Especially with the cold starting to blow in here at my home, I have to start taking better care of my skin and lips. The lip routine I'm about to share is what I do everyday and if very helpful to do because it will help take care of your lips.
1. Lip Scrub (scrub your lips!) scrubbing your lips is a way to help prevent your lips to chap and have flakes show up when you wear lipgloss and lipstick (I know that has happen a bunch to me before) but ever since I started scrubbing my my lips, my lips doesn't flake. Using a lip scrub acts like a exfoliator to help clean off dead skin off your lips. However, I use a tooth brush which also do the same thing. So after I am done brushing my teeth, I would take the bristles and rub my lips with it, exfoliating my lips.

2. Lip Balm (moisturize your lips!) moisturizing your lips is the absolute must! They help your lips from chapping in the cold and helps keep them lush and beautiful. Also, I learned that using lip balm before applying lipgloss and lipstick will help prevent the flaking of your lips and the sticky feeling. The lip balm will ensure the lipstick/lipgloss to glide right on. I usually moisturize my lips in the morning before applying lipstick and lipgloss and at night before I go to bed. Also, lip balm is something to carry with you everyday because it will help keep them from chapping during the day and can even add a bit of shine, acting like lipgloss.

3. Lip Butter (the 3 in 1 step!) this 3 in 1 product from Revlon (also something similar by L'Oreal) is a product that is helpful when I don't have anytime or on the go. It is a lip balm, lipstick, and lipgloss all in one. I am a huge fan of multifunctional products and this is a must have because it does all three at once saving you time and money!
4. Lipstick (coloring those lips!) I love lipsticks but going to high school I feel kind of uncomfortable of wearing bright colors, bright reds, or deep colors to school because most of them usually go without lipstick. But I do wear the nudes, pink and light corals and having an obsession brewing now! But lipsticks help add to outfits giving them a statement and a pop of color! Rock those lipsticks! (:
5. Lipgloss (glossing/finishing touch!) Lipgloss is like the sealer and the bow on the whole package. The give the give more colors and give the shine in the gloss. I also have a huge collection of gloss, but I know for a fact that boys don't really like lipgloss because they make lips sticky and unappealing. But also in my opinion I don't like my lips too shiny because it looks like I have grease all over my lips. However, I do wear lip gloss using a lip brush to I am able to control it from going over my face and minimize the amount of gloss used therefore minimizing the shine!
