After being in Vail for a week I came home with lips that were dry, cracking and needing some TLC. So I decided to make a lip scrub and see if that would do the trick. I looked up some different ideas to see what I could use. There are 1000 different items you could use, but I put together 3 simple items most people have in their cupboards and created this lip scrub.
Ingredients:
Directions:
Combine all 3 ingridents, make sure you have enough sugar and add in a little vanilla extract! Then let it sit for 20 minutes, having it sit for awhile allows it to become more of a paste. Then simply apply on your lips using your finger or a small toothbrush. Let sit for a few minutes then gently rub the scrub on the lips and allow all the dead skin to come off. Rise off and put on your favorite chap stick and viola! Smoothe lips!!
- Sugar In The Raw
- Agave Nectar (or you could also use honey)
- Coconut Oil
- *a few drops of vanilla extract

Needless to say my lips were very happy and I will be using this scrub often! As women we take care of our faces, but sometimes forget to take care of our lips. This scrub surely does the trick.
