This Spicy Gingerbread Lip Scrub is exactly what you need to give your lips a bit of a treat!
At this time of year, my lips always seem to get super dry and often a little bit chapped but this Spicy Gingerbread Lip Scrub is perfect to soothe them and to stop them drying out! It’s also easy to make and used things that I bet you have in your kitchen cupboards so you won’t even have to go out and buy anything!
What you need to make your own homemade spicy gingerbread lip scrub
- 100g brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil (in its liquid form)
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
Both Ginger and Cinnamon can cause a little bit of tingling so I’ve only recommended using ¼ of a teaspoon of each bit if I’m honest, I know I personally make this with ½ teaspoon of each as I don’t mind the tingly feeling.
How to make your homemade spicy gingerbread lip scrub
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl until they’re combined
- Save in a container with a tight-fitting lid.
- You can store your gingerbread lip scrub in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Just give it a quick stir each time you use it as the oils may separate slightly when it’s stood.
How to use your spicy gingerbread lip scrub
- Wet your lips with warm water.
- Scoop out a penny-sized amount of your scrub.
- Gently rub the scrub onto your lips for 10-15 seconds.
- Remove with a warm washcloth and rinse gently – I like to leave a little of the oil on my lips to soak in a bit.
