Bought this as loved the sound of the flavour to be really honest - apple. Love anything with a fruity/summery vibe so thought I would given it a try.
It’s okay is all I have to say, I felt that the sugar is a little harsh on your lips and it can be a little clogged up in the pot. Whilst I will use the pot up, I don’t think I’ll purchase again. Still on the hunt for a decent budget lip scrub...

I am in my late 30's/early 40's with normal, light tone skin and blue eyes. My hair is blonde, processed with normal texture.
No matter the time of year I always get dry & chapped lips. I use a lip scrub in my skincare routines both morning and night. This one didn’t disappoint at all. I purchased the peppermint one and it smelt good. The scrub itself I found really exfoliated my lips well. It contains Vitamin E & Olive Oil antioxidants which help prevent & reverse skin damage in addition to Avocado & Jojoba Oils which soften and hydrate & this really did soften my lips and made them feel more hydrated. It’s so easy to use. Simply put some on your lips for exfoliation then rinse off. I really enjoyed using this and the pot lasted me ages. I would definitely recommend this to you and I would repurchase. They have around 5 flavours in the range. I want to try the apple one next. Oh and this lip scrub tasted yummy too!

It feels like a bit moist sugar. Tastes like it too. It’s really crumbly so when you’re trying to get it out it goes everywhere. When you’re trying to rub on your lips it will fall everywhere and won’t even stay on your lips. You would get exact same results if you take out sugar from your cupboard and rub it on your lips. Didn’t do much either. Didn’t see any change or difference before and after. A bit useless I would say.

✨I’m really not feeling this lip scrub 😔 I got it free on a 3 for 2 offer in Superdrug because I was too skint to afford a J* one 😂
It is quite literally, flavoured sugar with no moisture. I have the Mango flavour one and whilst it tastes lovely, it would be the same as getting some granulated sugar out of my cupboard and rubbing it on my lips.
As there is no moisture to bind it all together, it makes the scrub quite abrasive and not very pleasant to use. It is also a nightmare to get it out of the pot, as it just falls apart.
Love that it’s cruelty free, love the taste, but the product itself just doesn’t work!

Had the same experience. Ended up chucking it. I’ve not tried the Jeffree ones but love the MAC ones. Currently using a Dr Paw Paw Duo which is perfect in my opinion x
This is a really nice product, it makes my lips feel smoother and less dry. The mango one smells (and tastes) amazing, I use this once a week and my lips feel a lot less "tight" and dry which is great because during certain seasons it could get quite uncomfortable.

I am in my late teens/early 20's with dry, fair tone skin and blue eyes. My hair is light brown, normal with coarse texture.
I was really looking forward to using this. The smell and taste (Mango) is nice. But the scrub itself is too dry. It is so messy to apply both with a lip brush or your finger. The grains of sugar just fall apart. Maybe I will try to put in a few drops of oil to mould it together.

Been looking for a good lip scrub for a little while now and this one hit it right on the mark. Nice smell, feels good to use and leaves your lips feeling amazingly soft and well looked after.

I am in my mid 30's with dry, tanned tone skin and brown eyes. My hair is dark brown, asian with normal texture.
So I'd recommend doing this without the rest of your make up on as you can't really do it without going outside of the lip line, but the effects are usually pretty good! Not massively long lasting but I believe this is due to me being a bit dehydrated a lot of the time, but my lipstick definitely goes on smoother afterwards.
