When exfoliating ...is it reccommended that the lips be exfoliated too?

Answer

Hello and thank you for your question!

When exfoliating your skin, it is best to avoid lips and the delicate skin around your eyes. It is best to use products specifically designed for the lips due to the mucous membrane and delicate nature of the skin on your lips. Over exfoliation can cause increased dryness and cracking of the lips. Dermalogica offers home remedies for dry lips. The Renewal Lip Complex is a sophisticated daily treatment with a patented polypeptide restores delicate tissue, minimizes contour lines and helps prevent the signs of aging. Vitamin E fights damaging free radicals (Reactive Oxygen Species) while a moisturizing blend of Avocado Oil, combined with Shea and Cocoa Seed butters, quickly smoothes rough, uneven lips. Contains no artificial fragrance or colour.
