Good Luck ~I need a good homemade lip gloss recipe?
the simplest way is to take a SMALL BIT of any color lipstick, mash it up and mix it with petroleum jelly =]
Chocolate Lip Gloss





3 tablespoons cocoa butter


4 or 5 chocolate chips


1 capsule vitamin E





Melt all ingredients in a double boiler, and then blend with a spoon until the mixture is very smooth. Put into a container and refrigerate until solid.





Cranberry Lip Gloss





1 tablespoon almond oil


10 fresh cranberries


1 teaspoon honey


1 teaspoon petroleum jelly (optional - for more shine)





Mix all the ingredients and then place them in a microwave or heat-resistant container. Heat in the microwave or a water bath until the mixture just begins to boil (1-2 minutes in the microwave). Stir well and gently mash the berries. Let the mixture stand for at least 5 minutes.


Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove all pieces of cranberry. Stir and allow to cool completely. When cool, spoon into a clean container.





To use: Spread a small amount onto your lips.





Vanilla Lip Gloss





1 tablespoon grated beeswax


1 tablespoon coconut oil


1/8 teaspoon vitamin E oil


1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract





Place the beeswax, coconut oil and vitamin E oil in an ovenproof container. Heat gently until the wax and oils are melted. Stir in the vanilla extract and mix well. Pour the mixture into a clean container and allow to cool completely before using.





This is a fun and easy recipe!! Who would have known that Kool-Aid makes great lip-gloss?





Lip Gloss


2 tablespoons solid shortening (Crisco),


1 tablespoon Kool-Aid drink mix of your choice (powdered, with sugar already added)








Basic Lip Gloss Formula


1/4 cup vegetable or nut oil


1/4 ounce beeswax


1 teaspoon honey or glycerine (humectants)


1/2 to 1 teaspoon Essential Oil.





Heat the oil and beeswax in a double boiler (or microvave) until the beeswax is melted.


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


Add the honey or glycerine and approx 5 drops flavoring oil; whip some more.


Add more flavoring if desired.


Store in small glass jars, small tupperware bowls, decorative tins or film containers.


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 beet juice for a beautiful %26amp; 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. Don't use food coloring, it may contain alcohol base.





Never use extracts found in cooking sections of the grocery stores as they contain alcohol. Use safe essential oils. The good part about them is they have thousands of great flavors. Comfrey, Rosemary, Tea Tree or Camphor Oils are excellent for healing effects.





How do you know if it's time to throw away your gloss? If it changes color, odor, or texture, though, throw it away.
