Here’s a lip gloss recipe with ingredients you can find at your local store!

A few tips:
Try to use disposable items (like craft sticks and paper bowls) to make clean up easier.
When cleaning out your mixer use lots of dish liquid soap (Dawn works well)
While it doesn’t look like it on the ingredients list – this recipe makes a lot (especially when you are putting it into little containers) so remember a little goes a long way.
I used the 1 inch containers with lids from The container Store.
These are so cute given in a gold draw string bag.

What is petal dust ?
I’ts very fine glitter like substance that is edible. You can find it in the cake decorating section of a hobby store.
Thank you! How much?
This is a great website – so many new things to try. Making fleece hats now for homeless shelter and the local Pregnancy Resource Center. Thank you so much.
can this be used in a lip balm tube?
Nope, it’s not waxy enough
