Sugar Scrub

Sugar scrubs are the perfect exfoliators for the summer. You might think that winter’s the only season that can damage your lips but the harsh UVA and B rays can do equal damage by tanning. That’s why you need to invest in a robust lip cleansing routine (just as you do for your skin). All you need is to add two tablespoons of brown sugar and honey to virgin olive oil. Mix these ingredients well and ensure no lumps are left, grind it to a paste and voila! Your yummy lip scrub is ready for use!

While it has many uses today, the primary reason why we all swear by petroleum jelly is because of the wonders it does to the lips. The perfect ingredient to a pretty pout, petroleum jelly will work wonders on your skin. Use it post your lip scrub and preferably overnight for max effect. We’re amazed at how something as simple as this can be such a saviour. Aren’t you?
