DIY Lip Balm | 100% Natural Ingredients

[@simplyshama]

I DIY everythingg. My deodorant, leave-in conditioner, make-up remover, moisturiser. Apart from my makeup, there is not one thing I put on my skin that isn't all natural. It's so much cheaper plus there's soo many benefits!

[@AjaDang]

simply.s i agree!

[@blackistanigurrl]

simply.s I am curious to DIY beauty products now...never really thought about it until this video. it is so much better for you im sure! hopefully theres more videos soon

[@mette1983]

simply.s Wow that´s so cool. How do you make your leave-in conditioner? I would love to know:-) Take care!

[@leondost3575]

there are two benefits: 1: it's cheaper 2: there are many benefits

All natural face wash: powdered oatmeal. Pulse oatmeal in a blender (Ninja, Vitamix, etc.) until oatmeal becomes a powder. Store in a cool dry place. When ready to use, just put a little in your hand, add water and massage into face. It's soooo incredible soothing. Will not remove makeup, but is a good morning face wash.

[@AjaDang]

nyly e wow that's sounds great!

good idea, i bet a bit of baking soda would go very good together with that oatmeal powder

[@rosemary.-6576]

I just made my own. Good tip instead of using a good glass bowl for the double boiling, reuse a glass simmer sauce jar like an empty pasta jar all cleaned out since it'll be thrown in the trash anyway. Great vid. :)

This is a fantastic lip balm. I made it with my kids who gave little pots to all their friends as presents. Everyone was very happy. Thank you so much for the video.

[@nicolebaladad7636]

I've tried a lot of diy lip balms and this one is my favorite. I skipped the essential oils. Its really easy and does the best at keeping my very very sensitive lips moisturized! Thanks so much!

[@Selinnaguz]

Does it have to be edible beeswax or can I get any beeswax off Amazon or eBay? Pls reply

[@nicolebaladad7636]

BOB BOB I buy mine off of Etsy but I’m sure off amazon is fine

[@Selinnaguz]

@@nicolebaladad7636 thank you so much

[@dandaluna]

I love this balm recipe, it's my favorite. I do add Vitamin E oil, to help preserve it and because it is also very good for the lips. I do the same recipe, jyst adding more beeswax to make hand balm, I like it a bit harder for the hands. I advise everyone to try it, I've used Carmex, Burt's Bees, etc. and made the test... this recipe wins against all of them, however I personally like to use Burt's every few days so that your skin doesn't get used to the balm so much that it stops having the the same power (I do this with my skincare too, never use anything more than 3/5 days, always take a break and use something really needed or the wonderful rosehip oil).

[@missb6371]

Hi :) How much more beeswax do you ad for the hand balm?

[@dandaluna]

@@missb6371 Hello, I usually double it up, because for a hand balm I prefer them harder, but you can always try doing a really small portion just to experiment and see how you like it. Hope it works.

I love this and put it in little chapstick containers. My husband says its too hard (not as soft and easy to put on as store bought lip balm) to put on his lips..i agree its a little hard but I still love the way it makes my lips feel. My question: did I do something to make it too hard? Is yours soft in the container? Thanks!

[@aletheavicente3913]

and after taking it out of the fridge, will it melt? or it should always be stored in the fridge? thanks. wanna try this out and give as a present.

[@AjaDang]

it's been good at room temperature. But no harm in leaving it in the fridge either

[@theycallmekurn]

what would you substitute for the almond oil for allergies? avocado, grapeseed maybe? this was awesome

[@connie2802]

I’m so encouraged by how simply your DIY is and that’s it’s all natural! I’ve been checking into getting some beeswax pellets(online) but am a little concerned with a few complaints regarding how bad the smell is, even though some have added essential oil. Is this something that would dissipate over time, is there a way to get rid of the bad odour?

[@robson-jt2kg]

What an ANGEL !!!

[@zarahofshiloh7537]

If anyone is interested, there is the beeswax beads that are easier to melt and you get to skip the grading.

Can we use rose water instead of rose oil? And can we make it without using almond oil?

[@AjaDang]

+Powerpuff Afaa rose water and rose oil are very different. The rose oil is only for the scent so you can use whatever scent you like. You don't have to use the almond oil - I just like the properties on it.

[@Vivi-ys9oq]

Can I microwave the beeswax, almond oil, and coconut oil or do I have to put it over a double boiler? Is there a benefit to using a double boiler?

[@mrtheory9330]

Yes,if you put it in the microwave it will break down the Important oils that moisturise the lips 🙂

[@k8lynmae]

Vivi 247 NO As it destroys and changes the structure and benefited of the oils and any food you microwave. Microwaves are super dangerous for health for many reasons

[@wem-c9f]

Hi lovely, can i ask how long does this balm stay moisturising on the lips? Some balms give a quick moisturising effect but 'evaporates' so quick and loses effect very quickly. Also, will it be possible to add in some shea butter if I want to?

[@Rdymond19091]

Love this tutorial!!! Thank you so much. One quick query - mine's come out quite solid, so takes a bit of finger heat to get it out! Is there one of the ingredients I should use a touch more of to make is less solid? Thanks!

Was I wrong that I add extra stuff to it?? PLEASE REPLY ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!

I never put it in the fridge and always take it with me. It is the only balm that keeps my lips moisturized for hours without reapplying it. You can use every oil that you prefer. I use 1 tbsp Shea butter and 1 tbsp castor oil or grapeseed oil and sometimes add a few Drops of Vitamin E oil.

[@AjaDang]

+Kiana Archer no I haven't, this is my first time hearing about lanolin. What is it?

[@niikolful]

+Aja Dang It's a moisturizer often found in beauty items. The texture is similar to Vaseline.

[@zoezzzarko1117]

It is from sheep's sebaceous glands. It is excellent for dry skin, skin rashes and nursing mothers when trying to heal sore/cracked nipples. It is quite viscous on its own. Would be great to add in place of the almond oil. Although I would patch test first, to test for any sensitivity/allergies before adding to the recipe.
