Natural DIY Lipstick for kissable healthy lips

We recently had a fun and casual H.E.R Show session called High Tea with Renee with our Founder and Managing Director Renee Tan, our guest speakers, Co-Founder of Living Essentially, Fabian Tan, Professional makeup artist & educator, Joyce Yeo and Founder of Coffeezone Sdn Bhd, Caroline Fong sharing their knowledge and tricks on how to create a healthy and natural lipstick of your own, some back to work fuzz-free make up tips and how to make the ever popular Dalgona Coffee.

Key takeaways or areas from Fabian Tan on how to create a healthy and natural lipstick of your own are as follows:

Facts:

  • Commercial lipsticks contain a lot of heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, chromium, aluminium and many others.
  • 1/3 of our commercial lipstick contains more lead than certain candy products.
  • When ladies put on lipsticks, many of them can take up to at least 10 lipsticks in their life.
  • Among the many problems faced by people includes chapped lips and cold sores on their lips, and thus when one applies a commercial lipstick, it will therefore make the symptoms worse.
  • Only with natural lipsticks and essential oil will it nourish the lips and yourself, regardless with the said symptoms above.

Items to prepare:

  • Weighing scale
  • Beaker
  • 3 stirrers

Step 1:

Pick a color from the Natural Mineral Color and mix it together with the sweet almond oil in a beaker on top of a weighing scale. (Recommended dosage of colors: 0.5grams, sweet almond oil 3.3 grams. However, if one wants it to be thicker you can add in more colors.)

Test the colors to see if it is the shade or mix of color that you want.

 

Step 3:

Put in the beeswax (1.1 grams) into the mixture.

 

Step 4:

Put in the shea butter (0.4 grams) into the mixture and continue to stir.

 

Step 5:

Cut a Vitamin E soft gells capsule into half and put it into the mixture. 

 

Step 6:

Put in the beaker with the mix ingredients into a boiling water (The water level should only be enough the cover the bottom part of the beaker) and continue to stir for 5 minutes.

 

Step 7:

Put in the essential oils, 1 drop for each scent and continue to stir again until everything becomes fully liquid.

(Note: Do this quickly before the liquid from the beaker hardens.)

 

Step 8:

Pour in the liquid into lipstick mould.
(Note: Place the non-flat side ring on top to close the lipstick case)

 

Step 9:

Place your lipstick in a fridge for half an hour or in a room temperature for one and a half hours.

 

Step 10:

Scrape the top of the of the ring making sure that the surface is flat. Slowly remove the case to retrieve your newly created natural lipstick.
