So,i have heard a lot of people say that excess use of Vaseline petroleum jelly turns the lips black..i use it n my lips are turning black..
what r the natural methods of making lips pink?
i need the ghar ke nushke..my nani tells me that applying malai on the lips helps but i haven’t tried..
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
I've noticed that avoiding biting/licking your lips and drinking plenty of water can ligthen the color some. And eating a healthy diet (including iron) can give a more rosy color as well.
As for home remedies, I've heard of the malai tip and even one that involves lemon juice and glyerine.....but they just seem uncomfortable...especially the idea of applying malai.
The idea behind the lemon juice and malai would be that they're bleaching agents and contain acids (citric, lactic) that exfoliate.
I wonder if Gina would know whether or not a more stronger exfoliant...would work. I know it's advised not to apply hydroquinone and retin on the lips...but I'm curious about the effectiveness of something like an AHA at a higher concentration...something stronger than lemon/milk..but not abrasive.
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
I highly doubt vaseline was the cause of darkening of the lips. Some people just have darker lips while some people have more pinkier ones, I dont think much can be done unless you JUST noticed your lips turning dark.
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
The sun can play a role too. Maybe try chapstick that contains sunblock. Also since it's Ramzan...it's natural to be dehydrated and this will also reflect i the the appearance of your lips.

apply saffron.

Yeah,M_was_here, just noticed them turning dark..they were always pink..
like redvelvet said,could be the fact that they are dehydrated and also chapstick/lip balm application has also reduced becuz of the rozas...and also the sun!
can anyone suggest good lip balms and chapsticks?i used body shop but it dint really help keep my lips hydrated or prevent much chapping..
@redvelvet,i dont like the idea of appyling malai either..
@theway - thanks :) saffron soaked in milk or anything?

There's a cream some ppl use to lighten their nipples ('Blush' something?).. I think it works on lips as well..
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!

2- i always moisturize my lips very well.i use vaseline,sebamed chapstick spf30,sometimes i put pure coconut oil and vit e oil…*how can i make my lips pink plzz help girls *
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
Scrubbing them a toothbrush works. It plumps and soften lips. It's also a very good remedy for chapped lips.
everyone try this. Apply toothpaste on lips . without fluoride or u know those minty things. I use Darlie. Jo plain wala ho no Color n stuff. apply on lips for 1-2 hr and wash. even one hr will do. It's a quick fix. My sis left it overnight and went to sleep and her lips became pink but dry for a day so don't use it for long. I tried this fix and it worked- instant pinky lips
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!

Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
buying a pink lipstick would be the fastest solution : )
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
I had the same problem when i start using plumb colored lipsticks....
I went over to pink n red shades... And somehow those shades mademy lips healthy pink again (even without lipstick)...just moisturize ur lips ....dont use cheap gloss n drink a lot of water :)
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
i doubt the vaseline thing is true.....I've been using vaseline as lip balm for years, no problem whatsoever
Re: Tips to get Pink Lips!
maybe it has to do with dehydration or sun exposure.. try to stay hydrated and eat healthy.. it will take some time to go back to normal
