Ingredients:

  • 1 teaspoon beeswax – acts as a natural base and gives the lipstick its solid texture.
  • 1 teaspoon shea butter or cocoa butter – deeply moisturizes and softens the lips.
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil or almond oil – adds smoothness and shine.
  • 1/2 teaspoon beetroot powder or 1 teaspoon concentrated beet juice – provides a natural red tint.

Instructions:

  1. In a heat-safe bowl, combine the beeswax, shea butter, and coconut oil.
  2. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (a double boiler) and stir until everything is completely melted.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the beetroot powder or beet juice until the color is well blended.
  4. Add a drop of essential oil if desired and mix well.
  5. Pour the mixture into a small clean container or lipstick mold and let it cool at room temperature until solid.
