Honey Vanilla Brown Sugar Lip Scrub
Hey guys! Make your own all-natural lip scrub with sugars and spices easily found in your own kitchen! With a bit of tinkering, you can even make it taste like a snickerdoodle cookie. My first foray into homemade beauty products, first via Squareknot and now Instructables. <3 This makes roughly two little servings that I packed into two small 13 mL jars.

Materials:
1 small mixing bowl
1 little spreader to mix with
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons white granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon of olive oil
1 teaspoon of honey
1/4 teaspoon (or just a few drops) of vanilla extract
3 or more dashes of cinnamon
Add Both Sugars in a Small Bowl
Mix!
The brown sugar I used had a tad bit of moisture in it, which caused it to clump a bit, so you might do a bit of chopping when mixing. This'll go away when you add the other ingredients. Just look at that adorable little pineapple spreader. <3
Add the Olive Oil, Then Honey, Then Mix. Oh, and Add the Vanilla Extract Too.
It's helpful to mix each time you add an ingredient to get a good consistency. Also: Sooooo, I totally wanted to use a little 'bebe 1/2 teaspoon for this photo. So yep. Done.
Add a Couple Dashes of Cinnamon to Taste
I started out with three light taps, and added more from there until it tasted almost like a snickerdoodle cookie. Mmmmmm.
Mix Super Well!
Transfer to Little Containers for Friends
And make sure the lids go on tightly, don't want to attract ants in the summertime!
And You're Done!
To use, simply rub the sugar on your lips gently, then lick off the rest! Hope you enjoyed my guide!
Psssst, for anyone who's curious, I help build this!
