This week's quick tip is about how to make your own strawberry lip scrub!
A bunch of my friends are really obsessed with this lip scrub, it's from Lush and it's
bubblegum and it smells so good. But I was looking at the ingredients and it's
basically just sugar, oil and colours. And it's like, hmm, seems a bit much to pay
$10 for a tiny bottle of this. Aus prices are crazy so better to save money
for important things. When you could really make it yourself in
about 2 minutes. So let's get going
You'll need sugar, oil and some kind of food flavouring, I'm using strawberry.
It doesn't really matter what kind of oil you use, I'm just using cheap blended vegetable
oil but you could use something good like coconut oil for extra benefits but because
it's just for scrubbing away dead skin it really doesn't matter.
In your mixing bowl, place a couple of teaspoons of sugar.
How much you use is going to depend on how much you want to make.
Roughly 1tsp of oil for 3tsp of sugar. If you're making a single scrub just use one
teaspoon. If you want to make some more for later then
add a couple. Add a really tiny bit of oil.
I put 3tsp of sugar in so I'm going to use 1tsp of oil.
Now mix it up so it's all squidgy and pastey It should have this consistency.
Add a drop of your food flavouring. This one is from Robert's confectionary and
it smells so good. This is what I used for those cute little
flavoured sugars that I made. Mix mix mix.
This is for strawberry but obviously you can use whatever flavour you like. Though if you
don't like strawberry I don't know if we can hang out anymore.
And so you end up with something like this. It smells so good, you guys don't even know.
So this is the original one and this is our version.
Pretty similar yes? So to use it all you need to do is take off
your lipstick, get a little bit of the scrub on a spoon and get it everywhere.
Obviously apply to your lips and scrub away. Good luck not eating it... because it's sugar.
I'm not going to judge you... taadaa And there you have it, you should have beautiful
nice soft lips. And you probably spent like 4 cents
If you're going to eat the sugar, probably do this one before brushing your teeth, just
saying. Hope you guys enjoyed this, let me know if
you try it out and I'll see you guys next week. Bye!

There's even a super cute puppy! This is going to end up somewhere terrible
on the internet... I just know it. I forgot the oil.
Do you want me to get it? Yes please...
