How to Make Brown Sugar Lip Scrub
Note: be sure to use pure essential oils when making this brown sugar lip scrub, and not any oils that have fake flavorings or perfumes in them.
Many years ago, I first tried a commercial lip scrub. My lips had felt rough and dry and looked flaky and old, and I wanted some relief. Once I exfoliated my lips using that commercial scrub they felt, and looked, so much better! I figured that it could not be too difficult to make my own lip scrub (and it isn’t!), so 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.
