養脾養陰滋潤雙唇
秋風呼呼令皮膚處於乾燥狀態，嘴唇沒有汗腺或皮脂腺分泌油脂保護，亦缺乏角質層避免水分散失，所以在乾燥天氣下嘴唇顯得特別脆弱，輕則脫皮、紅腫，重則乾裂流血。不少人勤力為雙唇塗抹潤唇膏，但滋潤效果總是不持久，為甚麼？從中醫角度來看，「脾開竅於口，其華在唇」，如果脾胃功能不佳，嘴唇則無法得到滋潤，脾胃積熱亦會引發嘴唇乾裂。所以想保持雙唇滋潤有光澤，可以從健脾方面入手，多吃健脾的白米、淮山、芡實、蓮子、薯仔、番薯等，每日飲米水，避免進食辛辣及生冷食物，因為辛辣食物傷津耗氣，而生冷食物會妨礙脾胃運化功能。陰虛體質人士亦容易出現嘴唇乾燥情況，宜早睡早起，避免熬夜晚睡，適量食用蜂蜜、百合、無花果、雪耳、花旗參、麥冬等，有助潤燥養陰。有需要時可以敷個唇膜，有助鎖住嘴唇水份，紓緩嘴唇乾燥脫皮問題。
簡易鎖水唇膜
材料：凡士林適量、保鮮紙一小塊、暖毛巾
做法：在嘴唇上厚塗一層凡士林，蓋上保鮮紙，敷上暖毛巾約10分鐘，最後抹去凡士林即可。
花旗參麥冬茶
功效：滋陰清熱生津，紓緩長期晚睡、經常口乾、嘴唇乾燥等症狀。
材料：花旗參1湯匙、麥冬1湯匙、蜂蜜適量
做法：材料洗淨放保溫瓶，以熱開水沖洗一遍，注入熱開水焗5-10分鐘至香味透出，待水稍微邊暖和即可加入適量蜂蜜。此茶可反覆沖泡至味淡

Nourish the spleen and yin to moisten the lips
The autumn wind causes the skin to remain dry constantly. The lips do not have sweat glands and sebum secreted by the sebaceous glands as protection, and do not have the stratum corneum to prevent water loss. Therefore, our lips tend to be fragile during the dry weather, and they would peel easily, become swollen, and sometimes even bleed.
Many people rely on lip balm but its moisturizing effect is not always long lasting. Why is that? From the perspective of Chinese Medicine, “Lips are the windows to the spleen, and essence are in the lips”. If the spleen does not function well, the lips will not stay hydrated, and the accumulated heat in the spleen and stomach may cause the dry lips to crack.
In order to keep the lips luscious and plump, we need to strengthen the spleen by eating more white rice, Chinese yam, gorgon nut (‘qian shi’), lotus seed, potato and sweet potato. Drink rice water daily, and avoid eating hot, spicy, raw and cold food, ad hot and spicy food will exhaust the body fluid and the qi, whereas raw and cold food can obstruct the spleen’s and stomach’s function in regulating the circulatory system.
Individuals with yin deficiency will easily develop dry lips, thus they should sleep and wake up early; and avoid sleeping late. Consume an appropriate amount of honey, lily, fig fruit, snow fungus, American ginseng and dwarf lilyturf roots (‘mai dong’), as they can help moisten the dryness and nourish the yin. If need be, apply lips mask, as it can help lock in the moisture, relieve dryness on the lips to prevent it from developing cracks.

Method: Apply a thick coat of Vaseline on the lips; cover the lips with a plastic wrap first, followed by a warm towel. 10 minutes later, wipe off the Vaseline from the lips.
