Lips are a very expressive part of our face and have always been a great element of seduction. This is why we all want to have naturally beautiful and healthy lips.
The skin of the lips is different from the rest of the face skin for some characteristics that make its care special. First of all, the skin of the lips is thinner, in fact, while the skin horny layer has 15 to 16 layers, the labial one has 3 or 4. Furthermore, one of the reasons why the lips dry easily is that they do not have sweat and sebaceous glands.
Chapped lips no more
The skin of the lips does not contain sweat and sebaceous glands and this, if on the one hand it guarantees us not to have blackheads or pimples on the lips, on the other hand it makes the lips more exposed to problems of dehydration and to the effect of dry lips and chapped lips. In fact, precisely for this reason, it is easier for our mouth to lose hydration quickly, especially when exogenous factors (wind and heat) or endogenous (dehydration of the body) drain its already contained reserves.
Furthermore, with aging, lips tend to lose their plumpiness and tone, especially if we don’t care about hydration over the course of life. To keep lips healthy and toned you should never forget them during your beauty routine and should use specific products.
Don’t forget, then, that the lips do not contain melanin, the natural protection factor of the skin from the sun, which is why they must be absolutely protected in case of direct exposure to UV rays (ultraviolet). This particular fragility is not only a problem in terms of hydration, but also on the immune level, this is the reason why herpes simplex, a latent virus in the body waiting for a moment of vulnerability to appear, often elects the lips to show up.
So let’s see how we can protect our lips to say goodbye to dry and chapped lips forever.
The beauty routine for our lips
You can find on the market many barrier effect products for lip protection, such as lipid-based butters and sticks, which have the purpose of acting as a barrier to reinforce the thin layer of skin of the lips and try to replace the lipid component absent in the skin of the lips.
Instead, YA.BE has formulated the first completely natural and vegan Lip Serum, a lip serum created specifically for the characteristics and needs of the lip skin that deeply hydrates lips and not only acts as a barrier. The main active ingredients that ensure maximum hydration, protection and care of the lips are: hyaluronic acid, wheat germ extract, lactic acid and fructose. Hyaluronic acid acts to intensely hydrate, plump and balance moisture levels without any sticking effect, giving the skin its particular properties of resistance and shape retention. Hyaluronic acid represents one of the main components of connective tissue, in particular of its amorphous substance, a compact gel in which collagen and elastin fibers are immersed. Wheat germ extract is moisturizing, antioxidant, particularly functional for dry, dull and dull skin; skin protective and conditioning has a soothing and regenerating action for skin reddened by UV radiation. It has a high content of fatty acids including Omega 3 and Omega 6 and above all a very high percentage of vitamin E which provides it with a strong anti-aging effect. In addition, thanks to the fatty acids and especially the linoleic acid which it contains, it is extremely nourishing and allows you to counteract dry skin as well as the loss of elasticity. Lactic acid helps to lighten pigmentation and effectively nourish the lips. It is an organic acid and has skin exfoliating, pH regulator and skin conditioning properties. Similar in composition to glycolic acid, although much more delicate, lactic acid is almost suitable for all skin types and performs an exfoliating, disinfectant, moisturizing and regenerating action, without affecting the natural thickness of the skin. Finally, fructose has moisturizing, prebiotic and protective properties; it creates a barrier capable of preventing the loss of moisture from the skin, thanks to its hygroscopic properties.
Take care of your lips !!!
