Homemade lip gloss

February 2, 2014 By 8UpScrapin 1 Comment

Hello Scrappy Friends !!

It’s Crystal here and today I have a guest helper , my 8 yr old daughter Zoe . Zoe is a big YouTube girl and she found a tutorial on homemade lip gloss and wanted to try it herself ( with the help of mom ), so today is “Sunday Funday lets try it out “ at our house and we wanted to share with you what we made and how we did it.Have you ever saw a crayon and thought that would make a pretty lip gloss or lipstick , today we will show you how to do it .Crayons are non-toxic and have high pigments in them so the are the perfect base for the color.

Supplies you will need : Coconut oil , crayon in your favorite color , small containers , a pan and small glass bowl , water ,bamboo skew and tongs

we found a bag of 7 containers at 5Below  store for 3 dollars , we will use he other containers for other needs but today we are using the lip pots  , it came with 3

next you need to set up a double boiler system with a pan small amount of water and the small glass dish

we are using coconut oil  , this can be found at Walmart

pick your crayon color,we are using a pink and purple and white to make our lip colors , see where we broke the crayon this is about a 1/4 of the crayon , this is what you will need to make a small pot

get the pot of  water boiling with the empty bowl in it , add 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil and a 1/4 of a crayon and melt it , if you want more color add a tad more crayon
