Key Takeaways:
Lips are often such an integral part of our beauty routines. We use face washes and serums, but how many target and aid the sensitive skin on our lips? Not only is it essential to pick the best products, but you also need to incorporate the best routines. Here are my top tips for a better lip treatment using one of my favorite collections: CBE Botanicals.
We can't ignore the importance of using the right products on an area as sensitive as your lips. And that's why I've prioritized safe and gentle products for your skin's needs with the CBE Botanicals line. Whether you have glycated skin or you are looking for deep moisturization, there's a product that matches your needs.
Want to learn more about these products and how to use them? Just head on over to my YouTube channel, where I walk you through various products, routines, and usage tips.
You've likely heard about exfoliation for your skin from your face to your feet. But have you ever thought about finding an exfoliation method that targets your lips? Exfoliation has to be one of the best lip treatments out there because it removes the dead skin that limits product viability, thereby maximizing the effects of your daily routines.
Try not to go crazy with the exfoliation, though. The skin on your lips is mucosa, loaded with nerve endings and quite sensitive, so take care with the kind of exfoliant you use. Another option is to take more control over the exfoliation process by using the Skin Wand Pro, a nanodevice created for home use to help maximize product penetration and eliminate dead skin coating the exterior of your lips.
Your lips — especially the bottom lip — are one of the least-protected areas of your body. They're often exposed to the sun and other elements, quickly burning and prone to skin cancers. That's why protecting your lips from the sun is absolutely critical.
I typically recommend using lip products with an SPF rating of 15 or higher and moisturizing capabilities. Take, for example, a product like CBE Botanicals Lip Gloss. It strengthens your lips with its plumping agent and moisturizes your lips with every application — all while helping you feel amazing.
Do you have particularly dry skin, or have you spent too much time out in the sun recently? Maybe you just need a bit of a refresh? Get that extra push to soothe dehydrated and irritated skin with the CBE Botanicals Hydrate + Conduct Gel. It helps both your facial skin and the skin on and around the lips.
Now, it's time for some self-assessment. One of the most important things you can do for the health of your skin all over your body, not just your lips, is to increase your water intake. You should stay hydrated to keep your skin plump and healthy long-term. The typical recommendation is to get about two liters of water a day, although it's best to figure out the ideal amount for you based on your age, weight, height, and the amount you exercise each day.
Another habit to avoid is licking your lips. Many of us do it without even realizing it — it seems so natural, especially when your lips are already dry. However, it's actually counterintuitive! This is because the sensitive skin on your lips doesn't like the digestive enzymes that are at home in your saliva. Instead, try to rehydrate your lips and break this habit with the CBE Botanicals Rescue Enzyme, a gentle mask for your lips that deeply hydrates even the driest skin.
Achieving healthier and more beautiful lips requires attention to daily habits and routines. Prioritizing lip protection, incorporating gentle exfoliation, and nourishing your lips with the right products are essential steps. Remember to choose products tailored to your skin's needs, like those from the CBE Botanicals line, and utilize techniques such as exfoliation to maximize their effectiveness.
Additionally, don't forget to protect your lips from the sun and avoid harmful habits like licking them. By assessing and adjusting your routines, staying hydrated, and seeking out targeted treatments, you can maintain plump, hydrated lips that contribute to your overall beauty and well-being.

Take a look at the six signs of unhealthy skin that appear even with a solid skin routine, along with the esthetician-trusted tips to fix them!
One of the most obvious signs of unhealthy skin is a dry, flaky complexion. You might not notice how dry your skin has become as you lather on your favorite moisturizer. But you can definitely tell your skin is in need of moisture after applying makeup like foundation or powder. If your skin peels and flakes by the end of the day, you’re most likely overdue for a good exfoliation session!
Exfoliation is the best way to gently loosen dead skin cells, accelerate skin renewal, and revive dry or flaky skin. I recommend washing with the deep cleaning, foamy CBE Botanicals Scrub Away the Day Cleanser, and following with the Revive Exfoliating Serum once or twice weekly. If your skin is sensitive or dry, try the Enzyme Rescue for a gentle but thorough exfoliation.
