Description
We wanted a mint choc chip tasting lip scrub – and we think we’ve done it here, with peppermint, vanilla and tagetes oil.
Clears dead skin and flakiness from lips, leaving them moisturised and smooth.
Our lip scrubs are made from castor sugar to act as a gentle scrub and jojoba oil to be wonderfully moisturising but light enough not to leave you feeling greasy. Keeps lips in tip top condition, for kissing, pouting, talking or anything else you wish to do with them.
Provides a great base for lipstick, which looks much better on smooth prepared lips.
Rowena and Charlotte – our very own Lush make up fanatics – wanted something to prepare the lips before applying lipstick. They are always lecturing us about how people don’t pay enough attention to their lips and how they are one of the first things that the eye is drawn towards when people look at your face.
After much work, they discovered that the exact right size of sugar grain could provide a gentle safe scrub and taste yummy too – especially when combined with a lovely flavour.

Summary
Lush has become one of my absoute favourite brands. I love their values and products. This is no exception. It smells delicious and tastes delicious, and does the job. This leaves the lips baby smooth, but also with a fresh minty tingle. It's easy to carry around and use anywhere. So happy with this product, and also with its price.

I quite like these tasty lip scrubs from Lush and have had a few over time. This tingles the lips and as well as the scrubbing action the mint stimulates the lips and makes them red and glowing and healthy looking. You can lick off the excess sugar - yummy!

Summary
I adore this lip scrub, it reminds me of after eights, a chocolate mint scent and flavour.
It is quite a dry scrub which is fine, the oils do work on leaving lips moisturised and soft.
You can lick it off after which makes it less messy.
Feels quite cooling on the lips too. It's amazing!

Summary
never heard of a lip scrub before but i though i;d give it a go. you only need a tiny bit to remove any dead skin and liven up your lips giving them a natural rosy glow,
Would you recommend this product?
Yes
The chocolate mint flavouring is amazing. Although I wouldn't lick the product off my lips like the instructions recommend - I don't want to eat my own dead skin!
I haven't given this top marks for packaging and ease of use because you do have to dig it out of the jar, getting it under your finger nails. The glass jar means it is less practical for travelling and making it in a stick form would be perfect.
The jar has lasted me a really long time too.
