Our only salvation for the lips during cold winter days is emollient! What we probably do not know is that excessive use of lip balm is not the only advantage. 

1. Your lips may dry out even more

According to dermatologists, lip balms have some ingredients that can irritate the lips even more, so try to use them in moderation.

2. You will see that your lips may become more and more irritated

Specialists suggest not using the emollient more than 3 times a day. In the morning, after lunch and before bedtime. If you use it without thinking, you will notice that occasionally sores can form in different areas of the lips.

3. Your lips may become lazy

As they hydrate more than they should, you tend not to move your lips as much as usual in order to maintain their hydration level.

4. You can become addicted

Not to the softener, but to the feeling you get as a result of using them. Softened lips create addiction, but be careful!
