Hey girlie 🙂 You can use the same exfoliator you use for your face and gently use it on your lips as well. Or a great trick is to take a soft baby toothbrush, wet it, and gently exfoliate your lips moving the brush in circles. Your lips can get dry and flaky during the winter, so use a great lip balm at night & throughout the day (my fav is Rosebud Lip Salve from Sephora/Urban Outfitters/American Apparel). This will make sure you have a smooth, moisturized surface before applying your lipstick color 🙂
