Hey guys! So, today I have a beauty tip for you all and a DIY lip scrub! So I'm sure you all have had this problem when your lipstick looks flaky and blotchy because your lips are chapped and you've tried chapstick and lip butters and not even that fixes the problem! Well you need to take care of your lips, kind of like you would your face. So the steps for your face: wash it and exfoliate and sometimes even a little extra pampering like facials and massages. To have healthy lips you need to exfoliate them as well! Exfoliating removes dead skin and is a bit more of a deep clean then just washing (I'm not really sure why or how you would wash your lips but that's beside the point). Anyway using a lip scrub that you buy or you make is the best way to exfoliate your lips. So enough of the intro, here are steps to make your own DIY lip scrub and how to get the healthiest? i dunno what you wanna call your lips.. healthy gorgeus beautiful... whatever floats your boat. OK here we go:
What you need: sugar, olive oil, lip balm, and a small bowl to mix it in (optional a small jar like a baby food jar).
Take about 1/4 teaspoon of lip balm, a few drops of olive oil and a packet of sugar, or about a teaspoon of sugar and mix it all together. Now you can either use it straight out of the bowl or put it in the small jar for use later, I prefer the jar so you can use it again and not have to make more. If you use the jar you may need to mix more than what is said. Anyway, once you've mixed it together, take the scrub on your lips and rub your lips for about 60 seconds then wash and immediately apply lip balm. I like using a lip butter just because they are so creamy and moisturizing to the lips. Try the korres lip butter, I've heard great reviews on them! Do this about twice a week and you should notice a big difference in your lips!
Will you guys be trying this DIY lip scrub?

I love doing homemade lip scrubs! I like adding just a teeny tiny amount of vanilla extract to it, too. Adds a nice little flavor!
