Tips & Tricks

  1. You must store the DIY lip scrubs in a refrigerator as they do not contain any preservatives.
  2. You can substitute the oils in your DIY lip scrubs according to your preference. Almond oil, olive oil and coconut oil all work equally well in all the recipes with the exact same results.
  3. Just like the oils, you can substitute the sugar as well. If you do not have brown sugar, add white sugar and you are good to go. Also castor sugar (grinded sugar) works great.
  4. If you are unable to find a small plastic container- lens boxes, tablet boxes, old eye cream containers work great, just make sure you sanitize them first.
  5. Take care of your allergies and skip any ingredient except oil/honey and sugar/oats.
  6. You can use a toothbrush to massage these scrubs on your lips. However, be very gentle with it.
