August may just be ending, but many of us are begining to experience the first hint of fall weather. With that thought in mind, I thought I’d share with you a great little recipe for a lip scrub that will slough off those dry, dead, skin cells and leave you pucker-up ready, instead of just puckered.

Materials:

  • 1 tsp. Honey
  • Butter extract
  • Rum extract
  • 1 tsp. Olive oil
  • ¼ c. Granulated sugar

Instructions:

In a small bowl, add 1 tsp. of honey to a ¼ cup of granulated sugar.

Mix the honey and granulated sugar until they are well combined.

Add the 1 tsp. of olive oil to the sugar and honey mixture and stir again.

Mix all ingredients together in the bowl to form a loose paste. If your mixture is too crumbly, you can add a bit more honey. If it is too loose, add a little more sugar.

Add a few drops of rum extract. Be sure to only use a few drops of this extract, as it is very strong.

Add some butter extract to your lip scrub mixture.

Apply a bit of the scrub to your lips and massage lightly. Rinse, and store the scrub in an airtight container.
