Kissable Lips

Spring is quickly approaching which means us girls can start to break out our pretty pastel pink lipsticks and lip-glosses. Who is as excited as I am? One thing to make sure of is that your
pout is smoother then a baby's bottom. The only worse part about wearing lipstick is wearing it with dry, cracked lips.
 
I found this recipe for a really easy and also tasty lip scrub. Give this a try to relieve your lips of their dryness and go from Sahara Dessert looking lips to smooth and kissable in only minutes. The fun part about this scrub is you can use it as a facial scrub as well. Don't hesitate to taste a little too while your exfoliating.  
 
What you will need....
 
1 tsp of coconut oil, 1 tsp of raw honey, 2 TB of raw/granulated sugar mixed, and a DASH of lemon juice.
 

Mix all of the ingredients together to form a paste. Use a toothbrush of your fingertip to softly massage the scrub onto your lips. Rinse with water and then apply lip balm or even a very small amount of the coconut oil to your lips.
 




 
 Even my sweetness got in on the action. I can't be the only one with kissable lips!
 



Reason behind these ingredients is

Coconut Oil = vit E & K, polyphenols are anti aging, & fatty acids that moisturize w/o breakouts

Raw Honey = natural antibacterial, amino acids that moisturize. Raw is better bc it hasn’t lost it’s healing properties.

Raw Sugar = produces glycolic acid/alpha hydroxy which exfoliates & stimulates collagen production – anti aging

Lemon Juice = vit C & citric acid brighten skin, scars, and exfoliates.



 
Now pucker up and wear those pink shades proudly!!
