Spearmint Lip Scrub
Many years ago, I first tried a commercial lip scrub in the dead of winter when my lips felt rough and dry. After exfoliating, my lips felt sooooo much better! I figured, why not make my own? Making your own lip scrub is economical, and simple to do. I am not sure you can over-scrub with this recipe, but I would caution you not to make a habit of scrubbing your lips daily. This is more of a once-in-a-while thing to make your lips smoother, and softer.
