The need for lip balm in a girl's daily life.

The delicate skin of the lips constantly suffers from such unfavorable factors as

1. car exhaust gases,
2. unhealthy diet
3. use of low-quality lip cosmetics (in particular matte lipsticks),
4. indoor air is too humid or dry;
5. bad habits.

Lip balms are designed specifically to care for them.

How to choose the right lip balm?

It is very important to choose the right lip balm, because the same product, but with a more chemical composition, can significantly harm the delicate skin of the lips.

Depending on the time of year, lips need certain care: from the beginning of late autumn to the end of early spring, a rich balm texture is needed to guarantee nutrition; and in the period from the beginning of late spring to the end of early autumn - a light, quickly blending balm texture that maintains the water-lipid balance in the skin of the lips, moisturizing them if necessary.

A truly good lip balm should include the following ingredients:

1. beeswax, carnauba or candedilla wax;
2. peach, castor, olive, coconut oils, Shea butter, cocoa, jojoba;
3. vitamins A (retinol), E;
4. natural extracts of fruits, plants or flowers instead of chemical flavors;
5. if the lip balm is colored - natural pigment from cherries (red), carrots (orange), etc.;
6. substances - Sanskrins: they protect the skin of the lips from exposure to ultraviolet radiation (SPF - sun protection factor must be at least 15 all year round).

You should beware of those lip balms that contain petroleum products:

1. Vaseline: creates a film on the skin of the lips, under which the lips are unable to receive nutrients from the outside;
2. glycerin: it does have softening and moisturizing properties, but only when dissolved in water; however, being in the texture of a lip balm, it only draws out moisture;
3. hyaluronic acid: a favorite component in plastic surgery and in all beauty salons, because it perfectly enlarges the necessary areas, slowing down the aging process. But this is not suitable for the skin of the lips: they are too sensitive and tender for this, and besides, the effect of hyaluronic acid on the skin of the lips in the balm is not safe and guarantees a good result;
4. mineral oils: effect like Vaseline;
5. fragrances: menthol, peppermint, camphor - they dry the skin of the lips, temporarily giving them a slight tingling sensation.

Types of lip balms.

Lip balm can be hygienic, sun-protective and colored with translucent and opaque color pigments.

Hygienic lipsticks are considered safe - therapeutic and protective; they do not contain dyes, but have useful additives; they can be recommended even for children, but the composition should still be studied.

Sunscreen balm, as its name suggests, protects lips from the sun and wind, while softening their thin and delicate skin. By the way, sun protection components, or UV (SPF) factor, are also added to many hygienic lipsticks.

Colored lip balms are most popular as a replacement for standard lipsticks: they can be found in the cosmetic bag of women of all ages, at any time and in any country in the world.

How to choose children's lip balm?

A child's delicate lips are unusually sensitive to any external influences and easily lose their natural protection and shine. This is due to the child’s thin skin, unfairly deprived of secretion glands and melanin that protects from the sun. Without proper attention, children's lips crack and peel. You can make their life easier, and this is quite simple; for this you need to choose the right chapstick.

As a rule, hygienic lipsticks contain moisturizing and fatty components, vitamins and, of course, those that protect lips from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays - SPF filters. In addition to the main ingredients, specialists from cosmetic brands supplement the composition with extracts of medicinal plants that have various healing and protective properties.

Signs of a quality lip balm.

The quality of lip balm depends not only on the recipe, but also on the production technology. As a rule, well-known manufacturers provide this technology.

A good quality lip balm gives an even smear; It is applied to the skin easily and evenly, and stays on it, causing a feeling of tenderness and silkiness. The smell and taste of this lipstick are pleasant, and the surface is smooth; it doesn’t tighten or irritate your lips – you almost don’t feel it at all; the surface of the balm is smooth and evenly colored (if it gives a tint). A high-quality balm does not melt in the sun and generally reacts little to temperature changes; The lipstick core is quite durable; When stored, it does not become covered with a gray coating or droplets, and does not lose its taste and aroma.

Avoiding the hassle of buying lip balm isn't that hard. There is no need to buy it in kiosks and underground passages, and especially from random people.

The packaging of the balm and the product itself must be examined carefully: if the packaging looks cheap, the plastic is easily scratched, the balm itself is not uniform in color, there are stains in the texture, and the smell is too strong - its quality is low.

The benefits of lip balms.

Manufacturers of lip balms are currently adding protective, moisturizing, nourishing, healing components to the composition that protect lips from the sun, wind, frost, dry air and the consequences of poor ecology. Balms that moisturize can not only tint lips, but also make them softer and prevent flaking. They contain oils of the following nutritional components: avocado, castor, cocoa, sunflower or coconut oil, chamomile extract.

Nourishing lipsticks can easily protect lips from cracks in winter and autumn, because they contain a large amount of wax.

There are also colored lip balms. They contain coloring pigments along with esters. When the esters evaporate, a colored film remains on the lips. But it is not recommended to use such balms daily because they make your lips dry.

Hygienic lipsticks perfectly prevent dryness and cracking. Very good for caring for lips in winter. They contain vitamins, nutritional, anti-inflammatory, and moisturizing substances. These lip balms often do not have shades, so their use is not decorative.

Studies of lip balms, including products from global manufacturers such as Maybelline NY (Babylips line), Nivea, Neutrogena Norwegian formula, Yves Rocher, have shown that there are still negative consequences from the use of these products, and it is worth knowing about it.

In winter, during cold weather, bitter frost and strong winds, lips must be protected. Also, in the sultry heat, lips are exposed to dangerous ultraviolet rays from the sun. Aggressive influence of the external environment worsens the condition and appearance of the delicate skin of the lips. Negative consequences manifest themselves in peeling, the appearance of small and sometimes large cracks.
