[email protected] Moisturising lip balm is an essential cosmetic product to enhance the lips appearance as well as to prevent inflammation or cracked lips. Lip balm with moisturising function formulated using all-natural ingredients is very significant because of the negative side effect awareness among people on using the unnatural or chemically derived ingredients of the lip balm. However, the stability analysis of this natural lip balm must be co nducted to ensure the safety of the product as well as to predict the product shelf life. This study aims to evaluate the stability of carrot lip balm in two weeks under room temperature and refrigerator condition. Three lip balms with different concentration of virgin coconut oil (VCO) to carrot (35:65, 38:62, 43:57) were formulated and tested for their physicochemical properties (texture, colour, pH and spread ability) for two weeks.

  • ECZEMA Tips to Care for Your Skin
    ECZEMA Tips to Care for Your Skin Limit contact with things that can irritate your skin. Some things that may irritate your skin include household cleansers, detergents, aftershave lotions, soap, gasoline, turpentine and other solvents. Try to avoid contact with things that make you break out with eczema. Because soaps and wetness can cause skin irritation, wash your hands only when necessary, especially if you have eczema on your hands. Be sure to dry your hands completely after you wash them. Wear gloves to protect the skin on your hands. Wear vinyl or plastic gloves for work that requires you to have your hands in water. Also, wear gloves when hands will be exposed to anything that can irritate your skin. Wear cotton gloves under plastic gloves to soak up sweat from your hands. Take occasional breaks and remove your gloves to prevent a buildup of perspiration inside your gloves. Wear gloves when you go outside during the winter. Cold air and low humidity can dry your skin, and dryness can make your eczema worse. Wear clothes made of cotton or a cotton blend. Wool and some synthetic fabrics can irritate your skin. Most people with sensitive skin feel better in clothes made of cotton or a cotton blend. Care for your skin in the bath or shower. Bathe only with a mild soap, such as Dove, Basis or Oil of Olay. Use a small amount of soap when bathing. Keep the water temperature cool or warm, not hot. Soaking in the tub for a short time can be good for your skin because the skin’s outer layer can absorb water and become less dry.

  • 1. Opt for a Petroleum, Jelly-Based Lip Balm
    Yerin Kim | October 23, 2019 So you have a crush you're dying to kiss, you have your kissing technique down, and you've even brushed up on different types of kisses and kissing positions to up your makeout game. The only thing that's missing to make this the *perfect* kiss? Smooth lips that are ready to be kissed. You might think soft lips aren't that important, but you'd be surprised what a difference they make when you're in the middle of a makeout. Sure, you can probably get away with simply applying a moisturizing lip balm, or a gloss to give your lips that extra shine. But if you're looking to take your makeout to the next level, we're here to help. We asked Dr. Anna Guanche, author and board-certified celebrity dermatologist for her best tips on making your lips look kissable AF. From what kind of lip balm to use to how often you should exfoliate, we're sharing our best- kept secrets (with help from Dr. Guanche) for achieving velvety smooth lips. 1. Opt for a petroleum, jelly-based lip balm There's a reason Vaseline and Aquaphor lip balms never go out of style. Dr. Guanche suggests using simple formulas with petroleum jelly. They add a protective barrier, seal in skin moisture, AND prevent or sooth chapped, cracked lips. 1 2. Or look for balms with beeswax, vitamin E, and tree nut oils If you're not really into petroleum jelly, Dr. Guanche also recommends lip balms with beeswax to soothe your lips, vitamin E for its antioxidant and healing properties, or tree nut oils such as shea butter to provide moisture.
