Dry and chapped lips can cause cracks in the skin, causing discomfort. What’s more, they aren’t the most pleasing thing to look at, making us feel conscious.
Sonam has shared 2 home remedies that have worked well for her and can work wonders for us as well
- Sugar and honey lip scrub
We already know that our skin requires exfoliation. However, most of us often end up ignoring our lips while exfoliating the skin on our face.
When dead skin cells accrue it causes the lips to get chapped.
Sonam Kapoor suggests using a scrub made out of sugar and honey to fight this. Further, she explains how to prepare this scrub. Mix the two ingredients, take some of it on a fingertip, and gently rub on your lips. You can rinse it off but can also lick it off the lips, which Sonam does!
The actress warned about the number of times the scrub should be applied. She exfoliates her lips once or twice a week, as going overboard with it can lead to pigmentation.
Coconut oil to keep your lips moist and supple
Sonam is a big fan of coconut oil. She uses it to keep her lips moisturized.
She explains, “Coconut oil goes amazingly well on your lips. It tastes a little weird but works out.”
You can apply coconut oil on your lips before going to bed and wash it off in the morning, she said. She is a fashionista and we couldn’t agree more with her. Coconut oil is actually one of the most effective home remedies when it comes to moisturizing the skin deeply.
