PMH Skincare Tips
The enchanting holiday season brings along some winter skin woes. Nobody enjoys having chapped and dry lips. Your lips add to your personality and make you appear even more gorgeous, but you may have noticed that they grow dry and you start peeling the skin off your lips from time to time. Because the skin that protects our lips is thin, they grow dry and chapped, especially in the winters.
