DIY Lip Jelly

So I never thought I would be making a lip product tutorial since I generally think those are redundant and stupid. People usually mix vaseline and kool aid to make a lip balm or mix vaseline with a lip gloss.

And that is exactly what I'm doing today, but the difference is that I'm going to be using a lipstick I don't really like and making it into a lip jelly, so I don't have to throw away the ugly lipstick. 

Supplies:
- Lip Stick ( you don't like)
- Container
- Vaseline
- Toothpick or Spatula

Optional:
- Maracuja Oil
- Candle and matches 
- Spoon or Tinfoil


So the lipstick I chose was Rimmel Kate No. 12 because the color is not ME at all.
It's a super bright carrot orange that I cannot bring myself to wear at all. But it is very pretty sheered out.

First thing you want to do is cut off a bit of the lipstick into the container.

Then, add the vaseline depending on how  pigmented   you want your lip jelly to be. Then mix.

Technically, you are now done, but I like to melt it down so it looks more "store-made". 

Now your going to want to light your candle and put the lip jelly onto a metal surface for melting.

Add a drop of maracuja oil for extra moisturization and this is how it looks

How it looks:



Over your natural lip color it's a very vibrant light peachy color. Hope you guys liked this DIY.
