As a professed Lush Cosmetics addict, I am always searching for fun and easy dupes of my favorite Lush products. As beautifully scented and amazing as their products are, sometimes I just love to see if I can make the products myself.
During the Winter months a great lip scrub recipe is perfect for treating those dry, cracked lips that are in desperate need of some TLC. Lip scrubs help remove excess dead skin cells to reveal the healthy skin beneath.

DIY Lush Lip Scrub: Tips & Tricks
- If you choose to color your lip scrub, make sure to choose a light pink or "natural" shade, as it may stain your lips.
- Go to the Dollar Store for your lip balm container. They have small plastic or acrylic containers, as well as cute tiny mason jars you can use.
- Choose a different "extract" to make different flavors. Try almond, vanilla, or chocolate!
