WFMW: Softer lips


I have been known as a Chapstick addict. In fact, there was a time when I was know to have a chapstick in each pocket.

Yet, my lips were always chapped... until I found this quick little beauty regimen.

Step 1: Exfoliate your lips. Slather your lips with Vaseline. Then use a soft toothbrush to gently rub away any dead skin. Do this once a week or so to keep your lips fresh but not too exfoliated.

Step 2: Wipe off the Vaseline. You'll want to wipe off all "dirty" Vaseline.

Step 3: Slather the Vaseline on again. I do this at night, so it's not as gross as it could be, but it's still pretty weird. Leave the Vaseline on all night. In the morning, you'll have the softest, fullest lips ever. I don't need Chapstick during the day and I'm not constantly licking and chewing on my lips.

I found out yesterday that this method is dermatologically approved. As if there were any doubts. And, some people swear by rubbing Vaseline all over your face, but I can't vouch for that (though Martha does it!).

This works for me. What works for you?
