Red lips and dry
My lips are dark red and dry sometimes and I hate that. Red lips make they look thicker and make me look tough. I want to look friendly. I'm a boy and I don't want my lips look red. In the winer, my lips look natural, they aren't too red but in the summer they look red.
What causes your lips red? and if you don't want red lips, what can you do?

The cold, dry air of winter can take a toll on your skin -- especially on the lips.
Here are suggestions to help protect your lips from painful drying andchapping, courtesy of the U.S. National Library of Medicine:
Drink plenty of fluids to keep your skin well-hydrated.
Protect and treat lips with a beeswax lip balm or petroleum jelly.
Keep a humidifier running in your home to prevent the air from becoming too dry.
Apply sunscreen to your lips.
Avoid too much exposure to the sun or wind.
