How to Make Vaseline Lip Gloss

Cold, dry weather, sun exposure, wind, habitual licking, and even indoor heating and air conditioning, are some of the most common causes for dry lips. Dry lips can look like having cracks and peels, sensitivity, redness, pain, and discomfort. Being exposed to the elements is part of our everyday lives, and the best treatments to dry lips are Vaseline lip glosses.

Vaseline lip glosses heal your lips, while also giving them a gorgeous glamorous touch. Using Vaseline lip gloss everyday can be very beneficial to your skin, protecting your lips from cracking and dryness. Below we have some tips to make your own Vaseline lip gloss in case you are wanting to use it every day without the cost of purchasing.
Vaseline lip gloss is most commonly made with oils, waxes, pigments and flavorings and of course, Vaseline. The first step is to research the ingredients you will want to use in your own lip gloss formula. We recommend looking at quite a few labels of your favorite lip glosses for inspiration. It is worth it to take the time to research each and every ingredient, so you can pick and choose which ones will have the best benefits for your lips when creating your own formula.

After you’ve decided which ingredients you want to use in your formula, you will need to separate them into different categories of oils, waxes, pigments, and flavorings. First, you will mix in the oils and the vaseline. Next to be mixed in is the pigment, which gives the lip gloss its color, and the flavoring, which gives the gloss its smell. The last thing to be mixed in are the waxes. 

One of the best things about making your own formula is that you get to decide how much or how little to mix to get the right consistency, color, and smell for you. The possibilities are endless to make with your formula, and the real results will lie within the ingredients that you choose to use. The power of Vaseline on your lips is very intense, so it is definitely a great and fun craft to learn.
