MethodAdd phase A into a heat resistant glass beaker and stir well. Add phase B to phase A and heat it up to a maximum of 170oF/77oC until the waxes are melted, stir. Remove the mixture from the heat. Add then phase C to phase A/B and stir.

Grease the lipstick mold with little plant oil or dimethicone and then close the mold. While still hot and liquid pour the mixture carefully but in one drive into the lipstick mold, while pressing the mold with the fingers together to avoid leaking. Wait 2 minutes until the lipstick has hardened. Place it then into the refrigerator for 30 minutes. If you want a different color you can melt the lipstick again and change the shade by adding a little bit more pigments (note: if you add too much pigments the lipstick will get dry and brittle). Remove then one half of the lipstick mold and push the lipstick slowly out of the mold. Place the lipstick into the lipstick container. Use a sharp knife with an even blade to cut the top off the lipstick to give it its typical shape. To give it a professional look "flame" the lipstick shortly with a cigarette lighter, but be careful not to melt it. The recipe (50g/1.8oz) gives about 5-7 lipsticks

PropertiesBasic color lipstick with oils and waxes plus vitamin E as antioxidants.

MethodAdd phase A into a disinfected glass beaker and stir until everything is dispersed. Add then phase B one by one to phase A and stir well. Heat then the mixture to maximum 158oF/70oC. While still liquid, pour the mixture carefully but in one drive into the lipstick mold that has been moistened with plant oil. Press the mold together for 2 min until the mixture has hardened. Place it into the refrigerator for 30 min. Remove then one half of the mold and push the lip shimmer slowly out of the mold. Place the lip shimmer into a lipstick container. Alternatively, you can also pour the hot mixture into a lip palette or a lipgloss jar instead of using a lipstick mold.

PropertiesLip shimmer with just a hue of color. Gives smooth and softened lips with a nice shimmer. Contains a sunscreen (OM-cinnamate) to protect from UVA and UVB sun rays (SPF 12-15 approx.). Instead of pearl-white mica, golden mica or bronze can also be used which give very nice shades and lustre.

Grease the lipstick mold with little plant oil or dimethicone and then close the mold. While still hot and liquid pour the mixture carefully but in one drive into the lipstick mold, while pressing the mold with the fingers together to avoid leaking. Wait 2 minutes until the lipstick has hardened. Place it then into the refrigerator for 30 minutes. If you want a different color you can melt the lipstick again and change the shade by adding a little bit more pigments (note: if you add too much pigments the lipstick will get dry and brittle). Remove then one half of the lipstick mold and push the lipstick slowly out of the mold. Place the lipstick into the lipstick container. Use a sharp knife with an even blade to cut the top off the lipstick to give it its typical shape. To give it a professional look "flame" the lipstick shortly with a cigarette lighter, but be careful not to melt it. The recipe (50g/1.8oz) gives about 5-7 lipsticks

PropertiesBasic color lipstick with oils and waxes plus vitamin E as antioxidants.
