Sugar Cookie Lip Balm
Perfect for a gift -- or even better, a party craft to do with friends!
The sky is the limit with these little lip balm treasures! Here's the perfect starter recipe - and from here, you can truly create a lip balm that is unique to YOU!
Thank you, AMAZON. Seriously. What would we do without you?!
Here's what you need...
- Small containers for lip balm - I just fell in LOVE with these macaron containers I found on Amazon. Here's the LINK.... :)
- 1 TBS Coconut Oil
- 1 TBS Beeswax (I used 100% all natural - White)
- Approximately 1 tsp Vanilla
- Sprinkles
- OPTIONAL: A small amount of lipstick for added tint
It's NOT going to get any easier than this!!!!!
Here's how you do it...
Using a microwave-safe measuring cup (with a pourable spout), add beeswax, coconut oil, vanilla and lipstick. Checking VERY frequently, microwave for approximately one minute. Stir so all ingredients are incorporated. Set aside for just a minute. In the meantime, add sprinkles to bottom of the lip balm container. Then pour warm wax mixture into the container. Do NOT OVER-FILL! Allow to cool for a few seconds and top the lip balm with a few more sprinkles. NOTE: If the sprinkles sink, wait another 30 seconds or so and try again! The sprinkles should incorporate nicely onto the surface of the lip balm. Gently twist on the top of the container, and store in the refrigerator for about an hour until it is set! THAT'S IT!!!! You literally JUST MADE YOUR OWN LIP BALM. (I'm just a TAD EXCITED.)
Loving the various shades of pink -- Great idea for those old tubes of lipsticks you were thinking of throwing away!
