Can anyone recommend a lip scrub?

Hello,

Has anyone used a lip scrub or lip polish and can advise? Looking for something without harsh ingredients or perfume/colour.

Ideally something I can order online.

Thanks!

Mix a bit of sugar (caster) with vaseline. Rub in for a few mins and rinse. Miles better than any I've bought.

Ah, I did wonder about making my own!

Is caster sugar the one you put in tea and coffee?

Thanks

I just brush mine gently with my toothbrush and put lip balm on immediately afterwards.

I like brown sugar better - caster is the baking one, granulated is the cups of tea one.

I like to whip solid coconut oil with an electric whisk, then add in loads of soft brown sugar and some muscovado sugar. Smells amazing and is so good on your skin! Honestly my skin never feels better. If you whip it, it's not so solid to try and get it out. You can definitely use it to scrub lips although I normally just use a flannel.
