With a few easy steps, you can DIY this simple homemade lip sugar scrub. It’ll be the perfect addition to your daily beauty routine!

Hello, everyone! Lisa reporting for DIY duty and today, I am so eager to show you my latest beauty recipe. For those of you who have read my blog, Fabulous Habits, you’d know that I love diving into new beauty products. Whether it is something homemade or store-bought, I believe that incorporating healthy products is beneficial to any self-care routine. Today, I will be sharing how I make my own homemade lip sugar scrub.

I am notorious for having dry, flaky lips – and I believe it is a mix of different factors/reasons. For instance, living in a cold, dry area definitely doesn’t help. Moreover, I am not the greatest at hydrating myself at a consistent rate – this is something I know I have to change.

I’m continuously making efforts to better my self-care routine. Drinking water more often is one of my first steps. In the meantime, my homemade lip sugar scrub helps with the process of getting my lips to a healthier state.
