Learn how to apply, store, and build a routine with doTERRA spa Lip Balm Original. Simple steps for soft, comfortable lips every day.

Quick answer

Apply doTERRA spa Lip Balm Original to clean, dry lips as the first step in your daily lip care routine, then reapply as needed and store it away from heat and direct sunlight to keep the balm smooth and comfortable.

Why a simple routine beats constant reapplication

It’s tempting to swipe on more balm every time your lips feel dry, but over-applying can mask the real issue. If your lips stay dry despite frequent use, the cause may be dehydration, dry indoor air, or habits like lip licking. A steady routine—gentle cleansing, one application, and smart storage—often works better than constant touch-ups.

When to adjust your approach

In cold, windy weather or dry indoor heating, you may need to reapply more often, but still aim for a thin, even layer rather than a thick coat. If you wear lip color, apply balm first as a base, blot excess, then apply color. At night, a slightly heavier layer can help lips recover while you sleep.

Your daily lip care steps with doTERRA spa Lip Balm Original

Start with clean, dry lips: Gently wipe your lips with a soft, damp cloth or use a mild lip scrub once or twice a week to remove flaky skin. Pat dry before applying balm. Applying to damp lips can cause the balm to sit unevenly and feel less comfortable.
Apply a thin, even layer: Swipe the balm across your upper and lower lips, then press your lips together to distribute it evenly. Use a light layer for daytime and a slightly heavier layer at night. Using too much balm can feel greasy and may encourage frequent licking, which dries lips further.
Reapply only when needed: Reapply after eating, drinking, or when lips feel dry—typically every few hours. Avoid constant reapplication out of habit. If you need to reapply more than every hour or two, check whether dehydration or dry air is the real cause.
Store it smartly: Keep your balm at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and hot cars. Close the cap tightly after each use. Heat can soften or melt the balm, making it messy and less effective.
Make it a morning and night habit: Apply balm as part of your morning routine after brushing your teeth, and again before bed. This helps maintain comfortable lips around the clock. A consistent routine works better than occasional heavy application.
