What the gurus are saying

The sugar granules are exceptionally fine and work quickly to heal dry, cracked lips, one reviewer saw crusties gone in a day and split lips healed within four days. However, physical scrubs carry a real risk of tiny tears that can leave lips drier, and some people are sensitive to that effect; those with fragile or reactive lips may want to test it cautiously or stick to gentler methods instead.

"I'm shocked at how fine-grained this sugar is. It's literally a fraction of what I was paying for the Bite Beauty one, it tastes better than the Bite Beauty one, it makes me look better than the Bite Beauty one. The granules are much finer than those big chunky ones. It smells like Hubba Bubba watermelon Bubble Gum as opposed to like watermelon cough syrup. The exfoliation is helping heal my lips in a way. It literally took one day to get rid of the crusties and then about four days to get rid of all the split lip. It's a really fine grain, it smells good, it looks good. I really really love this. I actually really like this. Saint Ives created a type of scrub that I like that I can endorse and those are words I never thought I would say. I'm gonna purchase it again especially because my Bite Beauty one is just so expensive. I'm really really happy that I ended up buying this and I'm gonna do it again."

"St. Ives is just never backing down, and I think it gets a lot of unnecessary hate online. The micro tear thing really is just little tiny tears that lead to more dryness perhaps, but some people don't have any issue with it. It can be irritating, and people hate on it, but they're not going anywhere, they have a loyal following. Now they have a Juicy Watermelon Lip Scrub."
