How To Heal Cold Mediated Lips Wrinkling And Weird Feeling Like Little Grains Of Sand Around Mouth?
Hello. When I'm at work I work next to the cold for 8 straight hours and I don't get to put on any lip ointment. I usually use "Carmex," but my lips have this weird feelings as if I have little grains of sand around my mouth. Sometimes before I shower I put on a thick coat of vaseline on my lips and shower with really warm water and after a few showers it fixes it. Is there any other way I can fix this or prevent this from happening? My boyfriend even says my lips feel wrinkly when he kisses me. Thank you.

Hello
Welcome to HCM
Your lips and appearance around mouth is due to your occupation of working around cold for 8 hrs. Instead of vaselin since it contain petroleum you can apply glycerin or when at home you can apply warm desi ghee while going to bed. Put drop of mustad oil in your navel before going ro bed.
Try to take out time from your work and apply 3 to5 times a day.it will avoid wrinkling and make your lips soft.
Thank you
