You've heard the saying- "put your money where your mouth is." At GloryBee we like to say, "Put your honey where your mouth is!" This easy do-it- yourself recipe will add volume and texture to your lips the all natural way. If you're looking to moisturize your lips with a shine that wows, this unique fruity lip gloss may quickly become your go-to look.
In a small saucepan over low heat or double boiler, warm oil, beeswax, and honey until the wax is just melted. Use 8 teaspoons of oil for a softer consistency; use 7 teaspoons for a firmer balm.
Remove from heat. Add the essential oil or flavoring and the colored lipstick (or Mica if desired), and stir until the lip-stick is melted.
Set the pan in a shallow ice-water bath. Using a whisk or spoon, stir rapidly for 30-60 seconds until the honey is completely incorporated and the formula is like thick frosting. It will be a pale yellow color unless you’ve added colorant.
Spoon the mixture into storage containers, and cap. Let the mixture set for 2 hours before use. No refrigeration is required, but for maximum freshness and taste, please use within 1 year.
