Lush Mint Julips Lip Scrub Review =]
Hello Beauties! =) I have a big annoucenement: I've added a rule to my giveaway which is that I won't accept blogs that are just made for giveaways. I realized that there's a lot of them and I find it not fair to my other followers who actually reads my blog and my giveaway was for them in the first place. AND I'm currently on a No-buy mode for makeup and skincare products for the whole month of June! So the products that I'll review it's all from previous purchase (I have a lot lol don't worry I won't run short on them =P.)
So today I'll review one Lush's Mint Julips lip scrub. This product already existed in the UK and was launched in the US afterwards & then migrated to Canada (finally haha)! I was so excited because I've been eyeing badly this product since I discovered it.
There's 3 flavor that you can choose from: Bubble Gum, Mint Julip and Sweet Lips (milk chocolate bar). The lady told me that the bubble gum one was the most popular, but not being a big bubble gum flavor fan, I stood away from it lol. I love peppermint flavor so I went for the mint julips one :D It does smell like peppermint but with a twist of chocolate. Love!
It comes in a 0.8oz jar and it's filled to the max! =O =O It's a sugar scrub and I must say that it works pretty well and it's yummy too since you can lick the product away XD You can actually see the grains of sugar and they do a good job at exfoliating my lips. I can't say that all the dead skin is scrubbed away because my top lip is still a bit rough but it leaves the rest very smooth.
After giving my lips a good scrub, I always apply a lip balm afterward to keep my lips hydrated and prevent more chapped skin. Lets take a look at the ingredients!
What I like about this lip scrub:
Packaging: 4/5 Involves finger dipping!
Quality: 4.5/5 Exfoliate nicely my lip & it's yummy ;D
Price: 5/5 Bought it at Lush for 8$
Scent: 5/5 Love the chocolate peppermint scent!
Would I repurchase? Yuup :)

What I like about this lip scrub:
- taste yummy and leaves a fresh minty breath =D
- Last a long time! I bought it a few weeks ago and it's still full to the max!
- A little bit goes a long way
- Affordable, bought it for 8$CAN
- Get rids of most of the dead skin in my lips
- I have to use my fingers to scrub
- You have to use lipbalm after in order to keep your lips smooth
- can be a bit messy if you put to much. I had some sugar on my chin and the corner of my mouth LOL!

ReplyDeleteprobably try it out one day
thank you for the review x
kool i love LUSH products and i cannot get enough of them! i wonder if it would be messy if u used an old toothbrush to apply it on ur lips? usually use a toothbrush (alone) to exfoliate my lips before wearing lipstick...
ReplyDeleteI love how that lip scrub looks! It's so natural looking, haha. Peppermint chocolate sounds really delicious! One of my fave flavors is mint chocolate :D
ReplyDelete@London's beauty: Yup! haha =P
ReplyDelete@Oreleona: Me too! I jumped into the bandwagon not long ago and I'm loving their product so far! Hmm I don't think it would be that messy if you apply if with a toothbrush but I def.would give it a try :)
@Rainy: Me too my fav. flavor is mint chocolate! Esp. ice cream!! Hmm :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review.. i've been eying on this product for a while and trying to find someone to do a review on it. I will def. go buy this after reading your review. thanks again!
ReplyDeleteps. i like minty chocolate flavor :) I was thinkin bout gettin the bubblegum one before.
Hmm, sounds good, but does it expire soon? The one thing I dislike about Lush is that everything expires too fast!
ReplyDeletehaha...my friend just got this yesterday, I love the smell!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great review! I've tried the bubblegum and it really smells and tastes like the real bubblegum! :D
ReplyDeletegreat reviews, thank you for these. I am testing out a lip balm at the moment. Is it best to use a lip scrub and them balm or can balms do the job just as well?
ReplyDeleteohhh i want to try this!! I have to wait til i go back to UK tho... because japan has hiked lush prices so much!! thanks for the review!
ReplyDeletehow interesting! too bad singapore doesn't have lush!
ReplyDeleteI love lip scrubs and usually end up doing them myself. But this would be great to give as a gift.
ReplyDelete@Miss Wiggle: Nop! It says it was made on march 25th 2010 and to use by may 25th 2011. More than a year! :D
ReplyDelete@Dina: Really? I thought it would taste just plain sweet. My the smell just repelled me away because it was so strong! =T
@Luc: If you have a lot of flaky skin, I would go with a scrub and then apply the lip balm. I find that lip balms only soften the dead skin but doesn't get rid of them :)
@Nic Nic: Whoa that sucks that they hiked to lush prices. =T But some bloggers recommended vaseline + sugar! It works too!
@Hell notes for beauty: Yup definitely! =)
I have this too! Reminds me, I need to do a review on it :) Sadly, it does not work that well for me :(
ReplyDeleteOm nom nom I think I would try to eat it :D
ReplyDeleteWow okay that is so cheap for a lip scrub! Does it tingle a bit (in a good way) by any chance?
