I didn't realize how easy it was to make lip balm! I should start making my own since the lip balms on the market has so many chemicals. Thanks girl! x
So about two years ago I became allergic to almost all lip balms for some odd reason. I had to say good bye to all my eos lip balms, which was my favorite brand, and now all I can use is Vaseline or Carmex (blech). This looks like a really good option and all I have to do is try to get my hands on the beeswax to get started.
+Sweet y Salado Hi, Diana! I've never tried eos, I wonder what it was that gave you a reaction? I'm glad you aren't experiencing that anymore! Much love!!
Hi Angela, I was just trying to make diy lipbalm by using your recipe. It works well. However, once its solid, it got melt as water when I store it in a dry place. Do you think that I should store it as always in a fridge to make it solid? or any other idea to deal with this? Thanks in advance :)
+Lizard Lady Hooray! I highly recommend using cacao butter then, it naturally smells like chocolate and will definitely boost the aroma therapy experience =)
LOVVEE your recipes. About how long does this last? Also, do you have any recommendations on where to find how much Vitamin E to add to things like undereye cream?
Hi, Rinaldi This really depends on the quality of your ingredients. Mine last up to 6 months but the ones I'm not using at the moment are stored in the fridge, especially since I live in the tropics and it's super hot =)
I tried to make it myself but then it turned out to be really oily, is it naturally that oily? or did I just put too much oil? Do you know the exact amount of oil and beeswax that I should put in? :')
Hi, Brittany! I just made a salve in one of my recent videos. You can definitely swap the noni with rose essential oil and use cacao, shea and hempseed oils instead of coconut and voila! The printable recipe link is in the description box =)
Absolutely adored this DIY - so creative but so simple! I hope you're having a wonderful entry into the Autumn months and that everything is going well :) (Also, love the Stones sweater ;) )
+Melani Carrie Thank you, Melani! We're getting crazy weather over here {possibly a category 4 with Joaquin} but on the bright side, if it does come through, I get to spend the weekend with my folks!!! How are you, love?
+TheSquishyMonster Joaquin, of course! I hope you have been staying safe amidst all of Mother Nature's fury! I have been adjusting well enough to being back, but having 9am-10pm days, 6 days a week has definitely started taking its toll... Saturday has become a blessed day indeed!!
beeswax isn't available in my country can I use vaseline instead?And if I add food coloring to my lip balms to add colour or eyeshadow for color?Please reply
Hi, Sabrina. I don't personally use vaseline or food colors but you certainly may. Keep in mind that the balm-like texture of this is derivative from the solidifying process of the wax. I've also used candelila wax in my vegan lip balm video. This helps it to maintain its shape and glide on when applying. Especially since you're applying this on your lips, we all inevitably end up swallowing a bit of it so keep in mind to keep you ingredients as pure and wholesome as possible but again, that's all up to you.
Hi,Janelle! If keeping it all natural isn't a priority, they sell flavored/scented oils just for this purpose. I've on *occasion* seen ones that read that they're natural but for the all natural route, you can crush in dried berries =)
Quality raw cacao or cocoa should naturally carry a chocolate flavor along with it. You could try using raw cacao butter as part of the base. I personally stay away from all the "major" grocery brands and seek out fair trade cocoa or cacao from a reputable source. You'll be able to tell from its natural scent, deeper color and milled consistency.
As vaseline is non sustainable and a terrible byproduct, I would not use it. Also, the beeswax or candelila (more info in the description box) allow the balm to set =)
My plane lip balms have lasted me 6 to 12 months. Since these have extra additions, I would either store them in the fridge or use them up within a month or two.
Hi, Haylie. I would not recommend it. Since you're applying this to your person, I'd keep this diy as natural as possible. Petroleum jelly is a byproduct of oil refining and is not not a renewable process. It's pretty harsh stuff. I personally reach for un-petroleum. Additionally, you want the wax to lend structure to your product so it glides on your lips. You can also find a vegan lip balm version on my channel as well =)
Hi! I would not recommend spreading melted crayon on your lips. You can check in the description box for a vegan alternative if you're looking for one =)
I wouldn't recommend putting that on your lips either. We tend to swallow a lot of product that we apply to our lips and our skin happens to be our largest organ on our body.
Hi, Dalene. It won't solidify without it. You can read more about why I chose these ingredients and how they work in the printable recipe link in the description box below each of my videos =)
Dalene Parks beeswax keeps it solid. If you really can't get it, use cocoa butter as its decently hard and less coconut oil. It will be decently hard but beeswax is best. You can also whip it and add more coconut oil to create a lip butter
Hi, Hannah. If you're not using beeswax, you must use candelila {check the description box below for my vegan lip balm video and the printable recipe links for each recipe}.
your lip balms look really tasty, can we make a dark brown lipstick with cocoa powder or coffee? i really wanted a recipe to make a dark brown lipstick or lip balm, please help! love!
Hi, Meghna! Cacao/cocoa or coffee will only really make a "stain." You would have to incorporate the actual shade of lipstick into these to get the color you want =)
+Andjela Budisa Hi, Andjela! I have a video on vegan lip balm if you don't have/like beeswax. I personally stay away from vaseline as it's an unsustainable resource and is a direct by product of oil refining. In the end however, it's all up to you and what you like =)
Since you're applying it to your person, especially the lips, you're bound to ingest some of it. Good news is that since it's without petroleum and the like, it's ok in small doses but I definitely wouldn't recommend eating it =)

Great video! I just wanted to evangelize and say that God loves you and you are known! God bless you Angela!
I'm going to start making my own lip balms. These look and probably smell really nice. I can't wait to make it for myself! 😊
Hooray!

+TheSquishyMonster I had a big reaction as well to eos
Loved your remedy, only left out the wax because I didn't have any. I used refined shea butter which sets very well too.
This is an amazing idea! And its so simple and natural too! Love this and cannot wait to try it
Nothing like a nice Lady one knows wearing a flavored lip balm. WONDERFUL! Thanks for sharing this Angie! Have a great day!!
+LESTER N Thank you, Les. I hope yours is wonderful!

Hi Angela..lovely video, can u show a coffee powder in lip balm recipe? I tried, but mine clumped...
Try “blooming” instant in the warm oil :)

Mmmm the hot cocoa one is cool! thx ^.^
+Emma, That One Dorky Blonde Thanks, Emma. I hope you have an awesome day!!
TheSquishyMonster you replied! You have a good day too!!

LOVVEE your recipes. About how long does this last? Also, do you have any recommendations on where to find how much Vitamin E to add to things like undereye cream?
Coolest chapstick DIY video ever!! :-D I like the chocolate one!
+One Kitchen - A Thousand Ideas Thanks, lady! I hope you're having a great day!
The cocoa one looks real good! How long is the shelf life, btw?
Hi, Rinaldi This really depends on the quality of your ingredients. Mine last up to 6 months but the ones I'm not using at the moment are stored in the fridge, especially since I live in the tropics and it's super hot =)
Thank you so much for the answer! ^^
these all sound so yummy!!!😻
+Lillian Jenkins Thank you so much for watching, Lillian!
+TheSquishyMonster anytime!! I love your channel!!
OMG hot cocoa and pumpkin spice. My favorite..
Huge hugs, Barbarella!
How long do I keep it in the freezer?
These look amazing Angela! Great tutorial.
+SweetCupcakeSprinkles Thanks, doll!!
Mmm the Hot Cocoa one looks great!
+Kalliste Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate you!
Great video! Thanks so much!
Very nice.Will this not liquefy at warm temperatures?
Hi, Henry! I live in a pretty year round humid climate in the tropics and it stays solid for me.
@@TheSquishyMonster ,Thanks will give it a try..am in the tropics as well.
Can you use Vaseline instead of beeswax
wow your wonderful! and u made it so easily...I am surely gonna try this one!😀
Happy balm makin'!
TheSquishyMonster thanks😍🤓😻
Oh..... Ok, thanks. I'll check it out.
I tried to make it myself but then it turned out to be really oily, is it naturally that oily? or did I just put too much oil? Do you know the exact amount of oil and beeswax that I should put in? :')
Hello! You can find the printable recipe link in the description box below each of my videos :)
Omg thank you, I found the link but it doesn't seem to work! I went to the blog and found all the recipes!
What size of containers are they? It it the 10
I'll definitely try it, I plan to do it. I praise for the quality video and I will be your fan :-)
Can you use all spices powder
Could I use shea butter instead of beeswax or will it not set the same? Love your videos!
It won't set the same but if you desire a looser consistency, you can swap :)
can you do a organic Rose salve video with cocoa butter and Shea plus hempseed oil please...I would appreciate it alot.
Hi, Brittany! I just made a salve in one of my recent videos. You can definitely swap the noni with rose essential oil and use cacao, shea and hempseed oils instead of coconut and voila! The printable recipe link is in the description box =)
don't have pumpkin spice
Can we add the sticky honey?
Wow...Can I use vanilla essence or any other essence in it for the flavour.
Hi, Raksha! I wouldn't add vanilla essence/extract as the alcohol has a very drying effect {more info in my description box below each video} =)
Can you make it without coconut oil
hey girl I loved ur recipe soooo much , can i use olive oil instead of coconut oil ?since i didn't fine organic virgin coonut oil in my country
Hi, love! Yes, you could. I would just aim for an unrefined non comedogenic oil :)
Thanks 🥰🥰🥰
Absolutely adored this DIY - so creative but so simple! I hope you're having a wonderful entry into the Autumn months and that everything is going well :) (Also, love the Stones sweater ;) )

you stay away from extracts but can we use peppermint essential oil?
Mint can actually be drying to the lips which is why I suggest staying away from them 👍
I made cocoa lip balm sooooo nice 😘
can u put this in a normal chapstick container? does it melt?
Hi, Susan. You could, though it's softer than my other lip balm {tubes} which you can find here: th-cam.com/video/7Sv7WujNmXI/w-d-xo.html
My sister I love your channel....
+Ray Mack's Kitchen and Grill Best news ever!!
Are there any alternatives to coconut oil I could use?
+Hadley Alexandra Hi, Hadley! I've had great luck with grapeseed oil =)
+TheSquishyMonster okay, thanks!!
u are the best !!!!!
+makeupabsolu YOU are! =)
Hi
did you use Cocoa Powder for the Chocolate Lip balm
yes she did
ooo this I have to try!
how would you do a berry flavor lip balm?
Hi,Janelle! If keeping it all natural isn't a priority, they sell flavored/scented oils just for this purpose. I've on *occasion* seen ones that read that they're natural but for the all natural route, you can crush in dried berries =)
Thank u
Can’t find the dyi pumpkins spice recipe
love it !!!! Thanks !
+Raquel Torres Thank you, Raquel, lots of love!!
you could do a cinnamon or a expresso one
+Sarah Hussein Hi, Sarah. Thank you for the requests =)
While using natural Coco powder I found it had no flavor even after using honey, is there anything I can do to give it a boost of flavor or chocolate?
Quality raw cacao or cocoa should naturally carry a chocolate flavor along with it. You could try using raw cacao butter as part of the base. I personally stay away from all the "major" grocery brands and seek out fair trade cocoa or cacao from a reputable source. You'll be able to tell from its natural scent, deeper color and milled consistency.
I love spreading lip balm on toast...
+Tom Cote (The Food Snot) At least it's not like Milhouse {from the Simpsons} spreading vaseline on toast =)
does anyone know what i can use instead of beeswax
Hello! You can use candelila wax (especially for a vegan version). You can check the link + more info in the description box below my videos =)
Can u do strawberry cheese cake and mint coco and maybe mtn dew
+hailey olli Hi, Hailey! I will add it to my list =)
Can I used beeswax substitute the Vaseline??
As vaseline is non sustainable and a terrible byproduct, I would not use it. Also, the beeswax or candelila (more info in the description box) allow the balm to set =)
PUMPKIN SPICE EVERTHING!!!!!!!!!!!
+ender kitten I've yet to have a latte this season. I'm late =)
Hello I'm a new here.nice great sharing Friend 🤩♥️🙏
Is very good
Thank you so much for watching, Lakshmi!
What is the shelve life of that lip balm?
My plane lip balms have lasted me 6 to 12 months. Since these have extra additions, I would either store them in the fridge or use them up within a month or two.
cherry, coconut, strawberry lip balm if you can
in high school i made my own cherry kool aid gloss
instead of the beeswax can I use petroleum jelly?
Hi, Haylie. I would not recommend it. Since you're applying this to your person, I'd keep this diy as natural as possible. Petroleum jelly is a byproduct of oil refining and is not not a renewable process. It's pretty harsh stuff. I personally reach for un-petroleum.

+TheSquishyMonster oh ok thank you
wow amazing video,I'm a new subscriber
Great to meet you, Sabrina. I'm really happy you're here!
I don't have bees wax, can I use Vaseline?
I wouldn’t recommend it as it’s a harsh, unsustainable by product and also won’t solidify your balm.
Hey.. If I don't have Beeswax, what else can I use?
Candelila which is what I used in my vegan lip balm video. You can also find more info in the description box below each of my videos =)
Can crayon be a substitute for beeswax??
Hi! I would not recommend spreading melted crayon on your lips. You can check in the description box for a vegan alternative if you're looking for one =)
TheSquishyMonster but i cant buy that either so can i use candle wax then??
I wouldn't recommend putting that on your lips either. We tend to swallow a lot of product that we apply to our lips and our skin happens to be our largest organ on our body.
what are the measurements? or do you just eyeball it ?
You can find the printable recipe link below in the description box for every one of my videos =)
It still works you not use beewax?
Hi, Dalene. It won't solidify without it. You can read more about why I chose these ingredients and how they work in the printable recipe link in the description box below each of my videos =)
Dalene Parks beeswax keeps it solid. If you really can't get it, use cocoa butter as its decently hard and less coconut oil. It will be decently hard but beeswax is best. You can also whip it and add more coconut oil to create a lip butter
is the beeswax optianol ?
Hi, Hannah. If you're not using beeswax, you must use candelila {check the description box below for my vegan lip balm video and the printable recipe links for each recipe}.
I book marked this video for my 10th birthday 🍰
Happy early birthday, Paige!
your lip balms look really tasty, can we make a dark brown lipstick with cocoa powder or coffee? i really wanted a recipe to make a dark brown lipstick or lip balm, please help! love!
Hi, Meghna! Cacao/cocoa or coffee will only really make a "stain." You would have to incorporate the actual shade of lipstick into these to get the color you want =)
TheSquishyMonster thanks, perhaps i will add quite an amount of food colour or lipstick to make it really dark....
Bom Diggity Bom Bom you'll likely only get a tiny, if you want a true color you'll have to use an actual lipstick or mica
yummy
love it soooooooooo
Thanks, Kellie!!
How do you keep it harden I'm a person who loves heat
+Zola Zuri Hi, Zola! I keep mine in my pocket and it hasn't melted on me. You can always add a bit more beeswax to it too =)
Gotcha thanks so much I will definitely try this.
I'm vegan and don't use beeswax. Is there something you would recommend in place of that ingredient?
Hi, Amanda! I have a vegan lip balm recipe linked in the description box below =)
If i want it to be dark, what do i have to do?
Hi, Beatrix. Do you want to know how to darken lip balm in general? You can add a bit of lipstick to it but I prefer beet juice.
The cocoa one, it's that a way of make it brown on the lips? naturally
I don't personally know of any that will make them straight up brown but you could try using a dutch process cocoa for a slightly darker color.
Thank you
TheSquishyMonster I love you I watch your videos every day even the ones I already watched
When she says yummy, you drink!!
Lipliner? And video on that?
i dont have beeswax . can i use a Vaseline ?
+Andjela Budisa Hi, Andjela! I have a video on vegan lip balm if you don't have/like beeswax. I personally stay away from vaseline as it's an unsustainable resource and is a direct by product of oil refining. In the end however, it's all up to you and what you like =)

What are the measurement s?
Hi, Moita! You can always find more info in the description box below each of my videos =)

Since you're applying it to your person, especially the lips, you're bound to ingest some of it. Good news is that since it's without petroleum and the like, it's ok in small doses but I definitely wouldn't recommend eating it =)
Aaliya wouldn't recommend eating a bunch of it but a few licks is totally safe
What could you use if you don’t have beeswax?🤷🏽♀️
