This is what is medically called the "danger triangle." 3. Wear a mask in winter. Friends who often go out must wear a mask. This can effectively maintain the temperature and humidity of the lips and avoid dryness and dehydration. 4. Apply honey. When your lips are dry, you can use a cotton swab to dip some honey or vegetable oil and apply it on your lips. It can not only moisturize the skin, but also inhibit the growth of bacteria and avoid infection caused by lip breakage.
