Your smile and laughter express your life’s joyful moments and always lift your spirits to new heights, but with those gorgeous smiles, comes the burden of wrinkles, specifically ones around your mouth area.  They say laughter is the best medicine, but should it come at the expense of our beauty? Absolutely not! So ladies, don’t worry about those mean fine lines, because we’ve got a few tips that will make sure you always flash those beautiful pearly whites.

First, you should know that there are two kinds of lines: laugh lines – which are the folds that run from the nose to each corner of the mouth and are formed from years of laughing, smiling and even talking – and perioral lines, which are the fine grooves that appear along the upper lip due to lip pursing.

If you’re looking for a home remedy, here is an effective one. Mix a teaspoon of coconut oil and a teaspoon of brown sugar, massage the mixture over and around your mouth and rinse. This gentle stimulation leads to a temporary, subtle swelling effect that softens the lines around your mouth.

Makeup can also do wonders, especially primer. The latter fills in laugh lines and you can use it on and around your lips. To prevent it from sinking into those lines, apply your daily facial moisturizer and lip balm, wait a few minutes and then apply the primer

Now, draw a huge smile on your face and keep your days bright!
