Product Review: LUSH Lip Scrubs.... Edible, natural and worth the purchase!


My lips tend to be more dry, chapped and flakier during the winter.  I love to have a product that I can carry every day and easy to use.  I have found many products through the years that work great on the dry part but not the flaking and chapped parts.  I walked into Lush one day and found the perfect product.


Lush has some of the best lip scrubs that work great for any age.  I love that it is edible.  Many scrubs I have tried have to be rinsed, or taken off.  If you get a little of the Lush lip scrub in your mouth it will not hurt you.  Lush products are also handmade with fresh ingredients.


I originally loved Sweet Lips lip scrub.  It was discontinued and I had to purchase a new one. I wish they would bring it back.  It had the perfect chocolate taste and my lips felt smooth after using it.    I picked up the Popcorn lip scrub recently and love the sweet and salty flavor.  It also does not have any dyes and is vegan.

For the holidays Lush came out with Santa's Lip Scrub.  It has a cola flavor and has miniature hearts in it.   The flavor is not bad and thank goodness the hearts are only at the top of the jar.  The hearts really don't assist with exfoliating the lips.  They seem more like a cute decoration.  The texture is a bit softer and the I need more of the Santa's scrub for my winter chapped lips compared to Lush regular line of lip scrubs.  Also there are dyes in the Santa's scrub which does cause a small amount of red staining.


Overall I prefer the Sweet Lips and Popcorn Lip Scrubs compared to Santa's Lip Scrub.  The texture is more grainy and definitely smooths my lips better.  I will definitely go back for the Popcorn Lip Scrub once I am out of this one!
