The 10p daily ritual that’ll stop dry lips in cold weather – and it’s a substitute for lip filler, says one doc

YOU can stop your lips from ever drying out with a 10p daily routine - and it’s even recommended by a dermatologist as a substitute for lip filler. Mark Strom has claimed that applying a hyaluronic acid serum to your lips twice a day, and then covering it with Vaseline afterwards, will give you the most hydrated and plumpest pout of your life.

It comes as heavy snow settled in parts of the UK last night, with temperatures set to plunge even further to -10C. “It’s possible to plump your lips without filler or other injections,” Mark claimed in a now-viral Instagram video. He detailed how drawing upon the deeply hydrating properties of hyaluronic acid, and then sealing them in with a petroleum jelly like Vaseline, will boost lip volume.
“Hyaluronic acid is a humectant that will draw water into the lips, helping plump them up,” Mark said. “Petroleum jelly is occlusive and will prevent water evaporation from the surface of the lips. “This combo works great for preventing chapped lips as well.”.
Hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. When applied to the lips, it draws moisture from the inside to the outer layers. And it’s not a fad, as a number of women claim it actually worked on them. “I tried it and surprisingly it works,” reviewed Jenna Viese.
