Greetings!
As many of my friends know I am a huge Tumblr fan, there is a wealth of do-it-yourself projects that can be found if you follow the right blogs that fit your lifestyle. I am always checking these blogs out and taking note on what beauty treatments I can do at home that I normally would have to spend the big bucks for in a department store.
Now let's play catch up first. Rewind to six months ago when I was ranting and raving about Lush and their lip scrubs, the product is great, however, like any other beauty fiend I grew tired and wanted to try something different. After trying other company's lip scrubs and going through trial and error and finally realizing what I liked and didn't like in a lip scrub I came to the realization that what I wanted was too expensive! LOL I fell in love with fresh lip scrub from Sephora (it's currently not on the website but I would hope that it's still in stores for those of you who would like to try it) but since it was about $25 a small jar and since I am on a budget I had to refrain from purchasing.
*Insert my Tumblr addiction here*
I came across this DIY "How To" on how to make your own lip scrub, normally I would attach the picture I used as reference but I can't find the specific one that I used in making mine. Kicks rocks...
Anyway, I took charge and look at what I came up with....
I used honey, brown sugar, and olive oil, no approximate measuring, I just used my trusty eyes. lol Of course you then have to mix it up and voila you have an edible and natural lip scrub! I purchased this little jar from Wal Mart in a two pack casing for $1! Talk about money saved! The best thing about this is that it rivals the fresh scrub that I was using. This has to be the best lip scrub that I've come across and it was made by me! ;) There's something about making your own stuff!
Have you tried any DIY lately? Tell me in the comments!
