Homemade Lip scrub

[MrsBombshell]

If you want to buy something, C.O. bigelow makes a nice lip exfoliant (it's like ~$5-$7) that's sugary and minty.

(you can buy @ Bath & Body Works)

I second this recommendation! Usually I will just use the toothbrush to exfoliate and that works fine, but for a little something extra I absolutely love the C.O. Bigelow Mint Lip Scrub. It smells great and makes your lips so soft. For around $5, you can't beat it. I just tried the cult favorite Sara Happ Lip Scrub and was SO disappointed! C.O. Bigelow is so much better for so much cheaper.

Great answer! i have always had really dry and flaky lips- esp when my allergies are flaring up! I have had allergy problems since i was a child and went undiagnosed with constant strep throat and tonsilitis and just plan being sick all the time... and i also grind my teeth which means i end up snoring (with having year round allergies & sickness my mouth is open at night which means dry lips with the constant air on my lips) So it may be a misdiagnosis on my part since it could be my diet or genetics, who knows, who cares but i have never found anything that works. I have also been using Carmex for years since it was the only thing that hydrated or at least "provided relief" to my lips but over the years i have come to the realization that maybe Carmex is addictive & may be making my lips worse in the end since i always have to apply the Carmex all day long- so i have tried your suggestions & my lips are perfect but pretty dang great- i can actually wear a lipgloss & hopefully soon, lipstick! i could never do it before since they always looked horrible! so THANKS SO VERY MUCH!!

White or brown sugar will work for this sweet recipe. In a lidded plastic bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of sugar with ½ teaspoon of olive oil. Dip your finger in the mix and rub it on your lips for about 10 to 15 seconds. Rinse the scrub off with warm water and follow up your treatment with petroleum jelly. Pop the lid on a plastic bowl and stash it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it again.
