DIY Lemon Lip Scrub

Do you ever feel like you just wanna put lip scrub, but you don't have any of it? That is exactly what I felt this morning. I woke up with a very dry lip, and I was searching my lip scrub but I guess I left it in Bali. So here I present is DIY Lemon Lip Scrub (in 3mins) if you ever feel what I felt! 

Ingredients :
  • 1 tsp of Brown Sugar
  • 1.5 tsp of White Sugar
  • 1 tsp of Honey
  • 1/2 tsp of Coconut Oil
  • Dash of lemon juice

Mix all of the ingredients together in a small bowl to make a sugary paste. You can add more or less of some ingredients to get the consistency how you like.

To Use :
Use your finger to dippy-dip into the scrub and amount of scrub to your lips and massage it around for about 20 seconds or so. Use soft circular motions across your lips. Rinse with warm water (not warm is okay) and apply your favorite lip balm afterwards for soft n’ silky lips. 


Beauty experts recommend scrubbing your lips at least once a week, and more during winter. It only takes a few minutes to scrub your lips, so doing it once, even twice a week, is very realistic. 

NOTE :  Any leftovers should be stored in the fridge.
WHY?
Coconut Oil = vit E & K, polyphenols are anti aging, & fatty acids that moisturize w/o breakouts
Honey = A natural source rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Absorbs and retains moisture, natural antibacterial, amino acids that moisturise. 
Brown Sugar: Has anti-bacterial properties and vitamin B.
White Sugar: Naturally draws moisture into the skin, is a natural AHA that encourages cell turnover (for younger looking skin!), natural source of glycolic acid which can help sun-damaged skin.
Lemon Juice = vit C & citric acid brighten skin, scars, and exfoliates.
Since this is homemade, beside doesn't contain any harsh chemicals, it also tastes so good!
