Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Beeswax pellets
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Sweet almond oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Vitamin E oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Mica powder (optional, for shimmer)
Directions
Step 1
In a double boiler or a heat-safe bowl placed over a pot of simmering water, combine the beeswax pellets, coconut oil, and sweet almond oil.
Step 2
Heat the mixture gently, stirring occasionally, until the beeswax is fully melted and the ingredients are well combined.
Step 3
Remove the bowl from the heat and quickly stir in the vitamin E oil and vanilla extract. If you’d like a shimmery gloss, add mica powder at this stage and mix thoroughly.
Step 4
Carefully pour the mixture into small lip gloss containers or tubes. Use a small funnel or dropper to make this step easier.
Step 5
Let the lip gloss cool and solidify completely for about 1 hour at room temperature.
Step 6
Once set, secure the lids on your containers. Store in a cool, dry place and use within 6 months.
