Dry lip fix...

I have a reoccurring beauty problem.  My lips.  It seems that no matter the season, or what I use on them, they get dry.  Not just dry, but parched.

 They get painful.  They split.  It gets impossible for my to wear my lipsticks and glosses because of the flakes (which is totally unacceptable).

After YEARS of trying everything...from Vaseline, to chap stick, to prescription ointments...I've finally found a routine that works.


Whenever my lips are giving me trouble...I pull out...

 

 

This Cocoa Butter balm is, without a doubt, the best balm I have ever used. Another positive?  one

tube is like $1.50!  I have a surplus of this stuff.  I slide some on whenever my lips feel a little dry (and pack it on before bed). 

 

 Where does the sugar come into play?  Well, once a week, I'll place a thin layer of the balm on, and use a wet finger to pick up some sugar, and I start scrubbing.  the roughness of the sugar created an awesome scrub that eliminates all those dry areas of skin.

 

Since I've started this, I've noticed huge difference in the condition of my lips. I haven't had to go lip gloss-free since, which I love.
