Brown sugar lip scrub - scrub discontinued by Not Soap Radio - review by Gimme More

I had never used a scrub before ordering this product. I had always wanted to but I'm not one to make my own and had never bothered searching for one while shopping. My lips tend to collect dead skin and it's a real pain sometimes. Whenever I try to wear lipstick it ends up looking awful if I forget to take care of the dead skin first. I was finally sick and tired of the problem and decided to try to counteract it with a scrub.

Like I said, I have never used a scrub other than this one so I can't really compare it to any other experiences and this review is based solely on this product. When I first applied it I loved the smell and it didn't taste too bad either. I also have a bad habit of licking my lips, hence the awful dead skin outcome. I used a lip brush to apply it but if you don't have one handy it's easy to use your finger too. However, I prefer a brush because not only is it less messy, it also is healthier since you won't be transferring germs from your finger directly to your mouth. After applying it and waiting a bit for it to do it's magic I wiped it off my lips and voilà: no more dead skin! I was very pleased with the result, although my lips felt a bit chapped afterward. It was worth the removal of the dead skin. The pot is fairly small, especially for the price. I think next time I may just try to make my own. It's not quite the satisfying "brown sugar" Mick Jagger sang about but it gets the job done.
