Home-made Lip scrub

So I have found my lips get really dry and chapped, and soon with the cold weather coming in there is nothing worse than the cold making your lips horrible! So I found this really cool recipe for a lip scrub

Ingredients:
White Granulated sugar
Almond oil
Almond extract
Food Colouring
Small Pot

So firstly you should combine 3 tbsp of the sugar with 1 1/2 tbsp of almond oil (obviously if you are allergic or don't like almond oil you can use a different type of oil such as coconut oil or even olive oil) in a bowl. The oils are what hydrate your lips. You can also use brown sugar but white sugar is easier to colour.

Secondly for flavour as three drops of the almond extract (again you can use a different type of flavouring depending on what you like)

If it is too runny then you can add more sugar for a drier consistency

Then add a drop or two of food colouring to the mix, I suggest red or orange as they are nice warm colours :) and look nice.

Then pop it into the small pot and use whenever your lips need exfoliating! Enjoy
