Always be lipstick ready! I suggest you make an intensive lip scrub on that one day a week, when you have you time. You can buy lips scrub, but my recommendation is you take a few basic ingredients that can be found in every kitchen - sea salt and olive oil, and make efficient mechanical lip scrub. Salt is responsible for removal of dead cells, and olive oil moisturizes and deeply nourishes the lips.

Try crystallized honey. Its structure gives gentle exfoliation, but it also nourishes and hydrates the lips.

Mechanical exfoliation can bump up circulation of the lips, after which they naturally look fuller, have more volume and take on a natural redish color. This is a small natural trick for achieveing visually larger lips for a selfie.

After all that jam we need to moisturize lips and these several products have been part of my cosmetic bag for years.

NUXE Reve de Miel Lip Balm is an excellent day to day balm for dry and damaged lips. Beautiful texture that just melts on the lips and creates a long-lasting moisture so it is not necessary to frequently reapply. The combination of smell is wonderful - sweet almond gives a warm atmosphere while grapefruit simply refreshes. You can use it as an intensive treatment before bed. Apply one thick layer, wait for it to absorb, then kiss a tissue and apply another layer before bedtime.

An excellent product for everyday use comes in the form of a Labello Lip Butter. Cute little tin pots hiding really some fine product. They are easily applied and remain on the lips. You can choose between the classic fragrance of Classic Labello, tropical coconut that evokes summer or refreshing scent of berries.

OLIVAL cosmetics, popular Croatian skincare brand, has something that I haven’t seen for years and it takes me back to childhood. It comes in an ointment type of form and was an absolute hit when I was a child. I just love the strawberry one. Despite the delicate pink shades in the pot, it has no color and gives off a beautiful intense glow. It can also serve as a night treatment for lip care, when you apply a sufficiently thick layer on the lips, give it a good rub with your fingers, and the next morning lips will be visibly soft, nurtured and refreshed.
