Chapped lips got you down? If you were battling chapped lips this winter, give yourself fresh, renewed lips this spring by mustering up your own exfoliating lip scrubs at home. For reusable access when your lips are dried out and need revitalization, use containers such as lip balm pots, jars, or tins so that you can reseal the scrub for freshness. All scrubs are applied by fingertip or with a toothbrush for extra exfoliation. Rub in a circular motion on the lips for a few minutes then rinse off with warm water.
