Make your lips pink🌺

 How to make lips pink❓❓

Many people view naturally pink lips as a sign of beauty or health. However, lips come in many colors, sizes, and shapes. It is possible to change the color of the lips naturally, but often, the effect is temporary.

In this article, we will look at ways people can get pink lips naturally by using some simple home remedies and lip care techniques.

We will also look at whether having pink lips is beneficial, other factors that may discolor the lips, and whether there are any long-term cosmetic procedures that change the color of the lips.



What causes dark lips?

As with skin tone, the color of the lips will vary from person to person. People with darker skin tend to have darker lips. This is normal and occurs due to an increased amount of melanin in the skin. Melanin gives the skin its color.

People also can develop darker lips as a result of hyperpigmentation. This occurs when areas of the skin become darker than the surrounding area. Common causes of hyperpigmentation include:

Pregnancy

smoking

sun exposure

some medications, including antimalarial drugs and the oral antibioticTrusted Source minocycline

a medical condition, such as Addison’s disease

People with naturally dark lips may be able to temporarily make them more pink using home remedies, while those with hyperpigmentation may find that treatments for this skin condition help most.

How to get pink lips naturally

The following home treatments may help people keep their lips hydrated and smooth, while also temporarily increasing blood flow to the area:

Lip scrubs

Gentle exfoliation can help remove dry skin that could be giving the lips a dull, rough appearance. It can also stimulate circulation, resulting in temporarily pink lips.

There are many lip scrubs available in stores or online. Alternatively, people can make their own by mixing sugar or salt with an oil such as sweet almond or coconut oil.

To use a lip scrub:

Gently massage the scrub onto dry lips.

Rinse off and pat the lips dry.

Apply a lip balm.

The skin on the lips is delicate, so do not rub hard. Do not use lip scrubs more than once or twice per week, and do not use scrubs designed for the face or body, as these may be too harsh.


Lip massage

Massage can boost circulation to the lips, which may make them appear pinker. People can gently massage the lips once a day with a food-grade oil, such as coconut oil, before rinsing them off. Alternatively, people can leave the oil on overnight as a hydrating treatment.

Lip masks

Lip masks are treatments that involve applying a substance to the lips, leaving it on for a set amount of time, and then washing it off.

Some people report that lip masks containing turmeric improve the health and appearance of their lips. A 2018 systematic reviewTrusted Source notes that turmeric may reduce hyperpigmentation on the face, which may explain why this ingredient is popular. However, more research is necessary to conclusively prove it works on the lips.


To make a turmeric lip mask:


Mix turmeric powder with coconut oil.

Apply to the lips and leave on for 15 minutes.

Wash off and pat the lips dry.

Note that turmeric can cause temporary staining of the skin around the lips.

Peppermint oil lip balm

Some cosmetic companies use peppermint oil in lip balm to create a naturally pink look. Peppermint oil contains menthol, a compound that can dilate the blood vessels when applied topically, according to a 2016 study. This may result in temporarily flushed lips.

People can purchase lip balm that contains peppermint in stores or online. However, the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) advises that a person should avoid menthol and peppermint if they have chapped lips, as it can be irritating.
