The Complete Beginner’s Guide To Organic Lip Balms
June 29, 2022-
Did you realize that the skin on our face can extend 15-20 layers deep, while the skin on our lips consists of only 3-5 layers? Moreover, the skin on our lips does not sweat or produce sebum, which is why they tend to become dry and chapped easily. An organic lip balm helps to hydrate dry lips and creates a protective barrier to prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
What Is An Organic Lip Balm?
An organic lip balm serves as a moisturizer specifically for your lips. It is crafted from ingredients that are obtained from organic farms. Its primary purpose is to nourish the lip area and help retain moisture.
Why Use Lip Balms?
The skin on your lips and the surrounding area is delicate and thin. It can quickly absorb certain ingredients. Additionally, anything applied to your lips may also enter your mouth. Therefore, it is crucial to select lip care products that are made with natural and organic components.
Ingredients In Organic Lip Balms
Juicy Chemistry lip balms are formulated with organic cold-pressed oils to hydrate your lips, various plant butters for nourishment, organic beeswax to soothe and repair chapped lips, therapeutic essential oils, and the antioxidant vitamin E.
How Do I Choose Lip Balms?
Identify the specific issues you encounter when caring for your lips, and then select a lip balm that contains ingredients designed to address those concerns.
To enhance lip pigmentation, opt for a lip balm that includes ingredients like organic rosehip oil, rose oil, lemon essential oil, or sea buckthorn oil, as these can help improve your lips' tone.
If you are dealing with chapped lips, choose a lip balm that features deeply nourishing ingredients such as organic beeswax, cocoa butter, or coconut oil.
How Often Should I Use Lip Balms?
A common guideline is to apply your lip balm twice a day—once during your morning routine and once at night. However, if you have particularly dry lips, feel free to reapply lip balm as needed, especially after drinking water or wiping your mouth.
What Is The Difference Between Lip Balms And Lipsticks?
A lip balm is a skincare product specifically designed to keep your lips hydrated and soft. Some lip balms may include a hint of pigment to enhance your lip color.
Lipstick, on the other hand, is a cosmetic product used to add color to your lips. Some lipstick formulations may also contain nourishing ingredients for your lips. For a flawless lipstick application, use an organic lip scrub and a lip balm beforehand.
