Lips lose moisture quickly because the skin barrier is thinner. Small, frequent layers can improve comfort better than occasional heavy application.
Quick summary
- Lips lose moisture quickly because the skin barrier is thinner. Small, frequent layers can improve comfort better than occasional heavy application.
- Why lips and lip lines flake easily: Lips have less natural oil support than other areas, and wind, dry indoor air, and frequent licking can worsen tightness and flaking around the lip line.
- Day and night lip-moisture routine: Apply a tiny amount of balm to lips and surrounding dry edges after cleansing and before bed. Reapply thinly through the day when lips feel tight.
