To use: Dip your finger into the scrub and gently rub it over your lips for 5–10 seconds before removing with lukewarm water or a gentle damp cloth. Alternatively, leave the scrub on your lips as the coconut oil will give a little glow! The coconut sugar is small enough that you shouldn’t notice it on your lips; however, if you use a larger sugar crystal you may want to gently wipe it off. Store in the fridge for a solid lip scrub; otherwise, you can store your DIY sugar lip scrub at room temperature but in a cool dark place as heat may cause the coconut sugar to dissolve into the coconut oil.
Chef's Notes
