Ingredients Needed

Choose high-quality ingredients to boost the effectiveness and safety of your DIY beauty products.

  • Soft Shea Butter: It is a moisturizing and nourishing ingredient derived from the nuts of the shea tree. It is rich in fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants, making it effective in hydrating and protecting the lips. Soft shea butter helps improve lip texture, soothes irritation, and promotes healing. Its versatility makes it a popular choice for DIY lip care products, providing natural moisture and conditioning benefits.

Tools Needed

  • Scale to weigh quantities
  • Stainless steel bowl
  • Teaspoons
  • Small containers to store the lipstick and lip moisturizer

Prior to use, ensure that both your utensils and containers are properly cleaned and disinfected. Wash them with warm soapy water, dry with a tissue, and then sanitize by spraying with 70% medical alcohol. Wipe them clean and let them air dry before use.

Steps: DIY Lipstick and Lip Moisturizer

1- Start by putting 50 grams (1.76 oz) of soft shea butter into a bowl.

2- Add 3 grams (0.10 oz) of mica color powder. Here I am using the red color. By adding that much mica color powder, you obtain a lipstick in addition to the lip moisturizer. Feel free to use any mica color.

3- Now, we will melt the contents in a hot water bath (bain-marie). A bain-marie is done by placing the bowl in a larger pot of hot steaming water. This will gradually melt whatever is inside the bowl without causing it to burn. As the contents of the bowl melt, make sure to mix every now and then.
