HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN LIP BALM AND LIP GLOSS

THE BASIC INGREDIENTS: 1/4 cup vegetable or nut oil 1/4 ounce beeswax 1 teaspoon honey or glycerin 1/2 to 1 teaspoon natural flavoring oil aka Essential Oil.

Grater Wax paper Ziploc bag

THE BASIC TOOLS:

THE BASIC METHOD:

1. Heat the oil and beeswax in a double boiler (or microwave) until the beeswax has melted.

2. Remove from heat and whip with an electric beater until creamy.

3. Add the honey or glycerin and approximately 5 drops of flavoring oil; whip some more.

Store in small containers such as recycled lip gloss/balm containers or other small makeup containers. 35mm film containers work quite well. Other places to look include stores that carry beads, crafts, or fishing tackle supplies.

OTHER TIPS AND TRICKS

If the fragrance and taste is weak, add a few more flavoring to make it stronger. Try different oils on your lips to choose the best one for your skin and taste

preference. If the Balm is too hard (waxy), add more oil to your mixture. If it is too soft, add more wax. You can add a few drops of beetroot juice for a beautiful & natural red color. But instead of going to that trouble, you can just shave off a little of your lip stick

for that beautiful (not natural) color.
