Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: Dr. PAWPAW Scrub & Nourish

Fact: lips’ worst enemy is central heating. Winds come a pretty close second, but won’t it be interesting to see how lips fare this autumn, now that we’re all set to layer on vests, socks and jumpers, rather than turn up the thermostat? (Better for the planet, of course, too – but nobody wants to shiver, and we’re as rattled by the energy crisis as anyone out there.)

A little bit of good news is that we have the perfect – and pretty affordable – product, for when that moment comes, and our lips go Sahara-dry. It’s a dual-ended stacked pot, from Dr. PAWPAW, who (among other all-natural ingredients) harness skin-smoothing enzymes from the papaya plant, in their skincare and lipcare.

One end: a sugary scrub, to massage gently into lips and smooth away any flakes of dead skin. Other end: a fab, bouncy-textured sheer lip balm, which feels instantly and deliciously comforting. (It’s fab under lipstick, too, we’re finding, for a slightly more sheer effect.)

Of course, you don’t have to wait till the central heating goes on, to enjoy what we think will be your lips’ new best friend.
