1. Melt the oil, beeswax and butter together in a glass bowl.

2. If you are using wax crayons melt this into the mixture as well to add colour to your gloss. Or stir in your mica powder to gain the same effect. The more you add the deeper the colour so add little bits at a time until you get the look you are going for.

3. Stir in two drops of your chosen essential oil to add a taste to your gloss.

4. Pour mixture into clean container and allow to cool.

You can use any clean container you want, so you have options to get as cute and creative as you’d like. You can even create custom labels to show off your homemade makeup skills.
