Coconut Lime Lip Scrub

Packed with enriching ingredients and the invigorating aroma of Lime essential oil, this lip scrub is exactly what dry, heat-worn lips need! This DIY recipe is easy to make, convenient to store, and soothing to use. We chose coconut oil because it is a naturally sourced moisturizer, and included the soft exfoliating power of granulated sugar to gently soothe the lips. Lime essential oil is the perfect addition to give this scrub a tropical twist with its refreshingly citrusy aroma, plus it has added surface cleansing properties that enhance the power of this delectable lip scrub. Pampering yourself has never been so easy or effective!
