Do you look in the mirror and notice that your lips seem like an accordion of how cracked they are? Well, this is a situation that men and women experience throughout the year, cold or hot, windy or not. In summer, for example, we usually do the following activities, enough reasons to have dry lips:

- Drink very cold liquids and then sunbathe.

- Spend a whole day at the beach or pool and then go outside at night with strong winds.

- Spending many hours in air-conditioned places.

- Get in and out of the car with the air conditioning on.

- Smoking and drinking cold drinks at the same time.

- Going through the center of a city without protection on your lips, it is not the same if you apply sunscreen on your face.

And if you have read this post very late and at this moment you have chapped lips, you can implement these recommendations:

- Do not drink very hot beverages, it would cause burning.

- Do not lick them, I know it is an unconscious act, but saliva can irritate them more.

- Do not bite them, as they can become inflamed and the discomfort will increase.

- Do not pull on the raised skin. Some people do it with their fingers or their teeth, causing injuries.
- Do not smoke. The heat that comes out of your mouth affects you more.

- Do not apply moisturizers with strong ingredients, preferably it is ecological since they do not irritate.

- Drink a lot of water, in contact with it, they will hydrate.

In short, it is about enjoying the summer to the fullest without complexes, and to achieve this, we suggest you take a lip balm or lip balm with you, you can put it on as many times as you want, carry it in your bag, in the car or in your pocket clothes, you will notice that if they are hydrated, your lips will chap less. Their skin is very sensitive and the change in temperature, wind, heating, colds and UV rays dehydrates them, producing cracks, flaking, burning and in the worst cases, bleeding because the lips do not have sebaceous or sweat glands, which increases dryness.

They are also known as split lips or cut lips.
