Why Are My Lips So Dry In The Cold?
As the crisp fall air settles in and indoor heating kicks on, your lips feel it first. That tight, irritated, flaky feeling isn’t just annoying- it’s your lips telling you they’re dehydrated, exposed, and under-protected. According to dermatologists, lips are uniquely vulnerable because they lack oil glands and are more exposed to winds, temperature shifts, and dry air.
Here’s what’s happening:
- The chill and low humidity pull moisture out of your lips, and because your lips have no oil glands, they can’t replenish themselves on their own.
- Many “lip balms” include irritating ingredients like menthol, phenol, artificial fragrance or flavor oils that can actually *worsen* dryness or trigger allergic reactions.
- The result? You keep re-applying balm, but the dryness comes back faster — because the barrier isn’t being healed, it’s just being masked.
What your lips really need this season:
You don’t just need any balm- you need a balm that:
Deeply nourishes the lip skin so it can recover,
Protects from moisture loss in dry, windy conditions,
Avoids irritants like fragrances, flavor oils, menthol or camphor that can trigger flare-ups,
And uses ingredients your skin *recognizes and absorbs*, not fillers that sit on top.
Enter The Good Moo 🐄✨
That’s where The Good Moo comes in. Our lip balm is crafted for the season your lips dread- using a formula that’s built to heal and defend.
Grass-fed beef tallow: a rich, skin-compatible moisturizer that mimics your body’s natural oils and helps restore your lip barrier.
Olive oil + beeswax: two heavy-hitter ingredients that lock in hydration and give your lips a protective shield against cold & wind.
Texas wildflower honey + vitamin E: nourishment and antioxidant protection in one — helping repair damage and restore softness.
Plastic-free tin + zero artificial fragrance or flavor oils: because your body deserves clean ingredients and your values demand eco-responsibility.
How to use it (so it actually works)
1. Apply in the morning before heading outside.
2. Re-apply after eating/drinking.
3. Use a small amount before bed so your lips can soak in the nourishment overnight.
4. Sip water and keep indoor humidity up — the balm can help *but* moisture from inside counts too!
The difference you’ll feel
Once your lips are given the right tools, you’ll notice:
- Less flaking, less cracking — because the skin is repairing, not just being covered.
- Softness that holds longer — you won’t reach for your balm every hour.
- A natural, healthy lip texture and glow — because you’re treating your lips like they deserve it.
