Why lip balm is your lifesaver
8 THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH IT
EVEN MORE
I think it's lip balm one of those standard things that everyone always has in their bag. I even have one in every bag as standard, so I never have to switch. And it's really not just to give dry lips a bit of shine. No, it's also because it's actually just a multitasker, with which you can achieve plenty of nice and fun things.
1. Massage your cuticles
Cuticles need to stay supple, otherwise there will be hangnails and hassle, and that doesn't look very pretty. With a dab of lip balm on your cuticles, they stay supple and can't dry out due to the cold weather.
2. Prevent blisters
Yes, that's incredibly handy. Lip balm ensures that your skin becomes less rough and thus remains supple, and the chance of blisters is much lower. From now on, it's definitely allowed to always take your beauty bag with you when you're going for a long walk, because it shows that beauty has a much deeper meaning.
3. Touch up makeup
Running mascara or eyeliner? You can touch it up with a bit of lip balm. Much softer for the skin and you won't have any red spots left. Of course, you shouldn't do this with colorful lip balms, because then it becomes a bit clownish.
4. Dry spots
Dry elbows, knees, or knuckles can simply be treated with lip balm. Rub a bit warm in your hands and you'll see an immediate difference.
5. Highlighter
Provides a fresh glow under your eyebrows, on your cheekbones, or just above the lip. Even if you aren't wearing makeup you look incredibly radiant.
6. Youthful blush
If you think you look a bit tired, then you immediately grab the lip balm. That does the job. If you apply a bit around the eyes, the skin tightens a bit and this makes fine lines much less visible. Very nice.
7. Eyebrow gel
Keeps those well-filled eyebrows neatly in place and ensures that hairs don't go out of line.
8. Baby hairs
Baby fuzz can definitely get some attention nowadays. It's nice. They can even be stuck down very tightly. Or the other way around: if you're having a lot of trouble with them and want to tame them, use some lip balm. Gel can be quite harsh and very present, but lip balm is softer and nicer for the skin.
