Hi everyone!
This afternoon I have been making my
own lip balms using this fab set from Not On The High Street which my boyfriend
bought me for Christmas. I loved the look of the kit when I opened it on
Christmas day and thought it was a really nice touch that it was personalised
with my name of the front of the box.
The kit includes everything you need
to make your very own lip balms including:
-
Shea
Butter
-
Beeswax
-
Cocoa
Butter
-
Almond
and Calendula Oil
-
Flavour
(mine was strawberry flavour)
-
Lip
balm pots
They are so easy to do as you simply
melt the Shea Butter, Beeswax and Cocoa Butter together in a bowl over hot
water and then stir in the Almond and Calendula Oil. Once it is all completely
melted you take the mixture off the heat and add in the flavouring. After
making sure you have mixed it all together well, just pour the mixture into the
little tins provided and wait for it to set! And that’s it, you have your very
own homemade lip balms!
I love that it is so simple and fun to
do and I get something that I will use loads at the end of it. I’m still
waiting for the lip balms to cool but I will try them out over the next few
days and get back to you with a review on how well they work.
What do you think of this gift idea?
Would you like to make your own lip balms?
Thanks for reading,

This is so cool and it's such a lovely gift set too! I want to get this for myself, would be such a lowly DIY.

@Shireen L. Platt I would definitely recommend and I think it's a fab gift that's something a bit different too :) xx
ReplyDelete@Ray Turner Very true, even if the lip balms don't turn out to be that good it was still fun to make them and do something that's a bit different :)
ReplyDelete@Marie Sanderson It is really easy and fun to do, it's worth giving it a go :) x
