Cinnamon Lip Scrub Recipe With Brown Sugar & Vitamin E
TOOLS/EQUIPMENT
- digital scale
- small bowl for mixing
- spoon or small spatula for mixing
- airtight containers to store your finished lip scrub in
INGREDIENTS
Note: ingredients are measured in grams
- 13 g coconut oil – an amazing source of moisture
- 0.25 g vitamin E – to promote cell turnover & regeneration
- 36 g dark brown sugar – provides the gritty texture that serves as the exfoliant in this formula
- 3 g cinnamon powder – to take the flavor up about 10 notches
While you could substitute another oil for coconut, there is probably nothing out there that’s going to taste as good. But as long as its roughly the consistency of coconut oil (slippery and thin vs castor oil which is super thick and gloppy), any oil you choose will provide the necessary moisture and slip.
BROWN SUGAR & CINNAMON LIP SCRUB RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
- Measure your ingredients out and mix them together in your bowl
- Transfer the finished scrub into an airtight container for storage
How To Store
Your scrub will be easiest to use if you store it at room temperature. Just remember to always seal your airtight container, as pests will be attracted to the oil and sugar.
How To Use
Using clean fingers or a small spoon, scoop out a small amount (about 1/2 a pea-sized dollop) of scrub. Standing over a sink, rub onto clean lips, using circular motions, for 30-60 seconds.
Remove using either of the 2 methods below:
- Rinse sugar granules off with water and lightly pat lips dry
- Wipe sugar off with a cloth or paper towel
Whichever removal method you chose, know that some oil will remain on your lips and this will help to seal in moisture.
