Love the fact that the recipes are easy to do!
I’m going to use the exfoliating recipe this winter- my lips always get dried out!
Betty rocks! Thanks for this!
Not sure if I want to plump up my lips, but I def want them soft and healthy looking.
Good tips and the Sally Hansen products aren’t expensive. Thanks Betty!
I have never thought of using a scrub for lips, but it makes perfect sense.
i love the homemade scrub! i use sugar/olive oil & sugar/baby oil to make body scrubs. betty c has such great ideas.
I need to try this for my lips. They dry out and then crack.
I definitely need to try this. I’ve been wanting to try the Sally Hansen products for a while, it’s nice to see them endorsed by someone I trust. Thanks!
These are so easy to do…right now.
