What causes dry lips and cold sores?
Dry lips often result from external factors such as cold, wind, dry air, or excessive sun exposure. Dehydration, lip licking, and certain medications can also cause the lips to dry out more quickly and become sensitive. When the skin of the lips is damaged, cracks and irritations can develop that feel uncomfortable.
Cold sores are usually caused by a virus and often recur during times of stress, fatigue, or weakened immunity. The skin around the lips can then feel burning, sensitive, and painful. A nourishing lip balm helps to soothe the skin and protect against further drying.
Old Dutch Lip Balm contains moisturizing ingredients such as Aloe Vera and Vitamin E that help retain moisture and keep the lips supple. This makes dry and chapped lips feel comfortable and cared for more quickly.
Natural ingredients for care and protection
The strength of Old Dutch Lip Balm lies in the combination of nourishing and protective ingredients. L-Lysine is an essential amino acid often used to support sensitive lips and cold sores. It helps care for the lips and supports maintaining healthy and supple skin.
Calendula is known for its soothing properties and is widely used in care products for dry and chapped skin. This natural extract helps protect the lips from drying external influences such as cold, wind, and dry air, making the lips feel comfortable and cared for.
Vitamin E acts as a powerful antioxidant and supports the skin's natural recovery. Aloe Vera also provides intensive hydration and forms a protective layer over dry and damaged lips. Together, these ingredients help keep the lips soft, supple, and well protected.
Daily care for soft and healthy lips
Regular use of a lip balm helps prevent dryness and irritation of the lips. Especially during cold winter days, sunny summer days, or dry weather conditions, the lips need extra care. By applying the balm several times a day, the lips stay better hydrated and protected.
For sensitive or easily irritated lips, it is also important to care for them with gentle products. Avoid excessive lip licking and ensure the lips remain protected from drying external influences. A nourishing lip balm supports the natural repair of the skin.
Thanks to the combination of moisturizing, soothing, and protective ingredients, Oud Hollandsche Lippenbalsem is suitable for daily use. The balm helps keep the lips comfortable, supple, and well cared for throughout the year.
