Daily Lips

So sorry about the lack of posts! I had surgery and blogging has been the last thing on my mind. But I am back!
Today I decided to write about some of my favorite "daily use" lip products.
I love, love, love lip scrubs. Peter Thomas Roth Lips to Die For Lip Facial Trio has a great lemon sugar scrub. It leaves lips incredibly soft. It is definitely the stand out product of the trio. I like to use a lip scrub at night before bed and then later on a thick, rich lip moisturizer. The draw back is the other two products are okay, and it is expensive! At $60, I don't think this is a product I will purchase again.
My current favorite is Beauty Rehab Rose Salve. It goes on light, but is so moisturizing and smells great! At only $10, I suggest you pick some up and be on your way to soft, luscious lips.
I have a deep affection for rose, because Smiths Rosebud Salve ends up on my lips just about every day. I love the cute tin it comes in and it gives your lips a healthy sheen.
If my lips are very dry I always reach for Aquaphor healing ointment. I have a tube within reach
at all times. It was a godsend when I took accutane, and years later still knocks out chapped lips quick.
If I need a tube of chapstick to put in my pocket I love, love, love Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15. Goes on smooth and leaves your lips soft and fresh. Bonus--it smells wonderful! The only downside is it is expensive, $22.50 a tube. Want something more pcoketbook friendly? Pick up a tube of cocoa butter for 99 cents at your local drugstore. It is super mositurizing and a great cheap thrill.
There you have it. The bare necessities when it comes to lips!
