Black Lips
I'm a Ex-smoker (smoked for 5 years about 3 cigarette/day) and my lips got turned to black/soot colour due to that. It's been a year since i quit smoking but my lips colour didn't change even after trying some natural methods like exfoliating with honey etc. Can you please help me regarding this ?

The darkness can also be present because of nutritional causes OR because of inflammatory conditions(like seborrheic or perioral dermatitis) OR with a superadded component of perleche. A proper detail examination would be required to try to assess and identify the culprit cause. Also you can use Chaptex lip balm twice a day for a few months. Hope this was helpful.
