Tropical Illusion Lip Balm

Finished Lip Balm

I love vacations but I don’t always have the ability to just pick up and go. So I like to bring a vacation to me. Sometimes I do it by choosing a new scent for my lotion or I make bath salts so I can sit in the evening and relax. Today, I am providing a vacation to my lips! Come join me for a tropical illusion!

Recipe:

Heated Lip Solutions

Start with the Lip Solutions Base of your choice. I will be using our Soy Lip Solutions base, but there are many to choose from. Select your favorite. Heat the base gently in the microwave until melted. Once the base has completely melted, add the Island Delight Flavor Oil and Sugar Baby Flavor Oil. Stir well.

Adding Flavor Oil

From here, you can either pipette the mixture into your tubes or you can use a filling tray. I like using a filling tray because they are simple and fast. If you are using a filling tray, insert your tubes into your tray. Flood the tray with your melted lip balm. Allow the mixture to cool. Scrape off the excess. I like to use a plastic putty knife. Remove the tubes from the tray and cap.

Putting lip balm in tubes

If you are going to pipette the lip balm into the tubes, fill the tube until you get a dome of liquid material at the top. Wax shrinks when it cools and doing this helps insure that you get a very pretty top. Fill all of your tubes making sure they are domed on the top before they cool. (You may need to reheat your jar of Lip Solutions during this process. This is normal and to be expected.) Allow the tubes to cool then cap.

Now you can give your lip balm a pretty label or put it into a cute bag. Enjoy this great lip balm and give as gifts! If you want to try this lip balm for yourself, tell us in the comments field of your next order! We are sending over 500 lip balms to the shipping department!
