How to Fix Dry Lips: A Simple Lip Care Routine Guide

Dry lips are one of the most common skincare concerns. Environmental factors such as wind, cold weather, sun exposure, and indoor heating can remove moisture from the lips and cause dryness.

Many people experience something known as the Dry Lip Cycle — where lips feel dry, lip balm provides temporary relief, and dryness quickly returns.

This guide brings together educational resources from AJ’s EO Infusions® to help you better understand dry lips and explore supportive lip care routines.
