| How can you make a lip balm better? (Besides adding your favorite flavor oil to the lip balm.) Why, you add extracts of course! In this lip balm, I not only made a fantastic flavor blend, I also gave this lip balm a skin treatment punch. Great looking (and great tasting) lips are now within your grasp. We can have a party! Are you ready? Let’s turn on the radio and dance through the kitchen while we make this party in a tube. You can even add some glitter or mica. Come join me in the kitchen for strawberries, champagne and great lips.
This lip soother tastes like rich flavored strawberries paired with a smooth, bubbly champagne. It does not need to be sweetened nor is it cloyingly sweet. It makes me think of an evening picnic with the sun approaching the horizon while you enjoy a fresh and light dessert of strawberries and champagne. Sigh. The end to a perfect day. (This lip soother definitely talks to the romantic in me.) The nice thing about this lip soother is that you can wear it any time of day. I didn’t notice that the flavors or extracts added any color to the lip balm. They are fairly light in color. As another plus, this lip soother has never made my lips feel so silky and smooth. I didn’t even need very much. One glide across the lips and I am ready for anything to come my way.

This looks like a good recipe. How much more color should I add if I want a lip color?
If you want it to color your lips, a drop of the oil soluble color should be plenty. Slowly stir in small amounts of color at a time. It is a small line between just right and way too much.
Good luck!
What does the Orchid Extract and Calendula Extract do?
how many lip tube it can fill in?
You can put 50 tubes in the tray. That means 50 tubes are done very quickly!
The Orchid and Calendula Extracts are used for skin conditioning and smooth application of the product. Without the extracts you will really notice a difference.
