DIY Lip Scrub

Now i know that we've all been there, with dry and chapped lips, so I think once in a while it's good to exfoliate them. I'm going to tell you a DIY which is much more affordable than other lip scrubs and is just as good. Keep reading for this amazing lip scrub.


This is lush lip scrub in bubblegum and the one on the right is our home made one.

What you'll need :
* sugar( white or brown), this is a very good exfoliator
*oil ( coconut, olive, sunflower etc.) makes your lips soft and moisturised 
*honey, also very moisturising
*cinamon( optional- for added flavour,or colour)
*container ( mine is an old lip balm jar)
*spoon for mixing



Now depending on the size of your container and how dry or moisturised your lips are ,you roughly estimate how much of the ingredients you put in. For example if you have dry lips then you'll put more oil and honey but if you want more exfoliation then apply more sugar.

Just add some sugar into your container, and add some honey.  

 




Now add in any oil ( I'm adding some sunflower oil, with vitamin E)' and stir.





Now this is optional, but if you like the taste of cinamon you could add it, which will give it a slight taste and a hint of colour.



If it's too hard ,be sure to add more oil, but if it's too soft add some more sugar.

And there you have it ,your very own freshly made lip scrub. Just apply to the lips and massage with finger, or for even more exfoliation use an old toothbrush. This is a great idea for gifts, just add a bow and..... Wow!




After add your favourite lip balm and enjoy your luscious lips
