LUSH just released some lip scrubs and it got me thinking. My lips have been unusually dry and flaky lately and I could really use a lip scrub! Ordering from LUSH, though, would mean having to wait 2 weeks for it to arrive and I am physically incapable of buying just one thing from there. I also can't justify spending a lot of money on something that I can easily make at home.
So, I give to you- the homemade lip scrub!!
It's beyond simple and completely idiot proof (trust me). All you have to do is get a little bowl or glass or plate (whatever!) and put in a teaspoon of sugar. Then slowly add in a tiny amount of Olive Oil. Mix it together until it's a smooth consistency and rub it all over your lips. It can be a tiny bit messy, so be aware of that. Once you've rub it thoroughly over your lips rinse it off with water and you're good to go! Your lips will feel much smoother and softer. They will be dry, though, so be sure to apply your favorite chapstick or lip balm. |
