Anese Hold My Drink Coconut Lip Scrub
$22, anese.co
Ever wonder why your lipstick begins to look flaky halfway through the night? Although you may apply lip balm religiously when your lips aren’t coated in color, without a little buffing action, flakes are pretty much inevitable. The same way your face needs to be exfoliated to buff away built-up dead skin cells, so do your lips. That’s where this killer 100% natural coconut and sugar cane scrub comes in. Simply rub it on your lips for gentle exfoliation that will leave your lips smoother than ever. Before you know it you’ll have your most perfect canvas for over-lined lips yet. And living in the land of Kylie, that’s pretty much the ultimate makeup goal.
