Solutions for dry, chapped lips have grown up a lot since chapstick. 

From lip oils beloved bydonut skin fans to overnight lip masks, these days there are plenty of options for all skin types. 

Even better, just because you’re using one type of product doesn’t mean you can’t use others.  Mix and matching lip skincare products can do wonders for your lips, and today we’re going to look at the best lip skincare in Australia for 2022. 

 

WHAT IS LIP SKINCARE?

Skincare for lips goes way beyond dealing with flaky chapped lips.  Protecting and moisturising is part of it, but the aim of the game for lip care is to not only hydrate the lips, but get them looking in the best shape possible!

The right skincare can add shine and lustre, in addition to helping smoothen and soften lips with regular use over time.

 

 

WHAT TYPES OF LIP CARE ARE THERE?

While there are plenty of options, skincare for your lips mostly fall into the following types:

1. Firstly, lip balms - the classic, on the go remedy for cracked lips.
2. Secondly, lip masks - while some lip masks can be used as lip balms, not all lip balms are lip masks. Wear these masks for a period of time (this can be 15-30 minutes, or even overnight) for designed boosted hydration for your lips, making them look full, juicy and plump.
3. Thirdly, lip glosses - for lips that shine, look no further.
4. Finally, lip essences/oils - if you want your lips to look glowy and radiant, check these out.  Combining the benefits of lip gloss and lip balm, these essences and oils are perfect for hydrating your lips and giving them an extra bit of pop.
