Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub

Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub £5.25

My lips take a right beating no matter what time of year - mainly cause I bite them, but winter is especially bad and I get scabs and dead skin and they are just a bit eugh. So this year I was resolved that it would be different. So I picked up this lip scrub from Lush. I'm always intrigued by Lush and I love the concept behind the brand and their products - I haven't come across one yet that I don't love.

This product is made up of castor sugar which acts as a gentle scrub and jojoba oil to moisturize your lips without leaving them oily or greasy. I dab my finger in and then rub across my lips, then lick off. It leaves them feeling smooth instantly, I then pop on my current lip balm of choice (Nivea Lip Butter in Raspberry Rose) which helps to protect my lips. Having used it for only a couple of weeks I am already seeing a distinct  improvement into the quality of my lips and the ease at which lipsticks go on now.

My only reservation with this is that I'm not a huge bubblegum fan, or of any of the other flavours they do - this was chosen purely out of colour. But I've found that this doesn't taste very bubblegummy at all - to me anyway, it's actually rather tasty.

I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who asked and it's not a bad price either. It seems to be lasting forever too which is good! Definitely grab one of these little posts for the winter - it's a lip saver!

How do you keep your lips soft in winter?
