So cool!!

[@aaangiii]

Hello! Which one of your matte liquid lipstick bases would you recommend for a non-drying liquid lip? I was thinking about getting the no. 2, but I was wondering if this one was better.

[@natashagreen-chillaxedprod7769]

You could add zinc to make it sun protected to.

[@simmingmylifeawaycurrently1049]

can we use oxides or pure pigments if we dont want a shimmery lipstick? Does the mica have a huge effect on how matte it is?

[@tiffaney135]

Hello, do I need to add any oils like sweet Almond oil or Coconut oil to make a liquid matte lipstick?

[@natashagreen-chillaxedprod7769]

For those that are wanting to know the ingredients for the Lipstick Base Used here they are: Plus iv added why they are used, so maybe you could find another product that does the same thing. Isododecane: Enhances the spreadability Disteardimonium Hectorite: This ingredient is used as a thickening agent Polymethylsilsesquioxane: It’s used as a film that creates a lubrication Trimethylsiloxysilicate: Forms a protective barrier on the skin that slows down water loss, keeping skin hydrated Tapioca Starch: Serves to stabilize emulsions Synthetic Wax: Helps keep emulsions from separating into their oil and liquid components (Beeswax Or Carnauba Wax can be used if preferred) Silica: Serves as a an abrasive, anticaking agent Propylene Carbonate Octyldodecanol: Used As a solvent, it also helps to dissolve or suspend other ingredients in a formulation without chemically altering the other ingredients (can also be found in some adhesives + paint stripper Kaolin Clay: Helps prevent skin from drying out. Titanium Dioxide: Used as a Pigment / Colour Lightener Trihydroxystearin: Improves stability when used in the oil phase of emulsions. Everyone is Welcome 😊 Ps. I Got most of the “Ingredient uses” from the #MakingCosmetics website www.makingcosmetics.com Everything is well priced but I just wish it wasn’t so expensive to ship to Australia 🇦🇺

[@perempuankejam]

thank you for sharing this..i am in the making to produce my own lipmatte..your information is realy helpful

[@carmellegracegalero7143]

Natasha Chillaxing Melts, Candles & Body Products Hi! What will I add to make my matte lipstick long-lasting? The one that I made can be easily erased just by licking your lips.

[@johnsttarmua6028]

Also isododecane makes the lipstick matte

[@dezidez4213]

Thank you!

[@laceylee270]

Im having issues filling my wand tubes with this liquid lipstick base. Any tips? Thanks!

[@BarbieCoral1]

Can I do it with synthetic mica pigments to create duochrome and multicrome colors?

[@kianalynn]

The swatch was a little sheer, what can be done to make it more pigmented ?

[@florestista9339]

Awesomeness

[@sasha_agy47]

what ingredient is included for it is durable and not sticky in the cup

[@Makingcosmetics]

Yes, you can add iron oxides instead, but D&C colors are easier to work with. Iron oxides need to be wetted (crushed in oil using a mortar and pestle) to reduce the particle size.

[@SynderellaSays]

Will this work with just the base and pigments??

How You Make It So That It Does Not Flake Off

[@pocahontasseguinart7099]

Is this nontoxic no animal testing and natural

[@RavenGibson]

could you post a foundation tutorial

[@ijenwaonweani598]

How can I get your ingredients?I want to start up my own matte lipgloss business.

[@ChannelThanuri]

Please do a video how to make beetroot lipbalm?

[@Makingcosmetics]

Micas are generally not used as primary pigments in lipstick products since their coloring capability is rather weak. We recommend to use liquid D&C colors (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Liquid-Colors_c_36.html) as primary coloring agents in lipstick products since they provide an intense coloring effect and are easy to formulate with since they are already pre-dispersed. Micas are only added to add some shimmer.

[@khanhngoctonnu1005]

how to buy these ingredients?

[@courtneywilliams3331]

Can I just Micas and not the Liquid lip color??

[@Drseethalrnair]

Wow it's Awsome

[@araffersigera278]

Hello do you offer product formulation classes

[@Makingcosmetics]

Yes, you can heat it up to about 60oC

[@jackiepedraza626]

CAN I USE OTHER DRY PIGMENTS ??

[@noooryelkholy1473]

Do you only need Base lipstick The group is complete؟؟؟؟!

[@imanfatima4185]

what is lipstick base

[@littlebeebs1]

Can you tell me the exact liquid and dry colors included in this kit ? I want to make an orange based red lipstick with a touch of brown . I’d prefer it to be a silky matte formula that’s more moisturizing, but still stays on well . Is that possible ? Trying to decide whether to buy the kit , or just the base and Red , orange and brown dyes or pigments . Don’t really need any mica . Thank you . Love your voice and accent . So relaxing to hear you talk 😊

[@Makingcosmetics]

The kit contains Red D&C No. 6 Lake Liquid, Red D&C No. 7 Lake Liquid, Red D&C No. 40 Powder, Blue FD&C No. 1 Powder, Yellow FD&C No. 5 Powder, Iron Oxide Brown Liquid, and 7 different micas.

HOW DO I MAKE IT LIQUID ?

[@Brunch.at.Midnight]

What can I add to make it more of a satin matte?

[@thebrowncollectionhtx]

The matte base 2 it says in the description.

[@Makingcosmetics]

We have never tried that. But I guess it will leave the coffee grinder totally messy and pigmented....

[@JaniyahAmoni]

MakingCosmetics do u have to use red or can u use any color

[@emunahbluisrael]

Can this base be mixed with powder dc lake colors? And can it also be mixed with scented oils? If so does this effect it being kids proof?

[@Makingcosmetics]

Using also dry colors e.g. D&C red 6, 7, 40 (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Dry-Colors_c_35.html) is only recommended if a more intense, vibrant color is needed. When using dry colors make sure they are mixed into the base very thoroughly for a uniform color! Also, the base will then most likely not be totally smudge proof as we have not come across a product that is just that.

[@Makingcosmetics]

No, you don't need any oils. When using our lipstick base you only need to add pigments (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Liquid-Colors_c_36.html)

[@stellak8730]

How come the links don't work?

[@izabellasozal7199]

I have bought the no 2 matte liquid lipstick, I have followed these steps but it hasn’t dried matte? Any recommendations would be great

[@candyboociara]

It says on the site that the no.2 doesn't really dry down matte, it dries to a more satin finish. You have to get the no.1 for the full matte finish. Can you tell me how the base texture feels? Is it creamy and smooth ? I wanna purchase

[@sadafsaleem87]

hi thanks for this wonderful video. can it be ok without any preservative?? i am making lipsticks. but after some days they smells like some old oil. what should i do now.. i did not add any antioxidant.. my base was vees wax, candilila wax, carnauba wax, plus oils like castor oil, almond oil, avocado oil, coconut oil. base was perfect. then i mix colors and micas in base and melt .then pour in container to het harden. all goes well.but after some days they smell like some rancid oil

[@fattumsyed820]

Add B H T _ butylated hydroxy toluene

[@Makingcosmetics]

You'd have to add a strong antioxidant like vitamin E (www.makingcosmetics.com/Vitamin-E-dl-alpha-tocopherol_p_325.html) to avoid the oils become rancid.

[@sadafsaleem87]

@@Makingcosmetics thank you for reply

[@LJHines1991]

Will any of y’all base work on lipgloss ?

[@Makingcosmetics]

No, the base doesn't contain any preservatives. Cosmetic products that don't contain any water usually don't have a preservative. Bacteria and mold require water to grow.

[@TheThomasSquad]

Can you do a video on how to make the lips gloss for the tubes and a mascara?

[@ChristinaLake]

how do you make it more pigmented? looks very sheer

[@Makingcosmetics]

If a more intense, vibrant color is needed we recommend using also dry colors e.g. D&C red 6, 7, 40 (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Dry-Colors_c_35.html), for example, together with liquid pigment dispersion. The more you dilute the base with liquid dispersions the more it may affect the smudge resistance and vibrancy

[@sadafsaleem87]

i am making lipstick with iron oxide pigments but they got sticky after some days. rest all dye colors are ok. but oxide pigments got very sticky and thick in texture. is ot becasue i used too much quantity or any other issue where i am doing wrong

[@Makingcosmetics]

Ideally, D&C colors (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Dry-Colors_c_35.html) are used for making cosmetics rather than iron oxides.

[@AnfeerneeMunoz]

Can I add ingredients like flavor and anything like cocoa butter to moisturize lips ?

[@Makingcosmetics]

You can add flavors but if you add butters and oils the consistency and viscosity of the base will change.

[@natashagreen-chillaxedprod7769]

Anfeernee Munoz you can melt cocoa butter and add it, just add it to the butters phase

[@Makingcosmetics]

Please contact us anytime through our website if you need help with your recipe.

[@rosemaryagyili5559]

Hello.I’m in Ghana how do I get your ingredients because they don’t ship to Ghana

[@derrickrose4414]

Hello

[@msbirthdaygirl16]

Do I have to use the mica colours or can I just use the base and dye?

[@Makingcosmetics]

We recommend to use liquid D&C colors (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Liquid-Colors_c_36.html) and only Micas (www.makingcosmetics.com/Micas_c_34.html) if you want to add glimmer.

[@Serenaibarraa]

Hello 👋 I got I question do you have to put oil in lipstick 💄????

[@Makingcosmetics]

Most lipsticks contain oils and waxes and no water.

[@kyvonnasmith7091]

So should I use oxides for more pigmentation??

[@Makingcosmetics]

For more intense colors we recommend to use dry D&C colors (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Dry-Colors_c_35.html)

[@archiepanolin4069]

Can I make this ingredients and steps on my small lipstick business? Is that okay?

[@Makingcosmetics]

[@dominiquefreeman602]

[@chrismichaelmua8185]

Dominique freeman I agree it takes forever to dry 😓

[@miryareviews]

maybe a little more isododecane?

[@JaniyahAmoni]

ChrisMichael Mua how long does it take

[@candyboociara]

Kaolin clay

[@raquelmahony9475]

Yes agree takes forever to dry

[@joycedlc5478]

For the color can i use food coloring?

[@Makingcosmetics]

We've never tried food colors. So, I can't tell. We use exclusively cosmetics colors (www.makingcosmetics.com/Colors-Color-Blends_c_31.html)

[@TeeaLovesYu]

Can I make my own product with the items to sell my own lipstick

[@Makingcosmetics]

Yes, you can. No problem.

[@missconceited3633]

[@angelynignacio1853]

[@Makingcosmetics]

You can buy them here: www.makingcosmetics.com/Colors-Color-Blends_c_31.html

[@wynishashante7214]

What’s the lipstick shelf life ?

[@Makingcosmetics]

18-24 months

[@ActressQueTerrell]

Can these be placed in a mold?

[@Makingcosmetics]

Yes, once melted you can pour it into a mold.

[@natashagreen-chillaxedprod7769]

What sort of mould were you thinking of?

[@AdorableBlackcat]

Wahhhhhh why don't you ship to australia

[@Makingcosmetics]

We do ship to Australia.

[@Eway0fliving]

To achieve a matte do you have to add a liquid colorant? Or can you just do a mica power? Iam asking so i can know before purchase 😊

[@Makingcosmetics]

Micas are generally not used as primary pigments in lipstick products since their coloring capability is rather weak. We recommend to use liquid D&C colors (www.makingcosmetics.com/Organic-Liquid-Colors_c_36.html) as primary coloring agents in lipstick products since they provide an intense coloring effect and are easy to formulate with since they are already pre-dispersed. Micas are only added to add some shimmer.

[@Eway0fliving]

MakingCosmetics i see theres 3 different liquid colorants, is there a color chart available or how to know what liquid to mix with the mica in order to make the desired color?

[@Makingcosmetics]

A color chart is available upon purchase of one of the lipstick bases.

[@Eway0fliving]

MakingCosmetics i purchased bases a few days ago didn't receive a chart

[@Makingcosmetics]

Please contact us via the contact us page on website and we will gladly send you a color chart.

[@imaweeb3460]

Is it vegan, gluten free and parabens free

[@Makingcosmetics]

Yes, all of that.

[@addictedtoyou643]

is the final product non drying?

[@Makingcosmetics]

The final product is not drying

[@addictedtoyou643]

Thank you. Btw, is it easily removable as well?

[@Makingcosmetics]

Yes, easily removable

[@Makingcosmetics]

It is very smudge proof, so you don't need to re-apply often. But can be taken off with an emollient based cleanser or a makeup dissolving product like we have a formulation for, on our website.

[@Makingcosmetics]

If the lips are exfoliated before applying it's not drying, however if you will feel it's a bit drying we suggest to apply a lip balm over the lip stick, once dry.

[@Makingcosmetics]

You can find the base here: www.makingcosmetics.com/Signature-Matte-Liquid-Lipstick-Base_p_1135.html

[@Serenaibarraa]

i used just liquid color and my liquid mattes are a bit sticky do i need a powder?

[@Makingcosmetics]

Powdered pigments are very strong and create very intense coloring. You'd have to use only a tiny little bit.

[@Serenaibarraa]

MakingCosmetics so do you think that’s why my mattes are coming out sticky?

[@Makingcosmetics]

You can buy all the ingredients at www.makingcosmetics.com

[@fashionista.talenista96]

Helo, I have a question. Do we have to use the Colorants from your company or can we substitute with another colorant brand. I have some of TKB Trading's Colorants. Will those work until I purchase the Colorants from your store later/soon?

[@mariposa6360]

Can I make these with my own logo and sell them??

[@Makingcosmetics]

Yes, absolutely.
