Lush Santa's Lip Scrub

I'm a huge lush fan and have been for a while now. There is nothing I love more than a good bath with a bubble bar and bath bomb. I also love the face masks. They are some of my favourites. When Lush has a blogger event a few weeks ago I couldn't wait to go down and have the chance to just wonder round the store.

On the way out we were given some goodies and the Santa's lip scrub was one of them. I'm never one to try the limited edition products. I tend to stick to what I know, but was excited to try this as my current lip scrub is a now discontinued one. As an everyday lipstick wearer I find I always use a lip scrub morning and night. They are especially good for these winter nights.

I love that the lush lip scrubs are natural products so can just be licked off. The santa's lip scrub is a bright red. I was slightly worried it would stain my lips but it didn't. I love that is has little edible hearts at the top. The cola flavour is really tasty and not too fake. Personally for me the bubblegum one is too much.

Santa's lip scrub is a wetter lip scrub than the others I've tried. On my hand you can see sweet lips is drier and more sugary. It does have cherries and dates in which make it wetter than the normal ones but it still works as good.

I'm definitely a lip scrub lover! If you fancy a cola lip scrub you should snap it up quick as it's limited edition. 

Have you tried lip scrubs or do you think it's an unnecessary step?

Review: Lush Sweet Lips Lip Scrub

As I'm starting my Lipstick Monday's series and a request I've decided to review my must have lip product for you lipstick loving ladies like me!!

Let me introduce you to Sweet Lips Lip Scrub.

This is one of my lush staples, lucky for me when my OH got my Lush Christmas presents at the till he impulsively picked this up in my favourite flavour.

From the pot you can see it's a thick sugar based lip scrub, this product lasts a while as you only need a very small amount. 

The ingredients to this are pretty simple and contain no nasties! Mainly sugar oils and vanilla flavouring, mean if your like me once you've finished rubbing it in you can just lick your lips and it tastes yum. (any of you lush scrub uses please tell me I'm not the only one)

It's a simple to use product. I personally pop it on my lips before I apply foundation, rub them together and it leaves you with nice smooth lips, perfect for lipstick application.

Another great way to apply would be at night then apply a coat of lip balm to wake up with lovely smooth lips. I think having smooth lips really makes a difference to how your lipstick applies and chapped lips are never a good look.

At £4.95 it may seem like a product you don't need, but it's worth picking up. They do two other flavours, I think I'll be picking up bubblegum next time. L has this one.

Do you use a lip scrub? Is this something you'd purchase.

Love M
