How to Get Pink Lips at Home Naturally

Our lips are more sensitive than you think and there could be several medical and non-medical reasons that might rob off its healthy appearance. Some common reasons include sun damage, dehydration, hormonal imbalance, excessive consumption of caffeine, smoking, environmental pollutants, and using poor-quality cosmetic lip products. But with some effective routine lip care at home as mentioned below, it is possible to treat and reverse the effect naturally.

1.Scrub Your Lips to Remove Dead Skin Cells

Exfoliating the skin of our lips is as important as it is for the rest of the body to get rid of the flaky, dead skin on the surface. But you have to do it cautiously because the skin of the lips is thinner. To prepare a gentle lip scrub at home, mix half a teaspoon of turmeric powder with a teaspoon of cold milk and apply it on your lips three times a week. Let it sit for five minutes and then scrub it off gently before washing off with plain water.

Turmeric powder will gently remove the dead skin of your pout and help it heal while the lactic acid present in milk will help soften and lighten it.

 

2. Apply Fruit Based Lip Mask

There is always a miracle mask to get you covered for every part of your body. Say goodbye to those dark patches on your pout with a strawberry mask which comes loaded with Vitamin C and antioxidants. Smash a strawberry and make a pulp, mix a teaspoon of olive oil and honey with it, and blend together. Apply and leave on the paste on your lips for ten minutes before wiping it away with a damp wash cloth. Use the mask three to four times a week. You will love its nourishing and brightening effect and start noticing the pink tint on your lips!

 

3. Use Rose Petal Lip Mask

If you don’t find strawberries suitable for your skin, you can go for this alternative mask which is equally effective. Soak five or six fresh rose petals in milk overnight and grind them together in the morning along with a few drops of milk. Make a thick paste of crushed rose petals and cover your lips with it for five to ten minutes. Wash off with plain water. If you have dry lips, you can mix a few drops of honey or cream with this paste.

 

4. Apply Lemon and Sweet Almond Oil

It is very important to keep your lips moisturized. Don’t forget to apply a good lip balm with SPF protection as a follow-up regime after using the scrub and mask to maintain the new texture of your lip skin. Slather it on your pout also before you sleep to wake up to softer, smoother, and plumper pink pout in the morning.

 

6. Use Glycerin Correctly

Here is how you can use glycerin for lips - dilute it with almond oil, honey or ghee or simply plain water, and apply it directly on your lips. Leave it overnight to get attractive, supple pink lips.
