How to Exfoliate Lips

Exfoliation can help remove the dry, dead skin covering the soft lips underneath. Regular exfoliation can help dry lips become moist and plump. If you want great lips, then this is the method for you!

EditSteps

EditFirst Method: Toothbrush

  1. Take an old toothbrush (preferably one with straight bristles which are very soft) and put a bit of petroleum jelly on it.

  3. Leave on the petroleum jelly to rehydrate your lips.

EditSecond Method: Sugar-Based Scrub

  1. Mix a little bit of olive oil with some sugar in a small bowl. Experiment with the quantities until the mixture is pasty in consistency.

  2. Gently rub the mixture on your lips with a washcloth, massaging in circular motions. The longer you rub in the mixture, the more intensely you will exfoliate your lips.

  3. Rinse the mixture off with warm water (try cupping your hands). Because all of the ingredients are non-toxic, swallowing a small amount of the scrub is not dangerous.

  4. Remember to rehydrate the sensitive skin you just exposed by putting on your favorite lip balm to finish it off. Your lips should feel soft and silky smooth.

EditThird Method: Baking Soda Scrub

  1. Take some baking soda and mix it with water to form a gritty paste.

  4. Remember that baking soda and water do not moisturize your lips at all, so be sure to apply a moisturising lip balm when done.

EditFourth Method: Honey Sugar Scrub

  1. Take sugar and honey (less sugar than honey) and mix it all together. Then apply it in a circular motion and leave it for a couple minutes or so.

  2. Wash it off and rub with a gentle cloth.
    • You can leave it on for a whole night and sleep with it if you wish, but remember to put a strip of paper towel on your lips, lightly push, and keep your head upright. This works well for back sleepers. In the morning, remove paper strip, and wash it off.

EditTips

  • Make sure to moisturize your lips frequently to maintain soft lips.
  • Do not lick your lips. It will only further aggravate them.
  • You should moisturize your lips with lip balm/chapstick or petroleum jelly after exfoliating.
  • You can always substitute olive oil with coconut oil.
  • Whenever you feel the urge to lick your lips, put on some chapstick.
  • You can use olive oil instead of a moisturizer — it also is great on your hair!
  • If you use the first method, some of the sugar might fall off, so you might want to do it over a sink.
  • If you add cinnamon to any of the above mixtures, it will serve as a natural lip plumper. However, be careful because cinnamon can irritate your lips, making them itchy and chapped.

EditWarnings

  • Be gentle with your lips. Scrubbing too hard or for too long will leave them sore and chapped.
