Lip scrub

How to get perfectly soft and smooth lips?

Lip care is often neglected in our daily routine, even though our lips are among the most sensitive parts of our body. They are the first step towards a winning smile and an important part of our facial expression. Dry and chapped lips are not only an aesthetic problem - they can cause discomfort, pain and even prevent the application of lipstick or gloss.

With proper care and regular peeling of the lips, you can ensure that your lips remain healthy, smooth and always ready to smile.

Why use a lip scrub?

The skin on your lips is unique – it is extremely thin and lacks oil glands to naturally moisturize it. This makes them prone to dryness, cracking, and a build-up of dead skin cells. Exfoliating removes these dead skin cells, stimulates skin regeneration, and allows for better absorption of moisturizing products like lip balms and oils.

What happens without exfoliating your lips?

• Dry and chapped lips: Lack of exfoliation leads to a build-up of dead skin cells that make your lips look rough and unattractive.

• Loss of hydration: The build-up of dead skin cells creates a barrier that prevents

1. Removal of dead skin cells: Exfoliation effectively removes dead skin cells, revealing a softer and smoother surface of the lips.

3. Makeup preparation: Exfoliating the lips ensures an even application of lipstick or gloss, extending their wear and improving their appearance.
4. Natural lip shine: Regular exfoliation stimulates blood circulation in the lips, restoring their natural rosy glow.
5. Preventing chapped lips: Moisturizing after exfoliation helps prevent dryness and chapping of the lips.
