Do you want to know how to make lip gloss? Try these 15 super easy DIY recipes and make your own natural, vegan, clear, or tinted lip gloss at home today!
Who would not want to have truly luscious lips throughout the entire day!
Unfortunately, it’s not that simple.
As our lips don’t contain sweat or oil glands like the rest of our skin, they cannot keep themselves moisturized and they dry out continuously.
It is therefore up to you to nourish your lips and provide them with the moisture they need.
Did you know that lipsticks have been around for thousands of years? In Ancient Egypt, Cleopatra had beetles crushed up so that she could use them to color her lips deep red.
During the witch trials of the 18th century, women were accused of being witches because they had supposedly used lipstick to fool men into marrying them.
Fortunately, today we can have beautiful lips without crushing beetles or worrying about being accused of being a witch!
We have a wide variety of lip products to choose from, such as lipsticks, lip balms, or lip glosses.
For healthy, plump lips you should use a lip product continuously throughout the day. This will not only keep them moisturized but also protect them from the sun, wind, and dry air.
You should choose a product that contains the natural ingredients that will nourish and heal dry lips, not just make them shiny!
For instance, jojoba oil is light and quickly absorbed by the skin without leaving a greasy feeling. It’s rich in vitamin E, which has healing and nurturing properties.
Another great ingredient to look out for is rosehip oil. It’s used to regenerate the skin and reduce the signs of premature aging.
Rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and vitamin C, rosehip oil is often used in products that improve the appearance of stretch marks, burns, scars, and mature dry skin which makes it ideal for the lips too!
The king of all lip moisturizing ingredients is shea butter. This wonderful natural moisturizing cream is an occlusive that prevents lip dryness by locking in the natural moisture and nourishing the lips with essential fatty acids.
Shea butter not only moisturizes the lips but it also has the ability to restore skin cells’ elasticity. It therefore moisturizes and heals at the same time which makes it a wonderful ingredient in lip products.
If you use a good lip product regularly, over time your lips will become softer, healthier, and luscious looking.
I like natural makeup so I am a big fan of lip glosses that provide a fresh, youthful appearance.
They are more subtle than lipsticks meaning I don’t have to be so careful when applying them. They also give my lips a wonderful shine that I cannot get from a lipstick or regular lip balm.
There are many lip glosses available to buy these days however it’s so much more fun to make your own! Homemade beauty recipes are becoming more and more popular for a reason.
You can control what ingredients will be used to make your product, e.g. you may want your lip gloss to be made of only organic or vegan ingredients.
A good quality lip gloss made of natural ingredients it’s also not cheap so making your own product will save you some money.
