This is the time of year when many of us wake up with dry, tight lips that with one smile will split. Ouch!
And your kids (and husband!) aren't immune to this, either. The best way to ensure that you can give your spouse a wakeup smile without splitting your lips is to apply a thick moisturizer before bed. My household uses simple Vaseline, because love it or not, it works. If you aren't a fan of Vaseline, maybe Waxeline is for you?
Have everyone in your family put a little dab on their lips before bed and notice the difference the first morning after. And while you're thinking about your lips, consider exfoliating them when you have dry, flaky skin. Nothing is worse than chapped lips, but a few simple steps can keep them hydrated and healthy, even in the winter.
If you're in your teens, you are just at the right time to start taking care of your face properly. This will help avoid skin care problems caused by improper habits. It doesn't take a lot of time, and it doesn't have to cost a lot of money.

They were $1.99 each or 2 for $3.00.
