DIY Beauty | Honey Lemon Lip Polish

Dry, cracked + chapped lips? Me too, gurrrl!

For smooch-able lips, slough it all off  with this  4 ingredient, DIY lip scrub-a-dub-dub. In this recipe I used Wedderspoon’s Raw Fir Honey (from Greece!) because it’s rich in healing vitamins + nutrients. The Sugar exfoliates, the Olive Oil helps moisturize, + the Lemon Essential Oil is good for dull + lackluster skin! Plus, freshly exfoliated lips help lipstick go on smoother + last a little longer! So.. pucker up, Princess!

Ingredients + Supplies

• ½ Tsp. Organic Olive Oil
• ¼ Tsp. Wedderspoon Gold, Raw Fir Honey  *Currently 50% OFF! Get it while it lasts! 
• 1 – 1 ½  Tbsp. Organic Sugar
• 2-3 Drops Organic Lemon Essential Oil 
• Small Jar

 Instructions

1. Mix the Honey, Olive Oil + Lemon Essential Oil together.
2. Add the Sugar + combine well.
3. Store it in a clean, airtight jar.

To Use

1. Lean over your sink + pick up a small handful of scrub, rubbing it in a circular motion over your lips.
2. Repeat + rinse as necessary.
3. Follow-up with an organic balm packed with lip-healing ingredients, like this one from Wedderspoon Organic. It’s their NEW Organic Manuka, Lavender + Lemon Lip Balm, + it’s amazingly moisturizing!

 Tips + Tricks

• For a creamier consistency,  add a tiny bit of Waxelene or Egyptian Magic. You’ll have to wipe it off, instead of rinsing though.
• If you want to kick this up a notch, try adding Organic Brown Sugar instead of Organic Cane (White) Sugar, as it’s a bit more abrasive.
• After letting this sit for a few hours, you might get some hard, crunchy pieces. Just massage it with your fingers to break them up before using on your lips.
• In this recipe, I used Lemon Essential Oil, but feel free to use anything you have on hand. Peppermint is another great option!
• Grab DIY ingredients + supplies from Amazon, Mountain Rose Herbs, Starwest Botanicals, Aura Cacia, Frontier Co-op, or The Container Store.
