DIY Lip Scrub

I don't know about you guys, but there are some days where I could literally DIY the crap out of everything. For example, yesterday I was feeling uber crafty and I was feeling inspired to make a lip scrub. When it comes to DIY crafts, I'm not very good at coming up with unique ideas, so I normally have to find a tutorial on a certain project, and then I just work with what I have and tailor make it for myself. For example, I stumbled upon this really great DIY lip scrub recipe that I just knew I had to try, but I was too lazy to do it. Until yesterday.

Fun fact: I have never actually used a lip scrub before. I know. How can I, operator of a beauty blog, have never tried a lip scrub before? I don't even know. One time I went into Lush and came thisclose to buying a premade lip scrub. Fortunately (or unfortunately- depending on your viewpoint), I didn't want to spend $8 on something I could probably make at home for a fraction of the cost. But I never got around to making it, until yesterday.

This is literally the easiest thing ever, and I'm actually quite ashamed of never having made this before. You only need three ingredients- coconut oil, honey, and brown sugar. That's it! Just mix it all together and BAM! You have an awesome, moisturizing lip scrub. After I massage this into my lips for about a minute (and by the way- this scrub tastes SO good), I wash it off and apply my Jack Black lip balm. My lips have never felt better! For the full recipe with more precise instructions, check it out here. And don't forget to refrigerate it when you're done mixing it up! Your lips will thank you.
