DIY Tinted Lip Balm

This lovely DIY tinted lip balm is very similar to the DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax. The main difference is that this DIY tinted lip balm contains beeswax. The beeswax makes the lip balm go on smoothly. It does so while sealing in the moisture from the skin nourishing butter and oil. So, unless you want, need, or prefer a lip balm without beeswax, the DIY tinted lip balm with beeswax is the way to go!

Ingredients

This DIY tinted lip balm is prepared with mango butter, almond oil, beeswax, and colorant.

1. Mango Butter

Mango butter is a natural antimicrobial, and it does an excellent job of moisturizing the skin on your lips. While it is solid at room temperature, the mango butter softens easily when you apply the DIY tinted lip balm to your lips.

2. Almond Oil

Almond oil is another antioxidant-rich, skin loving oil that makes a wonderful addition to lip balms. As an antioxidant, almond oil can help to naturally preserve the quality of your DIY tinted lip balm. And what is more, it does an excellent job of moisturizing your lips without making them feel sticky or greasy.

3. Beeswax

Beeswax creates a protective barrier for your lips with the ingredients used in this DIY tinted lip balm. The beeswax is an emollient that seals the moisture in your lips. And as a humectant, it can attract and retain even more moisture. You will need a white beeswax or a vegan white candelilla wax to make DIY tinted lip balm. Otherwise, the yellow beeswax may alter the color of your tinted lip balm.

4. Colorant

The DIY tinted lip balm should be prepared with a lip safe mica powder. You can find the perfect color or create your own unique color.

Yields: 2-3 Tinted Lip Balms (Depending on tube size.)

DIY Tinted Lip Balm Without Beeswax

This DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax is a simple luscious lip balm. It plays both roles of moisturizing and tinting your lips very well. It is an effective lip treatment and colorant, yet it is about as simple as it gets to prepare. Without any beeswax, this lip balm is a luscious creamy textured tinted lip butter. Once the cream is applied to your lips, the lip balm butter melts easily while leaving whatever lip tint you decide to use behind.

If you are interested in a DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax because you want a vegan lip balm, there is a candelilla vegan white wax that can be substituted for the beeswax. A DIY tinted lip balm with beeswax can give this lip balm a firmer texture, glide on your lips smoothly, and better withstand temperature changes. But otherwise, the DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax can still moisturize and tint your lips well. So, let’s get to the few ingredients used.

Ingredients

This DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax is prepared with mango butter, almond oil, and colorant.

1. Mango Butter

A refined (unscented) mango butter is the main ingredient used in this DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax. One reason it is an ideal butter to use in a lip balm without beeswax is because it has a melting point of 86 degrees. Therefore, you can still pour the lip balm in a tube and apply it to your lips like a regular lip balm when at a normal room temperature. In addition to this, mango butter creates a rich, creamy, and moisturizing balm for your lips. And it does so without making them feel sticky or greasy.

2. Almond Oil

To add even more moisturizing properties to this DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax, you can add a few drops of almond oil. It too has many skin-nourishing properties that can moisturize and treat your lips. Without beeswax, only a few drops of this liquid oil can be added.

3. Colorant

There are all kinds of powdered mica colorants that you can choose from. Since the powder will ultimately go on your lips, you will need to use one of the lip safe mica colorants to make this DIY tinted lip balm without beeswax. And, if you want it to be vegan, you can look for lip safe vegan mica powder. The really nice thing about making your own tinted lip balm is that you can use the same colorants to make your own matching DIY nail polish as well!
