DIY Beautiful Lip Gloss

I have been making my own tinted lip gloss for a little over a year now and must say, I love it. It is so incredibly easy, and you will cringe at all the money you have wasted buying gloss at the store.

Materials:

Petroleum Jelly (Vaseline)
Cocoa powder or Dig out old lipstick that is too low to use  (cocoa for brown and natural tints)
Package of small paint containers like this:


Instructions:

Take the petroleum jelly and put in a microwave safe bowl (I use a glass condiment bowl)
Put the bowl containing the petroleum jelly into the microwave and heat in 30 second intervals and stir after each heating (always use caution when heating items in the microwave, refer to use and care instructions provided to you by your manufacturer or can be found online through your manufacturer's website)
Once you have achieved total liquidation of the jelly, carefully remove from the microwave with hot pads to protect your hands from burning.
Add small amounts of your cocoa/lipstick while stirring until you achieve the color intensity you prefer
While still in liquid form, pour into clean/sterile containers and allow to cool then top.

To give your gloss a more healing property, feel free to add Aloe to the mixture (straight from plant or store bought)

Enjoy!
