Question

Could you provide a basic formula for a lip scrub using sugarcane scrub and moisturizing ingredients?

Answer

Basic Lip Scrub Formula

For a simple lip scrub formula, you can combine two main components: an exfoliant and a moisturizing base. This helps gently remove dead skin cells while nourishing the lips to keep them soft and moisturized.

Recommended Ingredients

  • Exfoliant: You can use Sugarcane Scrub (60-80 Mesh) or Sugarcane Scrub (80-100 Mesh). These are sugarcane powders with particle sizes suitable for gentle exfoliation, helping to accelerate skin cell turnover and make lips look smoother.
  • Moisturizing Base: Use ingredients that provide nourishment and act as a binder, such as:
    • Jojoba Oil (Golden - Deodorized): Jojoba oil has a structure similar to the skin's natural oils, providing good moisture without feeling greasy.
    • Shea Butter (Refined , Deodorised): Shea butter is a natural fat rich in fatty acids, effectively moisturizing the skin.
    • Glycerin (USP/Food Grade): Glycerin acts as a humectant, helping to retain moisture in the skin and prevent dry lips.

Basic Mixing Instructions

Generally, making a lip scrub involves mixing the exfoliant with the moisturizing base in appropriate proportions to achieve the desired texture. You can start by mixing a small amount of the exfoliant and gradually add the moisturizing base, stirring until you get a scrub texture that is neither too dry nor too liquid.

  • Steps:
    1. Measure the moisturizing base ingredients (e.g., Jojoba Oil or slightly melted Shea Butter).
    2. ค่อยๆ เติม Sugarcane Scrub ลงไป คนให้เข้ากัน
    3. If desired, add a small amount of Glycerin for extra moisture.
    4. คนส่วนผสมทั้งหมดให้เข้ากันดี

Important Notes:

  • The ratio of exfoliant to base depends on your preferred texture and desired exfoliation strength.
  • The lip scrub should be stored in a clean, airtight container.
  • As this is a simple formula without preservatives, it's best to make small batches and use them relatively quickly, or store in the refrigerator to extend shelf life.
