The 7 Best Ways To Treat Your Dry, Cracked Lips This Winter

Lanolin: Shea butter, cocoa butter, and beeswax can enhance, attract, and trap lip moisture.

Vitamin E: Vitamin E is in most skincare products, especially lip treatments, for a reason.

Hyaluronic acid: Hyaluronic acid pulls moisture to the deeper skin layers for long-lasting hydration, holding 1,000 times its weight in water.

Peptides, Ceramides: Both substances enhance skin hydration and barrier restoration, thus they're typically paired together. 

SPF: The thinnest and most vulnerable skin surrounding your lips is also susceptible to sunburn and UV damage.

LED: These devices bring infrared and near-infrared benefits directly to your lips, like LED face masks.

Exfoliants Physical: Chemical exfoliants give your face a more even-keeled smoothness, but physical scrubs are better for lip treatments because they're easier to handle and "not overdo it".
