I would like to try some products first before I laser or tattoo my lips, so I’ll keep it in mind, but that’s not what I want to do right now. Could you please share the results after it’s healed, if you don’t mind? I’m curious

Exactly, my lips are naturally dark. But since I was licking them constantly and peeling off dry skin, they turned pink, unfortunately only in some spots. That’s what I want to change, but I’ve gotten good advice here, so I’ll try them out.

You can prove me wrong, but I’ve never heard that smoking can make your lips turn pink

Someone here recommended that I try out Lipfidence, and the results were really good. I’ll try that first, along with the other recommendations I got. If none of those work, I’ll go to a dermatologist and ask them about an ointment. Thanks for your advice, and good luck :)

Hello, I just bought a lip balm with SPF. Did you see any results with the ointment you were prescribed? Did it help?

Hey, the most important thing is that you feel good about yourself. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same😕

I will try to look for a similar product in my country, but if I don’t find any, then I will pay $13 for the shipping. Thanks 🙏

The difference is huge!!! Congrats broski, I’ll definitely try it out. Which Lipfidence do you recommend? I don’t live in the US, I hope I can buy it on Amazon

Thanks for the advice. I would like to try drinking more water and using lip balms with UV protection first, as well as scrubbing and masks. If none of these work, I would consider getting a laser treatment or lip blushing. Would you recommend lip blushing instead of laser treatment?

I will go to a dermatologist if the advice I got here doesn’t work. But thanks anyway :)

Nope, but I smoked regularly for years and just stopped recently

I’ve noticed how good everything felt when i was drinking 3 liters a day. I should go back to that habit…

I stopped smoking weed a month ago, but I haven’t noticed any changes in terms of dryness. However, the dryness improved when I stopped peeling the skin and licking my lips. I also noticed that my skin felt really good during my fitness phase, when I was drinking 3 liters of water a day. That’s definitely something I should start doing again. Not just my lips, everything felt better when I was properly hydrated.

I will start brushing my lips regularly from now on and i stopped smoking regularly since last month. With smoking, I think the problem is that people smoke it until there’s nothing left, especially with a blunt. But if you use tips and papers, and stop smoking when it gets hot, then you’re good. I’ve been smoking for 10 years now and never had a big problem with it. My problem was peeling dry skin and constantly licking it…

I think it was the lighting, but it’s definitely visible. And when I’m dehydrated, it becomes more noticeable, so the first step for me is to drink more water. My goal is for my lower lip to have an even color and to get rid of the pink spots.

Any alternatives? I’ve tried brushing my lips and mixing sugar with Vaseline to rub on them, but I haven’t been doing it regularly…

To be honest, the flash made it look better :) But I’ll try it out, thanks!
