Homemade Lip Gloss


Question Posted Monday October 12 2009, 2:43 am

I was going to make some lip gloss using vaseline as my base, but i watched another video that said to use burts bees...and i don't want to use another person's product in mine cause i want to make sure that all the parts are natural. So I was going to get natural Irorn Oxides for my color and use some caster oil cause I heard that helps it stick to the lips and not run like vaseline...but what can I use as a solid base? Would i be able to use shea butter? Is there something else that is more accessable than shea butter? I heard that wax is the main reason why you should use burts bees...can i just get some sort of wax from the craft store or online and use that mixed with the caster oil? I was also thinking about using honey as a thickener? What has been your experience with this...thank you for the suggestions. Remember I would like my bases to be as pure as possible...like how vaseline is just petrolium jelly or shea butter is just right from the nut and there is no other stuff so i don't have to wonder what the company put in it. Thank you.
Thank you.

****I ALSO WANTED TO ADD... If I want to make something really wet like the lip smackers rolly's would I then use just something like casteroil as my base, that way it's not thick? Thank you..

I think the honey lipbalm sounds nice. Honey is a good moisturizer. If you could figure out coloring, that would probably be a good seller. Just an idea.
