How to improve dark lip color, six methods can alleviate

Dark lip color has a great impact on your image. In addition to the most basic application of lipstick, you also need to pay attention to cleaning and caring for your lips. You can also apply hot compresses. If your lips feel dry, do not lick them frequently with your tongue.

01. Re-clean. The most important thing for lips is makeup removal and cleansing. I recommend Shu Uemura's cleansing oil, which can help you remove all your makeup very cleanly. Rub gently with cleansing oil, and once all the lip gloss is gone, wash it off with clean water. But removing it once is not enough, you have to remove it again to be thorough.

02. Love to use lip balm. If you want to cherish the delicate skin of your lips, I recommend the very easy-to-use Kiehl's No. 1 lip balm. There are two types of this lip balm. If you often go out and your lips are dry, it also has a lip balm with an SPF of 15. Some people's lips will turn darker when exposed to the sun. Apply sunscreen lip balm first and then lip gloss. This will not only protect you from the sun but also prevent fine lines!

03. Care everywhere. If there is no particular problem with your lips, applying hot compresses once or twice a month will be enough, but lip balm should be applied every day even when you are doing nothing. If you want to apply lipstick or touch up lipstick, you must apply lip balm first and then lipstick. In addition, whether you are removing lipstick or wiping your lips, you must be gentle because the skin at the corners of your mouth is very fragile and easily broken. Also, try not to use toilet paper to wipe your mouth; it is better to use soft tissue paper.

04. Hot compress. Another maintenance method is to apply a thick layer of Kiehl's No. 1 lip balm or Vaseline on your lips, then cut a mouth-shaped piece of plastic wrap and stick it on, and then apply a hot towel on your mouth. If you want to strengthen it, you can wring out the hot towel and apply it one more time. After tearing off the plastic wrap, you will find that your lips are much softer. Of course, you don’t have to use plastic wrap. Just apply a thick layer of lip cream before going to bed, and your lips will be soft and moisturized when you wake up the next day.

05. Maintain lip color. I believe that as long as you take good care of your lips, the color of your lips will naturally become beautiful. Besides, the color of lips is mostly determined by nature. Oriental people are born with vermilion lips, which is pretty good looking. Even if you are born with dark lips, you can effectively improve your lip color as long as you do a good job of cleaning and maintenance!

06. Also, never lick your lips when they are dry. The more you lick them, the drier they will become, and eventually they may even peel! If your lips are so dry in winter that white peeling flakes appear, a makeup artist taught me a trick: dip a cotton swab in hot water and apply it to the dry and peeling areas of your lips. Wait for two or three seconds, wait for the temperature to drop slightly, and then gently rub off the dead skin. It's so easy, and you won't have to tear off flakes until they bleed again!
