Lush Lip Scrub Review

I bet I’m not the only person who heard about this product, before they heard about Lush. Before I was into my bubble bars, bath bombs, and masks, the one product I had heard about was Lush’s lip scrub. To be more specific, the bubble-gum lip scrub. I really heard about this scrub, before I heard about the brand it was from. So when clearly, this had to be the first lush product I tried, although the buying did not stop there.

This lip scrub comes in a small glass container, and honestly, I kind of found it hard to spend $12.00 on this tiny jar of product! However, peer pressure, and word of mouth told me I had to do it, so i had to purchase it. It has a small black plastic lid, and the simple lush logo’s.

Now, when you open this product, let me tell you, it is filled to the brim! I swear they have had a hard time closing that lid because there is no empty space in the glass jar at all, which is awesome because when I pay $12.00 for something that small, I don’t want half of it to be air.

This lip scrub is a beautiful candy pink, and you can see its made up of small sugar granules, that look and smell delicious.. Okay it also tastes delicious. I mean how could I have used this product, and not tasted it. I use my finger to get some product out of the glass jar, and use my finger to rub this product over my damp lips. A process I do over the sink because boy, can it get messy quickly. As lips are one of the most sensitive areas on your face, you will be happy to know that I found the lip scrub really gentle, and the scrub does a pretty good job at getting the dead skin off my lip, and leaves my lips feeling soft, and smooth, without feeling dried out, or sensitive.

This is a decent product to have in your home. It is a wee bit expensive for a lips scrub, and I do think it would be pretty easy to make your own at a cheaper price, which might not smell or taste as good, but would do pretty much the same thing. This isn’t my favourite lip scrub because of the price, and the mess factor, but it is okay so I would repurchase it, but most likely when it is on sale.

Oh this lip scrub comes in a little glass jar with a black screw top lid. This xmas scrubb I got is a beautiful shade of red and does smell of xmas, smells a little bit of cola and xmas spice and it looks amazing sitting in this wee jar and it smells eatable. So I stick my finger in and scoop out a blob, it feels very heavy and the beads of scrubb are quite big. So I slap this on my lips that are moist with a little water and rub this scrub around. It feels quite nice and tastes ok as a little bit gets in my mouth so I'm not eating it I can just taste it. I find it quite hard to scrub just my lips, so lips and surrounding area get done, and when I look up into the mirror I look like a clown trying to remove my red lipstick. Ha ha my mouth is red with this stuff all over my mouth, so I give it a good rinse and then I have to pick some wee bits of red scrub bits off. Hmmmm well I can't wait to get through the pottle then chuck it and I won't buy any ever again. It was not what I expected, the scrub itself was just too sticky and the beads off scrubb didn't really do much scrubbing and the red nearly stained my face, I was so disappointed as I've brought this for presents for people before and had never tried it. I'm bad.

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!

This is amazing! I purchased the Mint Julips Scrub and I absolutely love it! Tastes just like mint chocolate biscuits and my lips feel so soft afterwards.

I love this product. I usually use mint julip which is delicious mixfof mint and chocolate. Also have cola and popcorn to mix it up some days. The cola is the best for not separating.

I keep it in reach of the shower and use after cleansing which cuts down on mess from droped product.

Using it everyday in winter along stoped me from getting cracked lips even once (un heard of for me).

I had seen the company lush come up as I was googling products so I thought I'd look into it. As we don't have the store here where I live I was looking at buying online. But before that I went to Christchurch and was looking in a store and then I realized I was in LUSH!! I fell inlove with so many things and my boyfriend just let me go crazy on buying things haha. I got this lip scrub as I had seen my friends use it and I wanted to try it. When we got home I made everyone in the house try it with me (even the guys) and we all loved it. The guys had dry chapped lips as they work out doors and they couldn't beleive how good there lips felt after wards. Us girls now use it twice a week and our lips are always feeling amazing. We use nude papaw ointment on our lips after wards also. The taste is great also. I highly recommend this brand everything else I got from there is amazing!

This is the first Lush product I have purchased and i'm glad I did! It comes it a cute little 25g pot and smells delicious!

I just rub a small amount of the scrub over my lips and lick off the leftovers, and my lips feel super soft afterwards. This is perfect for using before matte lip colours to make sure the colour doesnt set into dry spots. The fact that it tastes good is just a bonus!

It can get a bit messy if you use alot so I normally do it over the sink just in case.

Makes your lips feel nice and smooth by rubbing a small amount on your lips. You can eat the scrub after using it but it doesn't have the best taste to it. I love the bubble gum smell though just not the taste. It can get quite messy if you pick too much on your finger so best to use it over the bathroom basin. I probably won't purchase this again as you can easily make your own lip scrub with products in you kitchen pantry. However I would like to try the other flavours

My lips are chronically dry and by dry I mean they're flaky and no moisture lives there. I'm always using copious amounts of lip balm and only use moisturising lipsticks to add extra moisture to my lips.

The BR girls are constantly raving about Lush and their amazing range, so I thought why not... Jump on the band wagon. I got the strawberry lip scrub and my oh my...

The consistency is castor sugar with strawberry flavouring and I need to point out that I'm amazed this isnt for human consumption because when I use it I cant resist a lick of the lips. The flavour is delicious!!

The consistency is gritty when you apply it to your lips but not rough at all. I use tiny amount, probably as much as what my index finger can scoop out, and alittle goes a long way. I apply to my bottom and top lip and rub vigoriously for about 1 minute. Even though you rub vigoriously, the gritty consistency doesnt hurt and its not painful on the lips. Its just like exfoliating but only on your lips. You can actually see the skin of your being shed which is so cool :).

After rubbing for 1 minute, I leave it for about another minute so my lips can soak up the oils in the scrubs. After that I remove with a towel and wow wee baby soft lips await me! I immediately apply lipbalm after the scrub to hold in the moisture of the scrub.

I use the scrub about twice a week and my lips after so much more moistured and soft and my lipstick is looking amazing on these soft, kissable lips. I recommend this scrub to everyone looking to scrub away dead skin and flaky lips.

I was given this as a gift, bubblegum flavour and I love it! It is something I had never heard of before but also just what I needed! I get quite dry lips so as a scrub this removed the flaky skin and tastes/smells devine! I have told heaps of people about it. You can exfoliate your body and face, why not your lips too!?
