Bubblegum Lip Scrub Recipe

Bubblegum Lip ScrubI love Lush’s bubblegum lip scrub, but the price is outrageous and I find the taste…slightly odd. Probably the castor oil. Here’s an alternative that is gift-able, simple to make, much cheaper, and so delicious!

Don’t forgot your lips  — Keep them pouting smooth with this Bubble Gum Lip Scrub Recipe.  All natural and vegan, and a totally edible finished product.  This scrub can be used daily just before you add your lip stick or gloss.

bubblegum flavorWith a small pipette or dropper, add a drop or two of the flavoring to two tablespoons of sugar. Add gradually and taste as you go! If you over do it, mix in a bit more sugar.

adding flavor

Now, we need this to be a bright pink, so add one drop of red food coloring.

adding color

Mix well. To get a silky smooth finish to your scrub, you’ll want to add some oil. You can use castor, or jojoba, or olive oil. But I thought vitamin E oil would work perfectly and not have a weird taste. I used about a teaspoon.

Lick your lips, dip your finger into your scrub to scoop a little out, and rub. When you’re done you can rinse…but why do that when you can lick your lips?!?!
