Lip sugar scrub help?
Peace Love
last week i use a sugar scrub on my lips. it's been rubbed raw since. ive used vaseline and various chapsticks and nothing is working! please help. thanks!
made mine out of honey and white granulated sugar
Answer
Wow, I use a sugar scrub on my lips everyday! Except I make mine using brown sugar, honey, olive and almond oil...was this scrub you used natural or not, it seems like it had chemicals in it?
My first thought would be Vaseline, even though it's not the most natural. I would try coconut oil as it's more moisturizing than olive oil. Also Eurcerin's cream is SUPER thick and I apply that on my face, and some gets on my lips and keeps them moisturized. Eucerin, also makes a cream called Aquaphor. If you can't find any of these on your drugstore shelves, just go up to the pharmacy and ask, usually they have them stocked there. If you don't want to buy a big tub, usually they can give you free samples...good luck!
