We pay extra attention to our face, body and hair and we make sure that we do everything to keep them in top condition, but what we often tend to overlook are our lips. Chapped lips are a big no-no and while there are a ton of products out there (including lip balms) that promise to give you smooth lips in a jiffy, nothing can beat the goodness of good old lip scrub.

Just like a face scrub helps get rid of dirt and dead skin from your face and body scrubs do the same for your body, a lip scrub can help get rid of dirt, dead skin, chapped lips and whatnot from your lips. What's more, it can also help keep your lips hydrated for long. While you can opt for multiple different kinds of lip scrubs at home, our favourite is a mixture of sugar and coconut oil.

Here's how you should use your lip scrub on your lips: Start with removing any makeup on your lips using a gentle makeup remover. Wash your lips with water and then take a pea-sized amount of your scrub and apply it to your lips evenly. Start massaging your lips in gentle circular motions using your fingers (you could also use a toothbrush). Do this for about 5 minutes and then wipe your lips with a washcloth. Pat your lips dry and apply lip balm. And voila! You're all done!
