When you floss, you dislodge food particles and plague. It may be helpful to floss your teeth before you brush so that you can scrub away the food and plague that come out from between your teeth. You may find that this gets your teeth cleaner. Different dentists will give different advice about when to floss, so ask your dentist when they recommend that you floss. Depending on your unique needs, they may recommend you floss after you brush. Flossing is very important for your oral health, so it’s important that you do it every day. However, you might find it hard to do it correctly. Fortunately, you may be able to find a product that works better for you than floss. Try the following:  Floss holders, which are small Y-shaped sticks that hold floss, may help if you’re struggling to hold the floss.

Floss threaders make it easier for you to clean around dental work. A water flosser sprays your teeth with water to help remove extra debris, but it’s not a substitute for flossing.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Give your lips a break from time to time if you're the type that tends to wear lipsticks and stains on a regular basis. Cosmetics can affect the quality of your skin after a while, especially when they're not properly removed. Lip color is also bad about infiltrating the tiny cracks and crevices of your lips where it can be hard to get out later.  Going natural more often will make your lipstick appear more vibrant on occasions when you do wear it. If you're worried about your lips drying out, switch to a tinted lip balm or non-matte liquid lipstick. Get in the habit of applying chapstick or nourishing lip balm daily. Look for brands like Carmex, Burt's Bees and EOS that contain moisturizing agents. Not only do chapsticks and balms form a protective layer on your lips that safeguards them from dry conditions and prevent painful cracking and splitting, they'll also soften them, meaning your lipstick will look better once it's on.  Keep chapstick handy in your purse, car or bedside table so you'll never be caught without it. There's no such thing as too much chapstick. You'll be glad to have it if you wear lipstick a lot or live somewhere with cold, windy weather! Make sure you're drinking plenty of water throughout the day. When it comes to moisturizing, water is the obvious choice and should be your go-to nutrient not just for luscious lips but for healthy everything else. When you're sufficiently hydrated, your lips will appear thick, full and rosy, and will serve as a better base for your lipstick. Most physicians and nutritionists recommend that you drink 8-12 glasses of water a day.
Summary: Let them breathe. Use chapstick or moisturizer. Stay hydrated.
