There are certain things I think you shouldn’t need to
spend lots of money on when it comes to beauty. As the colder months are
approaching I think it’s important to take care of your lips from getting dry
and chapped. My go to product is definitely Carmex, but it is also important to
scrub your lips and remove dead skin cells as well. So I have made my own lip
scrub and will show you how you can too with simple ingredients that most of
you will already have!
What
you will need:
Sugar (you can use brown or white)
Honey
Lime or lemon juice
You can also add food colouring or flavouring
A container to store it in
Method:
1.
Mix the sugar with a teaspoon of honey (this
does depend on how much you want to make) and make sure it is a thick
consistency.
2.
Then add a squeeze of lime juice and stir.
3.
You can then add the mixture into an airtight
container to use again.
4.
Then to apply gently rub into your lips (but
not too hard) and wipe away with warm water.
This will leave you with super soft lips and is great
because it costs next to nothing!
I will say I did make mine a bit too runny and this can be
messy to apply so just make sure you only add a small amount of honey and add a
bit at a time.

Have
you made your own lip scrub before? Will you try this? Are there any other
products you make yourself?
