Recipe

This recipe to make your own lip gloss is only 4 steps!

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.
