Natural Lippies!



For every cosmetic bag,I can bet that we can find at least one lip gloss present. Glosses are a favorite as it can  instantly freshen up your face and put a smile on your chapped lips.
I am a big fan of DIY, it is fun to discover new ways to customize the things we love.


Here is a great Essential oil lip gloss recipe you just might love.

Directions.
  1.  melt beeswax (use microwave or stove).
  2. once melted whip beeswax until it is creamy
  3. add honey/glycerin with a few drops of essential oil and then beat again
