8 Lip Masks That’ll Leave You With A Soft, Plump Pout That’s Oh-So-Kissable!

Your lips tend to dry out faster than the rest of your skin and hydration is the key to keep them protected. The one product that we all love and regularly use to keep our lips soft and moisturised is the humble lip balm. But is that enough? Well, our lip skin is thinner and more sensitive than the rest of our body and therefore, it’s more prone to damage. So it definitely deserves much more attention too. And lip masks are the new way to do it.

Whether you want to plump up your under-eye skin or get rid of frizzy hair, there’s a mask out there that’s got you covered. But recently, there has been an influx of mask options hitting the market specifically for your lips. Yep, you read that right! The hero product not only keeps your lips moisturised, but it also smoothens them. A good lip mask usually contains all the right vitamins and minerals including vitamin C and E, hyaluronic acid, collagen, and glycerin.
