beauty review: lush cosmetics lip scrub

i walked into lush cosmetics after being hassled by an online friend to buy the stuff. i only bought one small product - the lush cosmetics lip scrub in bubblegum flavour. they had other scents but this was by far the sweetest smelling one and actually smells like bubble gum.


lush make handmade, natural products and this one is made of only four ingredients - caster sugar, organic jojoba oil and a flavour and colour additive - so i guess you could really make your own at home with just some sugar and oil.


i keep mine on my shower shelf and just stick my finger in and scrub a little bit all over my lips every couple of days. it keeps them soft and supple - which is much needed at the moment because its winter and my lips get chapped and rough from the weather and from having colds, the flu, etc.


pros:
it smells so tasty, is fun to use and works! its also natural, handmade and is not tested on animals (a big plus for me!) and is actually vegan as well. its also pretty reasonably priced - about $10. the jar is small (25g) but a little goes a long way and this should last for a long time.

cons:
make sure your finger and your lip is reasonably dry when you use it. water will only make the sugar dissolve very quickly, thus rendering the product pretty useless. use a dry fingertip and moist (not wet!) lip and it should work fine.

you can buy lush products all over the world. check out their website here to see if they sell it in your country.

have you bought anything from lush? did you like their stuff?
