Homemade Lips Scrubs




Im a big advocate of D.I.Y beauty products, why spend a lot of money on something you can do yourself.

Key Essentials are Oil, White/Brown Sugar and A Container of your choice.
Use either Brown or White Sugar its your choice, White has a finer consistency than Brown Sugar.

Its up to you to choose whatever one you would rather use, based on the ingredients you have.



Cinnamon Sugar

This one is the easiest to do.

Ingredients
  • White/Brown Sugar
  • Ground Cinnamon
Use your desired amount of sugar (this depends on the size of your container). Add your Cinnamon, Mash it around until the cinnamon is evenly distributed through the sugar and put into your Container. Store in the Fridge in between uses.




Rosemary and Peppermint

Ingredients

  • White/Brown Sugar
  • Fresh Rosemary
  • Peppermint Extract
The peppermint will also cool down your lips and freshen your breath.

Chop the Rosemary into tiny bits before you add it to the bowl and use a folding motion on this one as the sugar will dissolve if your not careful.Add a few drops of Peppermint Extract and put into your Container.






Sweet Honey


Ingredients

  • 1/2 tsp. Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp. Sugar 
  • 1 tsp. Honey


Combine the ingredients, mixing until everything is thoroughly combined, and then put into your Container.



Massage onto lips, Use a Wet Paper towel or Flannel to remove and use a lip balm after to keep lips soft.

Let me know if any of these worked for you or you have any other recipes :)
