Current Favourites - Lip Products

If there's one thing I hate about the cold weather, it's how dry it can make my skin. Throughout the year I spend a lot of time trying to make sure my skin is cleansed & moisturised, but realised I've been neglecting the one area that gets effected by the cold the most, my lips. I decided to invest in a few products to help keep them soft & healthy - no matter how cold the weather gets.




Lush Popcorn Lip Scrub - £5.50 for 25g
Whilst I love Lush's Bath Bomb and Bubble Bars, this the Popcorn Lip Scrub has to be one of my favourite Lush products - a big claim, I know. To use, simply place a small amount onto a clean finger & gently buff away at lips to remove any dry or chapped skin. With Caster Sugar & Sea Salt for exfoliation and essential oils to moisturise (including both Coconut & Jojoba) Lush's scrub leaves skin feeling silky-smooth without any excess residue. (It also tastes amazing, but I'm pretty sure you're not really supposed to taste too much).

Carmex Lip Balm - £2.69
This is a product I picked up whilst suffering with a horrible cold that left my lips ridiculously chapped (thanks winter!). Made with ingredients including; Menthal, Beeswax and Camphor this balm quickly soothes irritated lips. Bonus, it also has SPF 15, making it the perfect year-round lip product.

I try and use Lush's Lip Scrub followed by the Carmex lip balm each night after cleansing to leave my lips feeling soft & moisturised each morning. Alternatively I'll also use both to prep my lips & remove any dead skin before applying Lipstick.

Have you tried either of the above products?
I'd love to know your thoughts in the comments.
