Lip Care for Healthy Lips

What you put on your body is just as important as what you put in your body. That is why at Mambino we use only the highest quality ingredients in all of our skincare products. One of the keys to taking care of your skin is hydration. This is just as true for your lips. Lip care shouldn’t be left out of your skin care regimen. Hydration is essential for your lips just as it’s essential for the rest of your skin.

The skin of your lips is very sensitive and can be damaged relatively easily. This is why extra care needs to be taken when choosing products to moisturize your lips. Additionally, we often are hard on our lips without even realizing it. How often do you find yourself picking at your lips or biting them? This skin on your lips can easily be dehydrated, causing rough dry patches. Frequently, people lick their lips in an attempt to remoisturize them, but this actually causes them to dry out even more.

A good first step to your lip care is to exfoliate. This can easily be accomplished with a DIY lip scrub. You’ll likely have most of the ingredients you need at home. Rummage through your cabinets for the following ingredients: sugar, brown sugar, grapeseed oil, coconut oil, vanilla and lavender essential oil. Here is the recipe for your very own DIY Lavender Vanilla Lip Scrub:

2 TBS sugar

1 TBS brown sugar

2 tsp grapeseed oil

1 tsp coconut oil

¼ tsp vanilla

10 drops lavender essential oil

Just mix together and put in a lip balm jar. This particular recipe makes about 3 jars full. Use a small dab to rub onto your lips. Rinse off and repeat once or twice a week. After you’ve exfoliated, try moisturizing with ourKissable Lips Glossy Vegan Lip Balm.This gloss will deeply moisturize as it renews and protects dry or chapped lips. Suitable for even the most sensitive skin, apply as often as needed. Petroleum and beeswax-free our gloss is infused with natural ingredients such as olive and coconut oil and shea butter to nourish and moisturize your lips.

All of our products are made with sustainable packaging and fair trade practices. With colder temperatures right around the corner, it will be even more important to keep your lips moisturized and protected and our gloss will help keep your lips kissably soft.
