Tips for Making Your Own Raspberry Lip Balm

I love this diy raspberry lip balm. It’s easy to make with just five ingredients and just a few minutes of time. I’ve made a couple of batches of this lip balm and I really like it plus everyone I’ve shared it with loves it too. If you want to get started making your own beauty recipes this one is definitely a great one to start with.

If you want to tint the lip balm, use a little lipstick and stir it into the melted oils. Don’t use food coloring. I discovered the hard way that food colors will not mix in. I ruined one batch in the process of making this lip balm.

The flavorings can be strong so only add one or two drops to the first batch. Then if it’s not strong enough increase for the next batches. I like just a little flavoring and since this is a small batch one or two drops is usually plenty.

Don’t microwave the oils too long without stirring in between intervals. It can scorch they honey in the recipe. Play it safe and stir every 10 seconds or so.

If your microwave safe container doesn’t have a spout then you’ll want to use a spoon to spoon the melted lip balm into the container. I’ve found that pouring it from a bowl can be hard and you can easily lose some over the edge and dripping down the bowl. It also makes a mess.

Let the lip balm sit on a flat surface while hardening and don’t touch it until it’s firm. If you touch it before it hardens it won’t have a nice smooth surface, it will be bumpy instead. Let it sit and fully cool before handling it.

    1. Ours lasted well for a few months. We had one that we kept for 6 months but it didn’t look very good so we threw it out. I try to only make what we will use in just a couple of months. I hope this helps. It might keep better in the refrigerator. I stored it in a drawer in the bathroom and it gets pretty warm in there during the warm months of the year.
