e.l.f Studio Lip Exfoliator Review

I have Lush lip scrubs but I really like the handiness of having a lip scrub in a tube because it's less messy you also don't need to dip your fingers into a pot or worry about the grains going under your long nails. This scrub is one of the cheaper ones available on the market and it's pretty natural which I like because sometimes I'm too lazy to wipe it off and so I lick it off. The ingredients are sugar, avocado, grapeseed and jojoba oil, carnuba and candelilla wax, ceresin, shea butter and vitamin E. Before I heard of this lip exfoliator I was considering buying the lip scuff from the The Body Shop because it had the convenience of being in a stick format whereas this has almost all natural ingredients and it's a fifth of the price as the Body Shop one. The only cons I can think of this product is that there is a bit of tendency for little dry bits you exfoliated off your lips to stay on the stick. Another con is because it's so popular it's often hard to find because it's sold out. And lastly this does have aspartame in it which it an artificial sweetener I don't know why it needs it as it has plenty sugar in it already to sweeten it. Despite all that I do think it's one of the better lip scrubs on the market especially considering the ingredients and price and I will definitely repurchase when it's used up.

I have very dry lips, so I wear lip balm every night, and lipstick everyday to protect them. However, they still get dry and peel a lot. This is not only uncomfortable, but it makes it difficult to wear matte lipsticks as my dry lip skin shows through. I decided the solution was to use a lip exfoliator.

While there are plenty of lip balms to be found, I had trouble finding an exfoliator for the lips. This is the first one that I have tried. I came across it after a search on Amazon. I am very pleased I found it. Not only is it quite cheap, but it has made such a difference to my lips!

The scrub comes in a square, bullet lipstick tube, and winds up like a lipstick. You apply it to your lips like a lipstick as well. I use it in the shower everyday. It really does help to remove dead skin from my lips, and since I started using it a couple of months ago I have definitely noticed an improvement in the texture of my lips.

The only drawback is that the scrub is very sweet. Although you are not meant to ingest it, you cannot help but taste it when applying it to your lips. The sugar flavour is far to sweet for me so I don't enjoy tasting it.

Altogether I love this product and I have already repurchased it.

Purchased out of need to fix dry, uneven lip skin. Super easy to use and works every time, it even tastes good. One of those products that you can use for a touch up or to even make as part of your pampering ritual. Super affordable and long lasting could not ask for a better product. Brand loyal for this product.

This is the only lip exfoliator I've tried, so I can't give any comparisons to others, however I was surprised at how well it works, for the low price (which isn't surprising with e.l.f). I didn't mind the taste, it was better than tasting chemicals.

I was actually not into lip scrubs and exfoliator then ELF suddenly got an online sale which gives you free shipping upon achieving a certain amount. And so, I added this item to my cart.

When I opened it, the smell is really nice! It is also easy to apply since it's like a lipstick than the other lip scrubs that are in a pot. I like the effect on my lips because I feel moisturized right after I swipe it on my lips.

I repurchased this when ELF got another online sale.

So...I love me a matte lip...but I hate the look when my lips are dry and flakey. I've made a lip scrub before and have another one now...I add it into my evening tooth brushing time...but you have to get all sugary and gross to do it.

This little baby is fun, easy, clean, and tidy, and can be done anywhere. Just rub and apply like lipstick, then wipe granules away with a face wipe. Done! Applied some balm, and you have nice clean scrubbed lips...all the better for kissing hahahaha.

I originally purchased this as it reminded me of the one the Body Shop used to sell (I can’t remember the name) which I loved as it was so easy to use. This product comes in a sturdy black lipstick tube and can be used whenever your lips need some exfoliation. It is definitely easy to use and smells quite nice, almost like maple syrup but I would probably not purchase this again. I have found that I really have to push down hard on my lips and then the product breaks off. I’ve also made my lips bleed while trying to get the chapped skin off as the granules are very big but not overly even. You need to rinse it off your lips after use which was actually quite messy to do as it literally sticks to the lips so you need a flannel to remove it. For the price it is a decent lip scrub but I personally think it’s worth paying a little more and buying a decent one or even making your own.

Great Lip Exfoliant for a really good price. So good to use before applying lipstick for a day out or night out. If you were weary about this prodcut don't be. Best buy.

I bought this product because I've caught the 'elf bug' after watching and reading so many different reviews on all of their other products. This was more of a miss than a hit for me. It was initially very solid- I thought when it warmed up, it would improve.

It didn't.

It went from feeling like a concrete block-style exfoliator, to collapsing in the tube into mush and getting into the bullet mechanism of the lipstick.

When you actually get it onto the lips, it works pretty well, but then you have to remove it, and it doesn't taste great either. I have others I far prefer. It may be intended for an on-the-go exfoliate, but I don't know a) who does exfoliate their lips on-the-go? And b) who would want an on-the-go exfoliator that collapses into it's packaging and becomes essentially useless after a couple of tries.

I'll stick with my much tastier and only slightly more expensive alternatives thanks!

I like the idea of a "lip scrub" in the form of a lipstick. Makes for a easy application. Took the dry peely skin off my lips and left my lips feeling smoother and hydrated
