So hard to not burst into a rendition of Santa Baby when using this lip scrub.
I had tried Bubblegum so long ago but only recently re-purchased it along with this festive scrub)... sweet, sweet cola with cute red hearts all through it. I love the scent, just like a fresh crisp drink of cola. This lip scrub is a bit different to me with the confetti through it, and it's a bit dryer than others I have used in the past but it still works well and I love the novelty of it but the wee hearts can be a bit annoying.
This scrubs well and is a bit harsher than the bubblegum one but also gently effective, while leaving my lips feeling smooth without irritation (I have a sensitive top lip due to repetitive cold sore in one place).
Oh and it tastes as good as it smells (don't eat it all though).
A Christmas twist to the popular Lush lip scrubs is this cola flavoured red lip scrub. Packaged in a convenient and well sized glass pot, the formula is with caster sugar to create the exfoliating effect which it is said can then be licked off lips- I can't say I'm very fond on eating the skin I have just exfoliated off my lips- I much prefer to rinse with water! The scrub is quite dry and crumbly, I just scoop a bit out and rub it over my lips for a few seconds- not too hard as it is quite abrasive. Along with the sugar, there's little heart shapes as well which is cute. The flavour is a subtle, sugary cola flavour which is quite pleasant. My lips are left very smooth and soft afterwards and I notice I have less dry, flakey lips with regular use - ready for the kids to see mummy kissing Santa Claus underneath the Christmas tree!
Tips: Don't over scrub! It's better to do it more regularly and gently, than really rough once a week.
