I've been wanting to try lip scrub for a while now as my lips have been feeling dry and chapped. Instead of paying £6 for a small tub from a shop I decided to make my own.
Ingredients and equipment needed:
- Brown Sugar (White Sugar can work too!)
- Vaseline or Petroleum Jelly
- Strawberry Chapstick (or a flavour you prefer)
- Honey (optional)
- A small tub
- A teaspoon
I mixed the sugar, vaseline and honey together using the end of a spoon as the spoon was a bit too big to mix them together. I cut the end off a strawberry chapstick and added it to the mix which turned the mix a light pink colour to add a slight pink/red pigment as well as more moisturising when I put it on my lips. The scrub is in small tub which I got out of a travel bottle set that I bought a while ago. You can either store it in a cool dry place or a fridge. I'm not sure how long it'll last but for the quick amount of time and no cost (as I had all the ingredients already) it took its worth making again.
It works great and is a pretty colour too! Will you be making your own lip scrub?
