{lemon lip scrub}

Posted in diy, Gift Guide, Goody bags, health, Kitchen, Recipe by

Today I’m sharing a lip scrub recipe that you can make at home with kitchen staples that will easily brighten, soften, refresh and moisturize your poor winter lips.  It’s been a long winter and my lips are loving this!

Best part, you have all the ingredients already.  Sugar + honey + oil + scent.

Try it!!  Trust me!

This isn’t just a lip scrub, this could totally be used over the whole body too!

The sugar acts as an exfoliant to smooth chapped, dry lips.  The olive oil, is a super moisturizer that helps the sugar do its work.  You can add any flavor combo your heart desires.

Here’s what you’ll need:

Holly, Bailey’s Elf On the Dam Shelf arrives with Christmas Jams each year.  Normally December 1st.  If you read Friday 5 then you know that Old Navy screwed that all up for me this year…lol.  So Holly arrived on December 2nd.  Which, to my surprise, Bailey didn’t even notice.
I went for the less traditional Christmas Jams this year.  When I saw this metallic gold heart set I knew it was happening.  Super cute and Bay loves them.
She even mentioned that Holly has super cute taste and always picks out the best jams.  As if I have awful taste and pick out the worst…lol!  They were a hit!
In case you’re still in need of a festive pair of pj’s for Christmas morning…I’ve rounded up some cute options.  Target + Old Navy + Gap + J.Crew.  My go-to stores for the best kids stuff.

We got that Friday Feelin’ around here.  I think we can all agree – it’s been a long week and everyone is equally ready for the weekend.  Whatever you do or have planned, ENJOY!!!

It’s Friday, so you know I’ve got 5 things on my mind……

ONE – Back in January my new years resolution was to get myself back.  Not just back in shape.  But, back to feeling good again.  Click here to read about how I got started with Kaia Fit.  I’m currently 14 lbs down from those pre-BRIK photos.  They scare me every time Kaia Woodland shares them on Facebook…lol.  I can’t say enough about Kaia.  It’s changed my life + body.  I can’t thank Melika enough for getting me back here after a brief break.

Tour de Kaia BRIK begins Monday morning at 5am.  I’ve got my meal plan set.  Measurements + weight recorded.  The next 6 week are going to be intense and I’m 100% ready!

Sooooo, in true xoxostacyb fashion – I’m going to once again share with all my readers the nitty-gritty.  I’m sharing my measurements + weight with anyone in the world that wants to see.  Scary AF!  Embarrassing AF!  I’ve found that nothing holds you more accountable than sharing the truth!  Too bad we couldn’t have weighed-in before the Yolo County Fair.  Ha!

 

After seeing the pictures I made the conscious decision to crop my face.  I almost died.  That’s what I look like at 5am?  Haha…my poor Kaia sisters see me like this everyday and I had no idea.  My pre coffee + pre shower look is all bad. #iwokeuplikethis #sorry

I’ve gathered some fun items that I can promise yo mama will love.  Kicker – they are ALL $50 or less.  Most items are from Nordy’s.  Not only is Nordy’s my all time favorite on-line store, but the icing on the cake – FREE SHIPPING.  Always! Sometimes shipping charges are a deal breaker.  Anyone else feel the same?  Plus it’s triple points time now through May 8th.  Take advantage of that shit.
