my lips and this did not have a lasting friendship [SEP] unfortunately i was not a fan of this one it did not do much to help my lips rather than exfoliate it actually just seemed to dry out my lips and not just a little bit it was not fun i tried it a few times as directed just apply a small pea sized amount to the lips using a finger tip scrub gently in a circular motion to remove the dead skin cells for about seconds then rinse or eat off remaining sugar all of that was done rinsed not eaten though the one thing that was good was that it did not taste half bad alas my poor lips were left in worse shape than ever dry and roughed up no matter how hard or gentle i used the stuff over a three week period i finally gave up and had to admit defeat perhaps others had better luck
