Lip scrubs physically remove dead skin cells from your lips leaving them soft, smooth and supple. Properly exfoliated lips better absorb moisturizing agents and protectants such as lip balm.
Just as body scrubs are an important part of any skincare routine, exfoliating lip scrubs are crucial in maintaining a healthy, smooth pout.
A Lip Scrub is essential for keeping your lips full, healthy, and hydrated. Your lips, just like your face, have a lipid layer: a protective layer that retains a balance of moisture. When your lips get dry and chapped, that lipid layer becomes unbalanced, perpetuating the problem. Skin flakes and peels tempting you to pick and peel, making it look as though you’ve been chewing on your lips all day.
It is a key element to removing chapped, dead skin and helping your lip balm penetrate and rebalance that lipid layer. Even if you do not typically wear makeup, who doesn’t want soft, healthy, totally smoochable lips ?
Why sugar: Sugar tends to be smaller in size than other exfoliants, making it ideal for sensitive or delicate skin. And, because it is much gentler on skin, it's perfect for removing layers of flaky skin without running the risk of irritation or abrasion. Plus, the natural chemical exfoliant in sugar enhances its efficacy while still retaining moisture.
How often: This really depends on the severity of your chapped lips. For the most part, using a lip scrub thrice a week is perfect for maintaining a smooth, flake-free smile. But, you can absolutely use every day for a short 30-second gentle massage if your mission to a beautiful smile is a top priority.
How To Use:
Apply generously on the lips and massage gently in circular motion for at least 15 seconds.
And because our Lip Scrubs are edible or safe to be ingested, you can either WIPE IT off your lips or simply LICK IT clean when you are done.
