Did you know that your lip mark, like a fingerprint, is totally unique to you?
July 29, people everywhere will be celebrating their
uniqueness by posting their pout (and favorite lip shade) and tagging it
#NationalLipstickDay.
Yes, we know, Hallmark holidays have been replaced by
Instagram holidays, but why not join the fun? And how can you possibly enjoy
this inclusive 3-year old holiday (not to mention all the lipsticks you own) to
the fullest extent possible if your lips are not primed for lipstick??
Facts about Lips
Our lips need skincare too. The skin of the lips is thinner
than elsewhere on the body, which is how the blood vessels underneath give them
their reddish hue. Lips don’t have sweat glands or oil glands (good news is
you’ll never get a pimple on your lips), so they can dry out faster than the
rest of our skin. Lips can also develop wrinkles, just like skin. (Of course,
smoking is the WORST for lip wrinkles, another reason to quit immediately.) As
we age, lips naturally lose plumpness too, as collagen and hyaluronic acid
decline.

effects of the sun while softening and visibly smoothing lip texture. Beeswax,
Avocado Oil and Shea Butter all help to moisturize. You lips can show signs of
aging just like the rest of the face.
Tips for Lips
There are some other tips for keeping lips plump and
moisturized. Stop drinking out of straws, which can create lines around the
mouth and on the lips. Don’t purse or pucker lips while exerting energy say,
while weight lifting. And stay hydrated by drinking lots of water.
So, prep your lips and prepare for one of the most enticing
social media holidays to appear on your phone ever. And don’t forget the
lipstick!
