HOMEMADE REMEDY FOR DRY, CHAPPED LIPS

I believe everyone loves to have soft, smooth and kissable lips. And for ladies your lipstick or lip gloss looks very tacky when your lips are cracked and dry.

To have smooth and soft lips you need to exfoliate them like you do your skin. It takes only 5 minutes twice a week to pamper your lips using products you can easily find in your kitchen.

My favorite lip exfoliation trick is:1 teaspoon olive oil mixed with 1 teaspoon honey mixed with 1 teaspoon brown sugar. Put this mixture on an old toothbrush and gently...and i mean GENTLY scrub your lips in circular motion.





Why It Works

Olive Oil: Natural source of Vitamin E which is good for your skin
Honey: Humectant that draws moisture to your lips leaving it plump and soft.
Brown Sugar: A natural Exfoliant; remove dry skin from your lips.

After rinsing it off, moisturize your lips with a good balm like Vaseline Lip Therapy Advanced Formula or Burt's Bees Pomegranate Lip Balm

I have read and seen a few lip exfoliating products online and in stores and I've tried one or two but nothing gives me a better and cheaper result like my olive oil, brown sugar and honey mix.

Go try it and let me know what you think.
