Lip Scrub

Hi,

Chaz had a 3 pice kit with a lip scrub last night for 49 dollars. He claims it is not sugar based which he claims causes dryness. I am looking for a good one. Has anyone used the one by Wen or have a better suggestion.?

Thank you in advance for those who reply.

I am disappointed I missed this yesterday! The reviews are all 5 stars. It seems like it would be a great product. I have the worst chapped lips in the winter, wish I could've gotten it at the one day only price. It's now on waitlist

Thanks for mentioning this product, at least I can watch for it's return.

@annieo A warm washcloth rubbed across the lips w/ an emollient lip balm is all that’s needed. I’ve never found lip scrubs anything but irritating...makes the situation worse.

Just checked it out. Regular price $61.00, price now $55.84 plus $3.00 shipping & handling and probably tax on top of that. For a lip scrub & balm! Wow that must be some serious miracle worker for lips.

So I just went and looked again, now I see it also comes w/3 ounces of a body treatment. Aha, missed that the first look see. Guess that jacks up the price. Nevertheless still too expensive for these chapped lips of mine. Have to pick up some my cheap vaseline lip therapy, works for me.

I use a micro fiber face cloth and water to exfoliate my lips...really removes the dead skin.Then I use whatever is my favourite at the time balm.I sometimes like Vaseline .I have never really found the perfect lip balm.

Thank you. I thought it was expensive even with the body cream, which I have never used. May cancel my waitlist.

@dex

Go to a drugstore & get either Lip Smacker or Burt’s Bees.

inexpensive, readily available.

Lips are not supposed to be exfoliated.

Lips are not supposed to have dead skin.

Stuns me to see these scrubs when the correct lip product

can eliminate all that pain...and that dry skin is a portal of infection.

Strongly suggest Lip Smacker/Burt’s Bees..and use 24/7.

@dex

I know your dilemma!

I grew up on the farm in Nebraska..and those winters can be brutal!

That’s when I discovered Lip Smackers..way back in the 70’s!

Still effective to this day.

I ordered the lip balm from the Chaz Dean website when it debuted last month (I have enough lip scrubs from Sarah Happ). The lip balm is too thick and waxy and reminds me of Chaz's Hair balm in a stick. I'm thinking of using it for that purpose (to flatten the flyaways) because it is too heavy for my lips.

a bit of sugar is all it takes

I wonder if his hair conditioner sales have been on the downward slide and that's why he's been getting into so many hair add on products, body care lotions and now lip products. If so it's probably smart marketing to keep yourself relevant in such a competitive area. Just like makeup companies, they keep adding and changing and trying to convince you that you need their latest and greatest new product.

Agree! Just mix a little sugar with coconut oil. I use the same for my cuticles!

I like Suzanne Somers or Skinn lip scrubs. You can make your own easily too but I havent yet.

@Shanus, ITA. I've heard the Elysee woman (don't recall her name) say that exfoliating the lips removes the protective mantle and just exacerbates the problem -- vicious cycle.

That made sense to me.

I need to get my "protective mantle" off in the winter or I'd walk around with yucky dry lips! So bring on the scrubs, washcloths and balms!

to exfoliate your lips.....apply a thick layer of your favorite lip balm to lips. With a clean toothbrush, gently brush your lips in a circular motion. Apply more lip balm. Do NOT exfoliate lips more than once a week.

Brown sugar and olive oil or, if you have to purchase one, I like Milani's.

@suzyQ3 Yes, I've even heard Linda Marshall say no exfolialting anywhere at all. I have never tried Elysee, but if you listen to her, and read about the company, I can see why the line is successful.
