Cinnamon Bark
As cooler temps start to make their way in throughout Fall and into winter, our skin starts to feel the effects – from dry hands to chapped lips. I’m always applying lip balm to my lips to keep from cracking. Can you relate?
Here’s something I’ll be trying this season. It’s a DIY scrub for your lips that will boost hydration and help plump them up!
Plus, it’s got all the good-smelling autumn feels!
Ingredients you will need:
Combine all ingredients together and store in a small mason jar. To use, simply just take a small amount and gently scrub on your lips for about 15-20 seconds. Wipe off with a soft, wet washcloth for plump and moisturized looking lips!
Cedarwood
The cedarwood oil is great for hydrating and soothing to help minimize dryness, cracking and peeling. Something we all need during the colder months. Simply add 1-2 drops of Cedarwood oil to your favorite moisturizer or blend in with a carrier oil such as coconut oil. Rub this simple mixture into your skin for immediate relief.
Black Pepper
This one is not one you would naturally think to be essential but when added in, makes a perfect recipe for a Fall infused scent. It’s also known to help boost mental clarity and ease sore muscles. So adding it to a bath or massage oil, would also be ideal.
To get started, give this blend a try:
3 drops Black Pepper
3 drops Blood Orange
3 drops Cardamom
