Some lipsticks contain ingredients that can be drying to the lips².

To avoid drying out your lips with lipstick, try a tinted lip balm instead. This way your lips will remain soft while a subtle tint will enhance their natural beauty.

NIVEA offers several tinted lip balms in different s flavors and shades to offer subtle color while nourishing and moisturizing your lips.

NIVEA Cherry Lip Care’s formula is enriched with Cherry Extract and Shea Butter to help dry lips feel soft and smooth. Lips feel hydrated while providing a subtle red tint, and the fruity flavor of sweet cherries. For best results, apply NIVEA Cherry Lip Care generously to lips for the ultimate care. Skin compatibility is dermatologically tested. NIVEA Cherry Tinted Lip Care provides lips with the nourishing care they deserve.

NIVEA tinted Lip Care also comes in peach, blackberry, strawberry, watermelon, and vanilla buttercream.

Another useful tip on how to get smooth lips is to regularly exfoliate them. Use a gentle lip scrub to remove any dead skin cells and reveal softer skin.

NIVEA 2 in 1 Lip Balm & Scrub with Vitamin E and Rosehip Oil is a great lip scrub to use on the go, as it doesn’t have to be wiped off – the formula contains gentle plant-derived scrubbing particles that dissolve as you rub your lips together, leaving your lips feeling exfoliated, soft, and moisturized. Also available in a formula with Aloe Vera.

Another way to help your lips stay soft is to make sure to drop the habit of biting or licking them. When saliva comes into contact with the skin on the lips, it contains digestive enzymes which can damage the skin’s protective barrier³. As the saliva evaporates and lips start to feel dryer, this prompts the desire to lick the lips again to re-moisten, perpetuating the issue. Lip-licking can be a nervous habit or a behavior prompted by lips feeling dry, so try to notice when you’re doing it to help redirect the behavior and keep lips moisturized with a nourishing lip balm instead.

Being dehydrated can cause dehydration of the skin. In order to keep your lips soft, make sure to drink enough water every day to provide your body and skin with enough hydration.

Once you’re done with your nighttime skincare routine, give some attention to your lips too before going to bed. Things like snoring or breathing out of the mouth can contribute to dry lips3, so you may want to apply a moisturizing balm to help keep lips³ moisturized while you sleep. NIVEA Dewy Lip Care with Hyaluronic Acid features an ultra-hydrating formula to leave lips moisturized and feeling soft.

Whether you’re experiencing dry lips from dry weather, sun exposure, breathing out of your mouth, or licking your lips, NIVEA’s Lip Care line is here to help restore moisture to your lips and leave them feeling soft and smooth. Explore our full line of Lip Care products.
