All-Natural DIY Lip Scrub (Just 3 Ingredients)

October 1, 2018

I don’t know about you, but my lips are almost always rough and chapped. My pour hubby feels the brunt of it the most. He never says anything, but I know my lips aren’t always very kissable.

So I decided to do something about it. Instead of spending gobs of money on lip creams and sticks that don’t really do anything, I made my own DIY lip scrub recipe with items that I already have in my kitchen pantry.

Vanilla Sugar Ingredients:

1 tsp of coconut oil
1 tsp of vanilla extract
3 tsp of sugar

sugar vanilla extract and coconut oil in bowls

Brown Sugar Honey Ingredients:

1 tsp of coconut oil
1 tsp of honey
3 tsp of brown sugar

brown sugar honey coconut oil in cups

Instructions:

Step 1: Mix the ingredients together in a bowl.

Step 2: Place in a sealed container. (I used a stackable bead organizer available at craft stores.)

Step 3: Take a finger full of the mixture and rub on your lips. The sugar will exfoliate and the coconut oil will moisturize your lips.

Step 4: Get ready for some serious smooching!
