Dry lips? Here’s a QUICK AND EASY DIY LIP SCRUB

If there is one thing that is consistent during the winter months, is the general feeling of dry lips or skin. Tell me if I’m wrong! Every winter, I run to my local Superdrugs or Savers to stock up on lips balms and lip oils. To restore ANY type of moisture to my lips. But it’s never enough…

Until I started to incorporate lip scrubs into my routine.

Growing up, homemade lip scrubs and body scrubs are something that me and my family used to always DIY ourselves. We’d sit on the kitchen table mixing oils with a grainy ingredient to scrub away dead skin.

However, as I got older I kinda got lazy and stopped. I started purchasing lip scrubs from stores since I thought it was much more convenient. Of which I’m sure are not all-natural, and must have a bunch of preservatives.

The DIY lip scrub that you will find below is a very popular choice of at-home lip scrub. It’s super easy, cheap to make and can last you for a while if properly preserved. Another great thing is that you can use it all over your body, even your feet.

So, if you want smooth and moisturised lips in quick and easy steps, then look no further!

This DIY lip scrub with honey is bound to make your lips super soft and moisturised. Especially during the harsh winter months. And all you’ll need are 2 ingredients! That is right, you will only need 2 ingredients and you’ll have smoother and softer lips in less than 5 minutes.

Ingredients:

• 2 teaspoons of Sugar 
• 1 teaspoon of Honey 

Directions: 

Get a small container of choice. I personally like to use small travel containers. They are usually cheap and can be reused. However, you are free to use glass containers too, if you want to be fancy.

If you are planning on using the lip scrub more than once, make sure that your container has a lid so that you can preserve your lip scrub for multiple uses.

First, add your sugar to your container, then proceed to add the honey. Mix it up with a spoon and there you go! You have your lip scrub!

If the mixture is too grainy for you then you may add more honey. But do keep in mind that you should always strive to have more sugar than honey to have a good exfoliant effect. But of course, you may manipulate the consistency to your liking.

More good news is that this DIY lip scrub can last up to a month! Use it once or a maximum of twice per week to upkeep your lip’s moisture and smoothness.

Just make sure to store it in a cool and dry place.

You also can use this scrub all year round. For glowing and smooth skin in the summertime, and flawless moistured skin or lips during winter.

HAPPY SCRUBBING!
