My most trusted LIP CARE products💄

A little back story📖

Growing up, way back when plumped lips were not a trend yet, my classmates used to call me names like "sabog nguso" because of my lips. I hated my lips back then. I would tuck my lips a bit when I smile on pictures so it would look slimmer and thinner. I also used cheap lip gloss and tints that made my lips dry and discoloured over time.

Now that full lips are in style, lots of women are even seeking medical procedures, different tools, and beauty essentials to achieve a fuller looking lip. I am not saying it's bad. No, it's not. In fact, this trend taught me to love my lips, take care of it, and embrace it, which I should have done long beforehand.

The BEFORE photo:

👄 Excuse my braces. I just woke up in that photo, you can still see the stains from the lip tint I wore that night. My lips were a lil bit dry so it's time for a lip scrub.

The AFTER photo and how my lip care routine goes:

🌸 Clean.

Use make-up removers when wiping off your lipstick. Use a cotton ball/pad and wipe gently.

🌸 Exfoliate.

I use 👉BLK EXFOLIATING LIP SCRUB👈 It's a 2-in-1 lip scrub with moisturiser. Apply a pea size amount to your finger and scrub gently. Remember not to overdo it! Scrubbing 1-2 times a week will make the difference!

🌸 Hydrate. Here's where lip balms come in. There are plenty of good lip balms out there which you can use. Best to apply them throughout the day or before going to sleep.

🌸 Protect.

Did you know that aside from your skin, your lips need protecting from the sun too? Another one of my holy grail is the 👉SUNGLOW BY FRESH TINTED LIPSCREEN👈 I love that it's tinted so I don't have to wear anything on top of it. They have lots of shades and my fave one is the "Very Berry". Wearing lip sunscreens protects you from sun damage which leads to wrinkles, dryness, and discoloration.

Other lip care you have to try:

🌸 Lip Patch

🌸 Lip Mask

🌸 Lip Oils

Where to find them?

📍 Watsons. My go-to skincare hub 😁

📍 Lazada/Shopee. Make sure to buy from the brand's official store.

I don't consider mine as plumped, full, and healthy. I am just here to share these 2 products that I find very promising because they helped me restore my lips in a lot of good ways. I can say my lips have improved a lot upon years of using these 2 products. They're waaaaay drier, chapped, and darker before.

Hope this post helped you. And if you have other recommendations , pls let me know too 😊 Let's help each other achieve a healthier looking lips😊👄💋
