Valentines day is coming! That means lots of kisses from that special person in your life, or if you’re single, a day for you to treat yo self! (If you don’t get the reference, you NEED to watch Parks and Recreation. It’s a hilarious comedy with Amy Pohler. Watch the treat yo self clip here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsABTmT1_M0) In preparation for Valentines day, try out a lip scrub. They are a super easy way to get all the dead, dry skin off your lips and moisturize those suckers. Here’s a DIY recipe that you can make with ingredients you already have in your home.

1 teaspoon olive oil

food coloring

Instructions:

 

1) Pour all ingredients into a bowl.

2) Mix them together.

3) For additional color and flavor add an essential oil of your choice, food color, or colored sugar.

To use:

Scrub desired amount onto lips until all the dead skin is off. Wipe off excess with a wash cloth. Moisture right after use.
