Spotlight | Bubi Bubi Lip Bubble Lip Scrub.

Several weeks ago, Althea had a special offer where you can get a free item with every purchase made at their website. One of the items that they were giving away for free was a lip scrub - the Bubi Bubi Lip, to be exact - and I added it to cart with Yue in mind.

Bubi Bubi Lip Bubble Lip Scrub.

You see, my son has perennially parched lips which needs to be exfoliated regularly and moisturized as needed so that they won't crack or chap. Thus, I'm always on the look out for good lip scrubs (and lip balms, too) and based on the feedback that I've read and heard about the Bubi Bubi Lip, this product seems to fit the bill.

 A bubble-type lip scrub, the Bubi Bubi Lip gently whisks away flaky dead skin and removes residue to reveal softer, smoother, healthy-looking lips.This microbead-free exfoliant is made with natural, fruit-based ingredients such as witch hazel and papaya extracts for easy exfoliation, peach extract to make your lips soft and smooth, and grapefruit extract to keep your lips moisturized and healthy-looking.

Unboxing the product.

The Bubi Bubi Lip comes in a handy 12 mL pump bottle. Although there's nothing much to the packaging - it's pink, it's made of plastic, it easily fits my makeup pouch - I find it cute, to be honest. Must be the gradient color and the eye-catching font.

The bottle is this big (small).

To use, simply pump a generous amount of product on your finger and apply it on your lips. The product has a creamy consistency with a subtle, fruity scent.

Wait for it to form bubbles and let it sit on your lips for at least five minutes. You'll feel a tingling sensation as the product starts to fizzle.

Once the bubbles have 'died down', gently rub your lips in circular motions before wiping or rinsing the product off. Be careful not to ingest the product - it tastes awfully bitter.

Here's how the Bubi Bubi Lip worked for Yue lips. I've also tried it for myself, but you'll see far more amazing results with my son's dry lips.

Behold, the bubbles!

Hello, soft, smooth, and healthy-looking lips! :)

Needless to say, this product really works! It does a great job of exfoliating the lips and making your kisser soft, smooth, and plump. The bubbles make it such a fun product to use, but do keep in mind that this product also contains CAPB (Cocoamidopropyl Betaine), a foam-boosting ingredient whose safety for use in skincare product has been the subject of debate among skin and beauty experts. Thankfully, neither Yue nor I had adverse reactions with this ingredient, but I suggest you do a patch test before using this product.
