Love Yourself
Love Yourself : Body
Pt. [Lip Love]

It is a big myth that our lips need care only in the months of winter. Yes,they do need quite a bit more in the chilly days but how can we leave them in unnourished in this scorching heat?

A great way to show love to our lips is giving it the 3 step full cleansing and nourishment!

But why not love our body while loving our pockets? And have some fun too? Below are listed some DIYs to complete the 3 step lip care!

The three step tantalising lip spa:
1. Exfoliate
2. Mask
3. Moisturizer

1. EXFOLIATE :

Material Needed :
honey, brown/white sugar and a container to store your yummy lip love!

Preparation :
Simply add crushed sugar to honey in equal amounts and mix and store. Honey goes a long way and doesn't go bad!

Use :
Using finger or a Q-tip apply the scrub on your lip. Massage for few minutes and let it sit, so that the honey can work wonders in softening your tender lips and done! Great thing about is that you can use is often without worrying as it is not abrasive like store bought exfoliators.

2. MASK:

Material Needed : honey and lemon

Preparation :
add one table spoon of honey to few drops of lemon, mix well.

Use :
apply with a finger or Q-tip as desired and let it sit for about 15 minutes. This mask will soothe and also help in lightening dark lips.

3. MOISTURIZE:

Material Needed :
petroleum jelly / Vaseline, olive oil, coconut oil and any old lipstick/eye shadow / blush for colour.

Preparation :
Heat up petroleum in microwave for 30 sec (change according to you microwave setting). Safer way is to heat it on a double boiler as petroleum burns fast. Once heated add the colored pigment you chose and the few drops of olive oil and coconut oil, mix well and d-d-done!

Use :
Lock in all the moisture after the above two steps with this amazing lip balm:) Petroleum jelly does not moisturise lips but hold in moisture. Therefore the olive oil and coconut does the moisturising work while the jelly hold it in and gives thickness to the balm.

Hope you have a fun summer!at least your lips would;)
