About the Pumpkin Pie Lip Scrub Recipe

Winter has officially hit, and dry, chapped lips are something we struggle with every year. This lip scrub is perfect for refreshing the lips and giving them a little extra plumping "oomph." If you don't need to plump (lucky you), simply leave out the Pumpkin Pie spice and scrub away! 

Brown sugar has become a popular beauty ingredient along with other items commonly found in our pantry. 

When it comes to skincare, brown sugar is a great: 
  • Exfoliant: softer than white sugar, brown sugar can be used as a gentle exfoliant to scrub away dead skin cells in sensitive areas, such as the face

  • Humectant: absorbs moisture from the surrounding environment and traps it on the skin

Honey is a wonderful:

  • Antiseptic + antibacterial: honey kills the microorganisms and bacteria that cause dryness

And Pumpkin Pie spice has a collection of beneficial ingredients:
