keep your lips hydrated and flake free with the Lip Love System
If you're anything like me, you struggle with dryness in the winter season. A dry scalp, dry face, dry hands, dry lips... you get the idea... Well I've tried just about everything over my adulthood and I've seen some good products, and some not so good. This Lip Love System though, has done wonders! Normally my lips crack every winter, multiple times. Typically I see a crack in the corner of my lips or dead center on my bottom lip. I'm happy to report that I have not had any cracks or bleeding this winter season! I truly believe it is thanks to this lip system, so I want to share it with you along with a few tips you can get started with today!
First and foremost, let's talk about good habits for achieving plump healthy lips.
If you suffer from dry lips, you should begin to exfoliate and moisturize them frequently. We're talking nightly, or every other night to start; as well as moisturizing throughout the day as needed. Try to avoid picking any flakes that may appear on your lips. As tempting as this may be, you can damage the healthy tissue underneath and then you
can get small dips, sore areas, and/or bleeding.
Instead, try using a good sugar scrub or a soft bristle toothbrush to exfoliate. I would recommend doing it at night when you can intensely moisturize (while you sleep) after exfoliating.
I have been using the Lips Like Sugar lip scrub from Vic Beauty. This gentle lip scrub helps to restore your lip’s natural moisturization. It buffs away dead skin to prepare for smoother application of lip products, and assists in stimulating the growth of new fresh, softer skin cells. It features sucrose & molasses, shea butter, and castor oil. These ingredients promote hydration, toning, conditioning and soothing properties.
Grab some product on your finger and rub onto dry lips. Use circular motions with your finger for 1-2 minutes to gently exfoliate. Wipe off with the Vic Beauty Makeup Remover Cloth. The cloth is made of ultrasoft, anti-bacterial polyester fibers. It works by using tiny fibers that bind and hold makeup, lifting it away from skin with less force and irritation than a regular washcloth. It removes makeup with ease, including stubborn waterproof mascara and lipstick.

If you can't grab a sugar scrub, use gentle circular motions with your toothbrush to lift dead skin off lips. For a more gentle approach, use a wet brush on wet lips. For a slightly more intense exfoliation use a dry brush on wet lips, or wet brush on dry lips. Be careful when using a dry brush on dry lips, it may pull on the delicate skin more than is necessary and cause irritation or small tears. Instead make sure at least the brush or your lips are wet first. If I use a brush, I just do it when I brush my teeth; either before or after brushing. Remember to be gentle and don't push too hard.
Lets move on to moisturizing...
After using your sugar lip scrub (or toothbrush exfoliation) you need to moisturize your lips.
I have been using the Vic Beauty Extra Plump Moisturizing Lip Tint in clear. This moisturizer is a long-wearing, clear lip conditioning balm that plumps and hydrates to help lips appear fuller and feel pillowy-soft. This product plumps lips with volumizing spheres and helps stimulate collagen synthesis. Achieve visibly fuller looking lips as you condition, nourish, soften and moisturize.

I like to do the lip love system at night, so that I can use my Vic Beauty Sleep Lip Mask right after I exfoliate and moisturize. This is my favorite lip product out of this system. Within just a few days of using this three step system, I noticed my lips were already softer and improving in texture.
"The Beauty Sleep Lip Mask restores hydration to thirsty lips. It has anti-aging properties to help decrease fine lines, increase circulation, and moisturize while protecting the lips from free radicals. It plumps your lips, reduces the look of fine lines, and reveals a soft, dewy pout by morning."
This sleep mask features beeswax, rich in moisture and is a natural exfoliator to make your lips silky smooth. Carnauba Wax is a hypoallergenic ingredient for sensitive lips and gives that healthy glossy finish. Castor Seed Oil also seals in moisture and plumps dry lips. It also features Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 - which is an anti-aging lip plumper and moisturizer.

If you can't grab the sleep mask try a thick moisturizer that will have time to work over night. I recommend using Vaseline, Burt's bees or Blistex medicated lip ointment. Apply a thick layer on to lips right before you go to sleep for the best effect.
I hope you give this lip system a try! I have really fallen in love with this routine. If you're anything like me you have a routine of things you do before bed. I prep the coffee for morning, start the dishwasher, switch out laundry, do my PM skincare routine, and now I actually take care of my lips! I haven't had any problems with cracking, dryness or bleeding. Check out my one month results of using this system every night, with alternating the sugar scrub every other night:
