Skin-Nomad's Take — At a Glance

• Sugar lip scrub that buffs away flakes
• Fine sugar with shea, agave and nourishing oils
• Tropical pineapple flavour

Flaky lips that will not hold colour need a gentle buff first. The NCLA Beauty Sugar Sugar Lip Scrub uses fine sugar to lift away dead skin while nourishing oils and butters condition, brightened by Vitamins C and E, in a tropical pineapple flavour. It comes from NCLA Beauty, a Los Angeles brand.

Key Benefits

• Buffs away flakes: Fine sugar gently exfoliates dead, flaky skin to leave lips smooth.
• Conditions as it exfoliates: Shea, agave and nourishing oils mean lips are softened rather than left raw or dry.
• Brightens and preps: Vitamins C and E help brighten while smoother lips hold balm and lipstick far more evenly.

Ideal For

• Skin types: All skin types, including those with dry, flaky lips.
• Skin concerns: Flaky, chapped lips and uneven lip texture before colour.

FAQ

Q: How often should I use it, and is it harsh?
A: It is gentle enough for once or twice a week. The fine sugar polishes rather than scratches and the nourishing base conditions as you go, so it smooths without leaving lips sore.

Q: How do I use it before lip colour?
A: Buff a little over the lips, wipe or rinse away, then follow with a balm. That gives lipstick and tints a smooth, even surface to sit on.

It is the quiet first step that makes every lip product you own look better, by giving them smooth lips to sit on.
