Pout perfectors
No comments
Pucker-up! It's time to pamper your pout. We reveal the best primers, plumpers, balms, glosses and more for truly luscious lips
Lip tips from Dr Ravi Ratnavel, Consultant Dermatologist at Stoke Mandeville Hospital and Advisor to Neutrogena:
- Avoid licking lips frequently as this dries them out
- Turn down the central heating as a hot temperature acts like a sponge, soaking up moisture and leaving lips thirsty
- Dehydration also causes dryness. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to combat this
- Apply a thicker coat of a lip treatment at night as your body heals itself during sleep.L'Occitane Delicious Gloss
