I had wanted this product for a while before I bought it, & if you ask me; I never bought it purely for the reason that I have previously tried lip scrubs, & all it seems is you are paying pounds for a little pot of castor sugar! However, this is a Lush Cosmetics product, & I do love a good treat from Lush every now & then, so I decided to purchase it. In my opinion, a retail price of £5.25 could be seen as rather steep for a tiny pot of sugar, jojoba oil and bubblegum flavouring all concocted together; but I've never tasted a cosmetic as perfectly sweet and delicious as this one!
I have previously tried the Lush Mint Julips scrub in which I found was far too harsh on my lips due to the mint flavouring giving me a burning sensation which was not pleasant. However, the connotations of bubblegum really do match up to what they are supposed to in this product; it it sweet, soothing and leaves your lips tasting absolutely fabulous. It also smells delicious and I love the fluorescent colour of the product. Not only does it do exactly what it says on the tin; "This sugary perfectly pink polisher keeps lips in tip top condition and tasting of candy floss" - CORRECT; but it is something more effective and unique in comparison to your average Lip Salve or Vaseline.
After using the product a couple of times all nasty winter-nipped dry skin had vanished from my lips and I could taste the sweet candy floss/bubblegum flavour on my lips for ages after I had used it. Not often i would spend a fiver on something so simple for my lips; but I am very glad that I did!
