Do you remember my natural homemade skin scrub taken directly from my
kitchen?
Make sure to use it once or twice per week (I mainly use it for my
face). So today is about your lips.
Today I'm bringing you an
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G lip scrub. I am telling you: I had never scrubbed my lips
before. But I was feeling them quite dry and pale lately, although using lip
balm daily so I had to find out a solution (rather than buying more and more
lip balms!).
I surfed around the internet
and there are tones of videos suggesting this magic tip. And as you can
imagine: all the ingredients come from the kitchen!
Ingredients
- 10 ml of brown sugar
- 5 ml of honey
Elaboration
Choose a small container to
pour the honey.
Right away add the sugar and mix all together. You need to end
up with quite compact dough. If it is too liquid add more sugar and mix again.
Then,
introduce the lip scrub in a closed jar. You can save some of it in a small pot
in your bathroom to use before the night when having your daily face cleaning
routine. I usually keep all the sample pots some cosmetics stores give me such
as The Body Shop, Be+, etc. In this case I used a TBS one.
Clean it carefully and fill
it in with some of the scrub.
Now it is ready to be used!
Pick a small quantity of scrub with your ring finger and spread all over your
lips. Scrub them with a little massage for 1 minute and wash it off.
Mind you that using as
natural honey as possible it is very important (for me!) because your lips will "eat" for a little while. We tend to buy directly from small manufacturers. This time we
bought ours in Lanjarón, Granada:
Alpu-Miel honey brand.
Hope you liked this small tip and let me know if it works for you too!
