When it comes to exfoliation, you must not forget about your lips; like the rest of our face, you need to apply moisturizer and exfoliate at least once a week; otherwise, you will notice how your lips can be chapped and dehydrated when are exposed to the air, the sun, and the wind.
A home-made lip scrub is effortless to make, and you will just need a few ingredients you can find anywhere.
Ingredients:
- Caster sugar (250 gr)
- Refined shea butter (50 gr)
- Rice oil (75 ml)
- Vitamin E (1 g)
- Balm essence
It is essential for this recipe to use caster sugar and no other sugar because its consistency is the most indicated to make a lip scrub. The granule size of caster sugar does not irritate the lips, and absolutely nothing happens if it gets into the mouth.
Its particles help the skin regenerate, leaving it juicier and healthier and preventing dead skin appearance.
