Many factors can cause your lips to darken. Smoking, pollution, and sun damage, excess tea or coffee drinking can negatively impact the appearance of your lips. Sometimes darker lips are genetically inherited and are most commonly found in dark complexioned people.Smoking also leads to this condition.Cigarettes contain nicotine which can darken lips. Due to heat from cigarette, tobacco, tar instantly dehydrates your lips and darkens.
1. Using Lemon and Honey:
Mix equal parts of lemon juice and honey and gently apply on to your lips and leave it on for sometime like half an hour or so and then wipe it of with wet cloth. Doing this regularly you can get rid of darker lips This works on lips to peel off the tan with citrus extracts and nourish with honey to add pink color to the lips.2. Beetroot
Beetroot is one of the best and the easiest home remedies for dark lips. Beet root stains the lips pink. Take a piece of beetroot squeeze it and apply juice on your lips and leave it on for some time and allow your skin to soak all the juicefor sometime. After it is dried again apply some more juice and leave it for some time. By doing this 3-4 times you can have rosy/pink lips . . This will make your lips pinkish in color.3. Lemon
Lemon acts as a natural bleaching agent. It is traditionally used to lighten dark spots and patches on the skin.Lemon juice works to exfoliate your lip’s skin and brings up new tone on your lips. squeeze lemon and apply juice over your lips and leave it on for 5-10 minutes and then wash it off with water. Don't allow your skin to leave it on for more time because citric acid in the juice can cause excessive peeling of skin and can cause tingling, burning . You can also apply lemon juice over your lips after applying any moisturizer on your lips. This is more safer because there will be less peeling off effect from citric acid. If you don't use a moisturizer before applying lemon juice over your lips, then you have to apply it after washing it off to prevent excessive peeling of skin.4. Kojic Acid

Kojic acid prevents formation of melanin, exfoliates and penetrates into skin easily. Vitamin C also helps in reducing the mealanin synthesis. Just apply it over the lips before going to sleep and wash it off the next morning. It contains all natural substances. So even if you accidentally swallow it while asleep it does no harm. I even swallowed a little and it has sour, metallic like taste. Tastes somewhat similar to that of lemon juice. It will be absorbed into skin quickly and when it is applied over lips it isn't visible. It looks just like that of moisturizer applied to lips, which makes even easier to apply while going to office, college, any work or else.
