I don’t know about you, but my skin can be so sensitive. In the spring and summer, I’m out in the sun a lot and my lips get dry. In the fall and winter, the air gets cooler and sure enough my lips get dry. It’s like no matter what time of year… my lips get dry. Can you relate?

That’s why I use this Diy Lip Scrub. It helps to naturally exfoliate, moisturize and soothe my lips. And best of all, it’s so easy to make… and made with simple ingredients you probably have in your pantry. Because this DIY Lip Scrub is made with real food ingredients, kids and teens can use this recipe too. There are no additives or preservatives.

About the Ingredients

• Brown sugar is a natural exfoliator. It will help to remove dead skin cells and promote new cell turnover.
• Raw honey helps to restore moisture and supports skin health.
• Coconut oil helps to provide moisture and acts like a lubricant to make the brown sugar exfoliate easier on the lips.
• Lavender essential oil helps to moisturize and soothe sensitive skin. Just be sure you’re using an essential oil that’s high quality as this will be going on your lips (where to buy).
