What are the methods of hand-making lipstick?

Loving beauty is women's nature. Everyone must put on makeup when going out. Even if they don't wear makeup, they still need to apply lipstick. Lipstick plays a big role in daily life, but there are many types of lipsticks on the market now, and it is easy to buy the wrong one if you are not careful. Many people also worry that the additives in lipstick are unsafe, especially pregnant women during pregnancy. What they worry about most is the additives in lipstick. In fact, if everyone has time, they can also make handmade lipstick by themselves, which is simple and convenient, and safer to use.

Tools/Raw Materials

Beaker, glass rod, mold, grinding brush

Oil, beeswax, essential oil, vitamin E, lipstick powder

Methods/Steps

The first and most important step is disinfection. I use an ozone disinfection cabinet. If you don’t have one, you can directly use alcohol to disinfect. Make sure the alcohol evaporates completely.

Prepare the beaker and glass rod you will need. A very important tool for making lipstick is the mask brush, also called a grinding brush, which is used to make the lipstick powder dissolve well in the oil. Then use grease and beeswax!

Then mix it, making sure to grind it thoroughly so that the powder is fully dissolved, and then add the lipids and beeswax.

This step requires heating, heating in a water bath to fully melt the lipids and beeswax. If you want fragrance, you can add some flower wax, or a little essential oil. The essential oil should be added later.

For this step, if you have a mold, you can put it into the mold. If not, just use an ordinary lipstick tube and pour it directly. I used a mold and waited for a few minutes to solidify.

If you don't have a mold, just use a regular tube.

This is the last step, demolding, and the finished product is out. Before the fifth step above, wait for the oil to cool down a bit before adding vitamin E or something like that. The same goes for essential oils, and the finished product will be out after demolding.

ve oil essential oil shea butter natural beeswax lip balm tube

Beaker Stirring rod Pot

method

First, sterilize the lip balm tube and beaker by scalding them in boiling water.

Turn the hot lipstick tube upside down in a clean place to dry.

Pour the white shea butter and beeswax particles into a beaker and heat over water to melt them.

Stir until completely melted.

After melting, add base oil, sweet orange essential oil, and VE mixed formula oil and heat them together.

Stir until fully combined.

Stir well, then take out the beaker, wait for a while until the wall of the beaker cools down slightly before pouring it into the lipstick bottle.

Don't fill it all at once, as it will collapse a bit after cooling. Leave about the height of a fingernail.

Wait a moment until the lipstick is slightly frozen and then fill the can with the remaining height. The time interval between the two canning should not be too long, otherwise it will separate into layers. You can start canning when the outside looks frozen.

Finally, let it sit until the lipstick is fully formed.

You can use it after it is done.
