Sugar Lip Scrub

Having dry lips isn't fun. What causes dry lips?
  • You could be using a lip balm/lipstick with drying agents... what to look for. An ingredient used in the product to give scent/flavor called.. Cinnamates. 
  • Biting or licking your lips. 
  • Not drinking enough water. Which causes your skin/lips to stay hydrated. 
  • Your tooth paste. Believe or not if you get chronic dry lips this may be the culprit! 
  • Sun/Wind damage.

Be sure to apply a good lip moisturizer. After searching the web here are some of the best I came across.

Burt's Bees Original Lip Balm

The  Body Shop Shea Lip Care 

Kiss My Face Organic Lip

Carmex Mint  Lip Balm








This is my Home remedy for Dry Lips-
Sugar Lip Scrub. 
1/4 Teaspoon Vaseline. 
1/4 Teaspoon Sugar. 
(You could also add Honey and Olive Oil in it too!)

Rub the mixture onto your lips and let it sit for a couple of minutes then rinse off with warm water! :]
