ChapStick is well-known for its range of lip care products, especially its Classic Original and Classic Cherry balms—but now the brand is venturing into new territory by offering its first-ever hydrating lip scrub.
The 'Total Hydration Conditioning Lip Scrub' is a gentle exfoliant that's made with naturally sourced ingredients such as sugar crystals, coconut oil, shea butter, Vitamin E and for a refreshing flavor, peppermint. These potent natural ingredients work together to slough away dry skin and condition lips to leave them feeling soft and smooth. ChapStick is introducing its newest product to consumers as "#skincareforlips." After using the hydrating lip scrub, the brand suggests applying a ChapStick balm such as its 'Total Hydration 3 in 1 Cooling Peppermint.'
The $5 lip exfoliant comes in an elegant black and white pot that reminds one of premium cosmetics that are available only at a much higher cost.
