Honey Lip Scrub

I haven't posted in a while... my apologies :( But today I have a special for you all :) Let's be real, no one wants a dry, cracked lip... and for the ladies I know wearing matte lipsticks can do some damage to our lips! I hope this recipe helps you! Dry, cracked lips can be caused by a number of factors, including hot or cold weather, open-mouthed breathing because of illness or habit, dehydration and even allergic reactions to certain kinds of cosmetics. Although dried lips are common, they're also easy to treat--and using honey is a traditional method for healing cracked lips. Skin that is regularly exfoliated is healthier skin, both in appearance and function. Cleansed of dead skin, it can circulate more efficiently, breathing in good nourishment and expelling toxins. It also glows, is more uniform in appearance with tighter pores, and is soft to the touch. A DIY Honey Lip Scrub .. to exfoliate those lush lips!  History of Honey Poultices...
