Are you confused by what products you need for the perfect pout? Here are a couple things that you may be skipping that can make a big difference!
Exfoliate
Exfoliating lips becomes necessary when lips become chapped or discolored. There are various reasons for dry chapped lips; cold weather, over-exposure to sun, dehydration, breathing with an open mouth etc. I think we can all agree that we get those pesky flakes of skin from time to time. Now think about this, just like the rest of your body—to properly, adequately moisturize chapped lips, you need to get rid of the flakes and dead skin cells before your hydrating balms can really get in there, because otherwise the balm just sits on top of all of those flakes.
Exfoliators & Scrubs
The skin on your lips is super thin and fragile, so it’s important to use a product formulated just for your lips. These products contain pumice or other materials that exfoliate the lips to remove dry skin. This makes the lips smoother and allows for smoother color application.
My favorite is the Motives® MUAH Vanilla Lip Scrub. It’s a gentle yet effective scrub that will help your lips reach their full pout potential. This nourishing formula utilizes sugar to buff away dry skin to reveal supple, smooth lips that are prepped for an infusion of flawless color. It is also gentle enough to use everyday!
How do I use Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Scrub?
Apply with fingertip and massage gently onto lips, buffing away dull skin. Wipe away excess scrub with a warm washcloth. Finish with Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask for the ultimate lip pampering experience.
How does Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Scrub work?
Sugar crystals, a natural exfoliant, work to buff away dead skin cells easily and then dissolve leaving a sweet taste on your smoothed lips.
How often should I use Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Scrub?
Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Scrub is gentle enough for daily use and can be used as desired based on your lips needs.
Is Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Scrub tested on animals?
Motives does not conduct or commission animal testing of any finished product.
Lip Mask
Now that you exfoliated, it’s time for a lip mask! I think we’re all familiar with face masks—whether you’re into exfoliating masks, hydrating masks, or maybe a combination of the two, masking is a vital step in any woman’s skin care routine. But there’s another crucial step that you might be missing: lip masks.
If you’re like most women, you’re probably wondering what is a lip mask? That’s completely understandable because lip masks are a newcomer to the beauty scene, but I assure you that they are something you don’t want to miss out on!
ARE LIP MASKS ACTUALLY A THING?
Yes, they sure are. And, WOW, I am grateful! Lip masks are a simple way to keep your lips soft and smooth-and doesn’t everyone want soft, Lucious lips? Once you try them, you’ll know exactly what I mean!
I am in LOVE with the Motives® MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask, it’s a leave on lip treatment that seals in moisture and smooths for the perfect pout. This silky lip mask is infused with shea butter for effortless nourishment while emollients smooth for ultimate suppleness, and the sweetly subtle taste of vanilla is the cherry on top. This versatile treatment can be applied under your favorite Motives lip color or as an overnight lip mask.
How do I use Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask?
Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask can be used as an overnight mask or as a daily treatment.
Overnight Mask: Apply the mask generously to cleansed, exfoliated lips before bed. We recommend exfoliating with Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Scrub.
Daily Treatment: Apply to lips and gently massage until fully absorbed.
Can I wear lip color over Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask?
Yes! Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask can be used as an everyday lip treatment that is worn underneath your favorite lip color. Additional touch-ups to your lip color may be needed throughout the day, as the creamy base leaves your lips so smooth and moisturized!
How often should I apply Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask?
Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask can be applied as needed based on your lips. It can be used daily, especially in winter months when your lips need a little extra love, or several nights a week as an overnight mask.
Is Motives MUAH Vanilla Lip Mask tested on animals?
Motives does not conduct or commission animal testing of any finished product.
