Clean your lips before applying lip balm. If there is dirt, oil, or old lipstick on your lips, clean it with a slightly wet cloth or mild cleanser.

Do light scrubbing
If your lips are very chapped or dry, scrub with a mild exfoliator or soft toothbrush. This will remove dead skin and the lip balm will work better. After scrubbing, clean the lips lightly with water.

Now it's the turn of lip balm
After light scrubbing, apply lip balm evenly on the lips using your finger, lip balm tube, or stick. Keep in mind that the lip balm should not be rubbed on the lips, otherwise the lips will get damaged.

Take care of the quantity
Never apply too much lip balm, take only that much amount which forms a thin layer on your lips. While applying it, pay attention to the edges of the lips, so that the entire area gets moisturized.

Keep this in mind
Applying lip balm 2-3 times a day is sufficient. For this, you must keep a time to sleep in the morning and at night. In cold or dry weather it may be necessary to apply it more frequently. If you are going out, use a lip balm with SPF to protect against sun rays.
