Okay ladies (and you gents listen up too!), it’s time for some serious lip service. The literal kind. Exfoliating your skin is pretty common, but how often do you think about those poor little lips of yours? They need love too. We use them for everything from smacking to smooching and yet, a little chapstick is usually all the love they see. Scrubbing away dead skin cells leaves your lips soft, supple and supremely kissable.
So, what are you waiting for? Get ready to pucker up!
