my elf lip scrub is hard to use and then it turned funky so i tossed it. and i'm confused which lip scrub to buy since i don't think i can use it again. i still don't know how to use it properly without previously scratching the surface. i thought i will grab something from the body shop since i'm having birthday this month so i can get it on sale, but unfortunately, they didn't have any at that moment. so i decided to turn to kbeauty world. but again, unfortunately not many brands that carried lip scrub. the most common one is etude's. so, here i am, trying etude kissful lip scrub.
this is the description from their website: this lip scrub makes lip soft and moist with its fine grains of sugar smoothing away dead skin. direction to use: after applying and massaging gently on moist lips, wash away with lukewarm water.

the scent: this one smells like peach. but someone said it doesn't taste like peach. i guess they have to fix this. if you make something that smells delicious to lick, probably you'll have to make it delicious to lick in reality.
the product: it's a clear lipgloss-alike with a grain inside. i can't see the grain but i can feel it on my lips. it's easier to rub around unlike elf one. some said that she felt burning sensation when she applied it, but i don't feel it. perhaps it's different sensitivity that cause the burning sensation. and it's easier to clean too.
the result: i must say i like this one better since it's in liquid form, it's easier to spread on my lips and rub around. and it does help sloughing off dead skin off my lips. although i don't have that flaky lips to start with, but it does the work.
i guess i will stick with this one for awhile.. after all, with those matte lipstick trends still going strong.. a lip scrub is a must in my stash. if you want a cheaper and easier alternative from the famous elf lip scrub, then i suggest you try this one. but don't lick it. it doesn't taste like peach. although it's not that disgusting since you don't swallow it.
