A Lip Scrub Made with Petroleum Jelly & Raw, Unrefined Sugar

Looking for soft, kissable lips? This easy DIY lip scrub uses petroleum jelly and raw sugar for a gentle exfoliation that leaves your lips feeling smooth and hydrated.

Ingredients To Make The Perfect Sugar Lip Scrub

• Petroleum jelly
• Raw, unrefined sugar
• Bowl
• Your finger
• Water
• Washcloth

Instructions To Create A Sugar Lip Scrub

1. Prep Your Pout for Perfection: Begin by pampering your lips with a thin layer of petroleum jelly applied with your finger. This creates a protective barrier, ensuring the scrub buffs away dry skin without causing irritation.
2. Craft Your Exfoliating Lip Magic: In a small bowl, pour a half tablespoon of raw sugar. Gently dip your fingertip into the sugar, coating it with a light layer - think shimmering fairy dust for your lips!
3. Buff Away The Flakes: Time to work your magic! Gently massage the sugar-coated fingertip in circular motions across your lips, reaching both the top and bottom. Focus on areas with stubborn dryness, but remember to be kind - a gentle touch works wonders. Buff for 15-30 seconds, feeling the dead skin cells melt away like snowflakes on a warm day.
4. Rinse And Reveal: Once you've achieved the perfect level of smoothness, rinse your lips thoroughly with warm water to remove the sugar scrub. Pat your lips dry with a clean washcloth, revealing the soft, supple skin beneath.
5. Seal the Deal with Moisture: Now comes the fun part! Apply your favorite lip balm to lock in all that newfound hydration. Your lips will feel refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to take on the world (or that special someone) with confidence.

Additional LIPtastic Tips:

• Remember, you're the artist, and your lips are the canvas! Adjust the amount of sugar depending on your desired level of exfoliation. For more sensitive lips, use less sugar or a finer grain.
• Want to add a delightful twist? Include a drop of honey or vanilla extract to the sugar before mixing for a touch of sweetness and a delightful scent.
• Any leftover scrub can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week, ready for your next lip-pampering session.
• Be gentle with your lips, especially if they're chapped or cracked. In these cases, it's best to skip the scrub and focus on deep hydration with lip balm.

Enjoy your soft, kissable lips, and remember, a little DIY magic goes a long way!
