Victoria Tatham of Kiss Blush and Tell shares her fave tips for keeping lips plump and moisturised throughout winter, as well as her top products for helping you keep that pout perfect.

HYDRATE

• Keep a super-hydrating lip salve next to your bed and make sure it’s the last thing you apply each night. That way it will stay put and you will wake up with plump, hydrated lips.
• Drink lots of water - it's the number one way to keep your skin and lips hydrated.
• Old classics like Vaseline and Zambuk are great on-the-go hydrating products. 
• A lip treatment can work wonders. Try Dr Hauschka's Lip Care Stick.

EXFOLIATE

• Pop a bit of your favourite lip balm on a recyclable mascara wand. The bristles will give your lips the perfect amount of exfoliation and the balm will add that bit of hydration so it’s not too abrasive. This tip works wonders! 
• Another great DIY trick is to mix some caster sugar with a cream - use this to exfoliate your lips in between lipstick or lip balm application.
• A regular facial exfoliator with fine granules also does the trick.

PROTECT 

• Use a lip balm with an SPF 20 or more in it. The skin on our lips is so sensitive and can get easily pigmented. Get into a good habit of applying a lip SPF, especially when exercising outdoors.
