How To Get That Luscious Kissable Lips This Festive Season

Today's post is a tip on getting nice, smooth, healthy looking lips this season. The lips are a very important part of the body, and one of the main attractions on anyone's face. The last thing you want to have are crusty, cracked, blistered lips especially if you are one who will be spending the season with your spouse.   

For those who enjoy biting their lips, and i don't mean in a sexy way, but biting and cutting of cracked skin till it bleeds, that ish aint sexy, at all.

Now how do you get your lips looking plump and fresh like the picture above you ask? One word, exfoliate. Regular exfoliation is the best thing you can do to not only your skin but your lips too. I'm going to tell you how to achieve this; you need the following;

Brown Sugar - serves as a good scrub, helps remove dead skin effectively while leaving a sweet taste in your mouth.

Natural Honey - has very good nutrients and will help to lock in some moisture in the lips

An old toothbrush - Because it been used a lot, the bristles wont be as hard as a new one. You aren't trying to make your lips bleed, all you need is to buffer them a bit.

Sweet lip balm to help moisturise your lips. Always have some handy!

STEP 1:

Put a teaspoon of brown sugar into a small clean bowl and add a table spoon of honey to it. Mix it together till you have a nice grainy paste.

STEP 2:

Take some of the sugar-honey mix with the old toothbrush and scrub your lips. Scrub them just like you brush your teeth, use gentle circular movements. Brush the upper lip from side to side, open your mouth a little and get the inside lip, do the same to your lower lip.

Just think of where you would normally cover when applying lipstick.

STEP 3:

After doing the gentle lip brushing for about a minute, rinse off with luke warm water, pat dry with a clean towel and then a very important part...

STEP 4:

Apply a good moisturizer on your lips, flavored lip balm, chapstick or just good ole regular Vaseline will do just fine.

I recommend you exfoliate your lips once or twice a week to keep them looking nice and luscious. If your lips look good, you look healthy and you can get the lipstick effect below easily.

Seasons greetings from us to you, and we wish you fantastic 2014 as the year a wrap up!
