Today’s top-rated lip care products from LovelySkin exfoliate, hydrate and protect

The skin on our lips is very sensitive. With the changing seasons and a variety of environmental irritants like sun, wind and dryness, it’s no wonder our lips end up looking and feeling dry, cracked, irritated and aged. With a proper lip care routine to exfoliate, hydrate, plump and protect lips, you can maintain youthful, hydrated lips through every season of life with ease.

At LovelySkin, we make it simple to shop for top-rated lip skin care products formulated with nourishing, hydrating and restorative ingredients to give your lips the boost of support they crave. You can shop lip care at LovelySkin today to find your new go-to everyday lip care products. Plus, you’ll earn points toward future purchases when you do.

What do lips need?

Unlike the rest of our skin, the skin on our lips don’t have sebaceous glands and therefore do not produce oil that keeps the rest of the skin soft and moisturized–and no, licking your lips doesn’t keep them moisturized, it actually dries them out and can cause yeast buildup and inflammation! Here’s what lips need and how you can support them daily.

Lips need hydration

To keep lips hydrated and healthy, your skin care routine should include a moisturizing lip product, like a lip balm, serum or oil. Today’s most trusted hydrating formulas are infused with moisture-rich oils (castor, coconut, avocado and jojoba), butters (cocoa and shea), waxes (beeswax and candelilla), hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, ceramides, peptides and more.

They also provide restorative benefits for damaged skin, like hydrocortisone found in the FixMySkin 1% Hydrocortisone Healing Lip Balm, ideal for Accutane-treated lips, severely chapped lips or for an extra boost of protection during the dry winter months.

Lips need exfoliation

If lips are a bit rough or chapped, add an exfoliating lip treatment or lip scrub to your routine, of which we have several great options, like the staff favorite Clinicians Complex Lip Enhancer, PHYTOMER Youth Contour Smooth Eye and Lip Cream and others. Simply filter your lip care product search by “exfoliating” found under the “features” filter tab to find an exfoliating lip care product you love.

Lips need protection

Aside from exfoliating and regular hydration, lips need protection from the sun and other environmental stressors responsible for burns, premature aging, dryness and more. Your lips need sun protection! Luckily, there are countless sunscreen lip balms and lip care products perfect for protecting lips from a number of environmental stressors. We recommend lathering up lips with an SPF of at least 30, offered by EltaMD UV Lip Balm SPF 36 or the COOLA Tinted Mineral Liplux SPF 30, among others.

At LovelySkin, you’ll find an incredible selection of lip care products in tinted, untinted, scented and unscented formulations perfect for every skin type and concern. You can browse and shop LovelySkin today to find yours! For more derm-approved insight into how to best care for your skin, visit the LovelySkin Blog.
