What to do if pregnant women have dry lips

Late autumn is approaching, and with it the cold winter is about to arrive. Pregnant women should pay attention to wearing more clothes to prevent colds and fevers, and eat more warm and nourishing foods to prevent colds. Winter is coming, and in addition to the colder weather, many pregnant women will encounter a problem, that is, dry lips. Many pregnant women are afraid that the lip balm and lipstick on the market will affect the fetus, so they just don’t apply them. So what should pregnant women do if their lips are dry?

There are two reasons for dry lips: one is lack of vitamins and the other is lack of water. How do you determine which situation you belong to? If the corners of your mouth start to become dry and cracked and there is white secretion at the corners of your mouth, it is a sign of vitamin deficiency. You should pay attention to eating more vegetables and fruits, avoid picky eating, and you can also take vitamin pills appropriately.

Dry lips due to lack of moisture will cause dead skin to accumulate on the lips or corners of the mouth. In addition to drinking more water to improve the condition fundamentally, we will also teach you the "7 Innocent Steps" immediately. These are suitable for people who are "natural and healthy" and those who don't want to use lipstick but only want to use lip balm, and those who are "seriously ill" and whose lip skin needs emergency treatment but are temporarily not suitable for using lipstick.

First, cover your lips with a hot, wet towel, then apply a thick layer of lip balm or vaseline, and then use a protective film to make a lip mask. It will work immediately. Be careful not to lick your lips.

1. Remember to apply lip balm after washing your face and after meals to add a protective film for your lips to prevent moisture loss too quickly.

2. Even in winter, it is best to use a lip balm with sun protection.

3. Get rid of the habit of licking your lips frequently. Doing so will lick off the lip balm on your lips, losing the protective layer and accelerating the evaporation of moisture on your lips.

4. Exfoliate your lips regularly to keep them moisturized and healthy. Remember to do this when your lips are fully moistened, such as after taking a shower, and be gentle. For normal skin, use this treatment once a week.

5. If your lips are very dry and peeling, you need special lip care. First, wipe your lips gently with a wet towel, then wipe off the moisture, and then apply lip balm containing ingredients such as calendula, chamomile essence, beeswax, aloe vera, tea tree oil, etc. After continuous care for a week, your lips will be restored to moisture.

Generally speaking, you can use lip balm to solve the problem of dry lips, but nowadays many lip balms or lipsticks on the market contain a large amount of chemical ingredients, which can easily have adverse effects on the fetus when used by women. In this case, we can choose some lipsticks that pregnant women can use, or the above content also introduces some small home remedies for solving dry lips in pregnant women.
