AHA+BHA+Jojoba make good lip exfoliators

  • print this

I mentioned awhile ago that I’ve been having problems wearing lip glosses and lipsticks. My lips became very dry especially under air-conditioned environment and I had these white clumpy stuff from whatever I’m wearing on my lower lips. Needless to say, I looked awful. At first I thought it was the ingredients from my lip glosses and lipsticks causing some allergies but apparently it was not. The issue was the dead skin on my lips which I never thought of removing!

Lip scrub challenge
Because the skin around our lips are particularly thin and has no oil glands, so scrubbing them can be a challenge. Plus I wanted a method that does not require me having to spend more. 

I tried regular facial scrubs but obviously, they didn’t work for me. I tried using a toothbrush and a washcloth to scrub my lips but both methods did not work well either. I mentioned a DIY method which is to use Aspirin lip scrub with a finely crushed, uncoated aspirin with a little white granulated sugar and a bit of jojoba oil for moisture. However, being lazy, I preferred to exfoliate my lips with a readily available product.
