Lemon Mint Lip Scrub

11/25/2018

It's that time of year where lips get dry and cracked regardless of how much water you consume. Lip balms are great, but sometimes you need a little something extra to help remove the flakes of dead skin that come from the dryness. 

Using simple ingredients you can quickly create your own lip scrub. Sure, you can buy this stuff, but I like making my own so I know exactly what it is made of. I used organic sugar, because it makes a perfect natural exfoliant. I chose to use jojoba oil, because it is deeply nourishing for the skin. The combination of lemon and peppermint not only tastes good, but lemon essential oil is a powerful oil for exfoliating the skin, while peppermint gently soothes and adds freshness. 

Lemon Mint Lip Scrub


  • 1.5 Tablespoons of organic sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons jojoba oil
  • 2 drops of lemon essential oil
  • 1 drop of peppermint essential oil

Gently mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Once combined, transfer mixture to a small container with lid. Old lip balm containers are a great option, and a perfect way to re-purpose and reduce waste. :-)

To use the scrub, gently wet your lips with warm water. Use a small amount of scrub and rub over lips in a circular motion. Rinse lips with warm water and pat dry. Add your favorite lip balm if needed.
