Want to Have Lips Like Angelina Jolie?

One of the sexiest assets a woman can have is her lips. While most of us are not blessed with that bee stung pout, showing your pucker some TLC may just be what you need to perfect your look.

Just like a sponge, your lips plump up when they're exposed to moisture and dry out when dehydrated. The age old saying about drinking plenty of water is a great way to ensure your pucker is sufficiently moisturized. A good lip balm should also have a permanent place in your make up bag, just make sure it contains hydrating ingredients like beeswax, vitamin E, Shea butter or jojoba oil to provide moisturizing benefits to keep your lips supple. Eat fluid packed fruits and vegetables like grapefruit, strawberries, spinach and celery and stock up on foods rich in Vitamins A, B and C.

Lips are the most sensitive part of the body and most vulnerable to the weather. Because they don't have sebaceous glands unlike the rest of the face, dry and chapped lips are common in cold and dry weather. Sun damage is another factor to wary about; lips don't have melanin to protect them from the sun's harsh rays. Your lipstick should contain sunscreen to prevent aging and wrinkling. Also, go for lip balms with sunscreen and natural oils such as almond or apricot; apply at least 5 minutes before stepping out of the house. Resist the urge to lick your lips as saliva evaporates quickly and damages the protective barrier, leaving lips even drier than before.

Treat lines around the mouth caused by the sun, smoking and aging with the same care given to facial wrinkles. Look for anti aging chemical peels and creams with retinol; apply everyday before going to bed. Stay away from matte lipsticks that are extremely drying and tend to exaggerate lines; satin lipsticks are more flattering. Another option is to use lip filler before applying lipstick to help smooth out fine lines and avoid bleeding.

For kiss worthy lips, follow these 4 steps.

1. Place a small amount of Vaseline on a soft bristled toothbrush. Gently brush lips to remove dead skin then rinse off with warm water after leaving the scrub on for one minute.

2.Take a washcloth and soak it in warm water. Place a finger in the clothe and slowly rub the damp cloth all over your lips. This helps to remove flaky skin and dirt.

3. Take sure lips are dry and slather on a generous amount of conditioning lip balm or any gooey lip treatment.

4. Repeat the 3 steps up to three times a week for soft supple lips 24/7.
