review: lush popcorn lip scrub

I've never really bothered with lip scrubs. It all seemed a bit pointless to me until my lips started flaking a lot after using lip balm and I realised to get baby soft lips, I would need to exfoliate them in some way. I had heard so much about Lush's lip scrubs but always a bit scared at the fact you have to lick it off. During a #bbloggers chat one night, someone who worked at Lush offered to answer any questions about their products so I asked if it was a necessary step to lick it off and to cut a long story short, no, you don't.

I mosied my way over to Lush and picked up this little jar of sugar scrub and left feeling about £5.25 lighter. I use this after my night skincare routine and wash off the excess with some warm water. Might seem pointless to wash it off but I did really try to lick it off one time and I just did not like it. It leaves my lips feeling soft and you can just about taste the remains of popcorn-y goodness on your lips. The taste is exactly what it says on the lid; a buttery caramel taste. 

You do get quite a lot of product in the jar and you really don't need that much each time you use it. Would I buy a lip scrub again? I would say a tentative yes but the price tag is enough to put me off. 

Lush lip scrubs are £5.25 each. Not sure if the Popcorn scrub is still available as it is limited edition but they have a variety of different flavours to try out!

Have you tried this lip scrub? What do you think of lip scrubs in general?
