Lush Lip Scrub Review

This is one of those products I would never of dreamed of buying but received it in a gift pack and got a big surprise.

I received the Xmas/Santa cola version. At first was very surprised at how dry the product was I expected it to be like a facial scrub. However my lips felt amazing afterwards!!

The feeling is short lived but that is not the products fault and would be enhanced if you put lip balm on afterwards.

The glitter hearts in the product and the colouring I felt are unnecessary.

The flavour is amazing, however it doesn't smell as great as it tastes.

But overall I am sold

I finally got around to visiting a Lush store over the weekend, and bought home this little beauty in Mint Julip. Firstly I'll comment on the price. I've never tried any other store bought scrubs, so can't compare it in that way, but I have made my own. From a quick glance at the ingredients list I see that this is pretty similar to a home made sugar scrub, only it smells a lot better. Obviously a home made scrub doesn't cost anywhere near $12 to make, but for the convenience of having a scrub in a pot I'm happy to pay for Lush's product, especially when supporting such a progressive brand. The scrub itself smells amazing. You only need a little bit to rub on your lips, and because you don't have to wipe it off it's easy to use on the run. They have used castor sugar in the scrub which has quite large granules, I do think I get a better exfoliating result when using finer sugar, but this still does the trick. I use a little tiny bit every morning before chapstick, it gives my lips a smooth, tingly feel and makes your lipstick look so much better!

I received the Cola Lip Scrub from Lush for Christmas and boy have I been left impressed! This little pottle of sugar and deliciousness packs a punch with it's exfoliant powers. You only need a little bit, rub it on/between your lips then you get to lick it off! It's a win-win, you get some sweetness and you end up with smooth lips ready for the most matte lipstick to look perfect!

The scrub tastes and smells amazing, and it really makes your lips feel replenished and fresh after using it. It is really good for in the wintertime when my lips get a bit chapped (and frankly not very kissable!). I just use this as part of a nightly skin routine and they are left feeling supple and lovely :)

It can however make a little bit of a mess but definitely worth adding to a beauty routine :)

When my lips need a treat, this is what I use. I get dry lips in colder months and if I wear lipstick every day. This is a great product to get rid of dead skin. I have Mint Julips which is amazing because the mint is so refreshing it's almost good enough to eat. I recommend this and I find this to be inexpensive.

I love this lip scrub as it is super yummy and makes my lips feel so much nicer and more smooth! However for very dry lips it doesn't remove all dry/dead skin and so in this instance it might be better to use something more heavy-duty. However I love the price and the fact that it is a natural product.

I love this lip scrub! I have the bubblegum flavour and i love the colour of it. It smells and tastes really yum. I use my fingers to scrub it on and it works a treat :)

It doesn't ex-foliate my lips as well as my other scrub but it still does the trick!

I would reccomend this product and the price isnt bad as it lasts for ages!

I bought this as just had to try it and see what the fuss was all about, basically it's bubblegum flavoured sugar, i used to make my own scrub with brown sugar and honey and does the same job but the bubblegum flavour makes it worth buying. Its a gentle scrub, like any sugar lip scrub so nothing AMAZING, does the job. I find if i over use it it makes my lips extremely dry and have to make sure you lather the lip balm on top, it gets rid of flaky lips which i find i get really badly after wearing MAC Lady Danger, this scrub is a must after that lipstick. I would probably purchase it again just for the convenience of it being in a tub and me not having to make my own but really it's just a $12 tub of bubblegum flavoured sugar

I picked up the Bubblegum version of this and it smells divine a bit sweet but I have a bit of a sweet tooth so that is okay! It is perfect to use before applying a matte lipstick as it really preps your lips for a perfect application. I wouldn't recommend using it everyday just when needed as it is quite pricey for the size, if you do that it lasts a very long time! Now it always has a spot on my beauty shelf, especially with matte lipsticks being so popular at the moment!

I am a huge Lush fan; so I promise not to be bias! I have started to use lipstick a lot more regularly than I used to and quickly noticed how dry my lips were becoming... so I purchased Lush's Popcorn Lip Scrub. It definitely does what it's suppose too; my lips were left feeling smooth and soft. Added bonus: The scrub tastes amazing! It is a bit pricey for how tiny it is and it can be quite messy too! But all in all I would purchase it again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.
