The winter can be brutal on lips. Often ours chafe, peel and split. You can soften them and improve their texture with store bought lip scrubs, but before you hit the shops, try this very simple DIY lip scrub!
DIY SKINCARE Exfoliating Lip Scrub
-
Clean Container
-
4 Aspirin - The inexpensive type without a coating
-
2 Teaspoons brown sugar
-
2 Teaspoons of honey
-
1 Teaspoon of Olive Oil
-
1 Vitamin E capsule
In your clean container, add in the aspirin and a few drops of water to break them down. Mix in all the other ingredients and your lip scrub paste is ready! You can omit the aspirin and add in more brown sugar if you like. If your consistency is too dry, add in more extra virgin olive oil. If your scrub is too wet, add in more brown sugar. You can use your finger or a toothbrush to apply the scrub to your lips.
