BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Beauty Basics Lip Wrinkles

Did you know;
Repeatedly sipping drinks through a straw can lead to the same lip wrinkles as smoking!

Are you serious? How do you know that? Im starting to think twice about using straws now.

Think about it, pucker up
I read it in a health magazine, when i find it again i'll let you know which one.
It makes sense sipping on a straw your lips are doing the same thing as dragging on a cigarette. ;o(

I heard the same thing, sport cups with straws and drinking straws can cause fine lines around the mouth. It's the repetition of the sucking action.

Well, if you have kids, you might want to think twice about letting them constantly drink soft drinks from fast food places which use a straw. Also, those juice boxes.

I read an article several years ago about how smoking aged your skin. That's when I quit. I'd started as a teen because it was a "cool" thing to do but a few years later, it didn't seem so cool.

Well, no ore drinking from a straw for me.

My mom had wrinkles on her upper lip, but not bad, when she was in her 30s and she smoked. She never stopped smoking and her wrinkles are horrible. You could do microdermabrasion, it's expensive, but the wrinkles will still come back if you continue to smoke.

Looking good sometimes has to be a sacrifice.
