Virgin Pina Colada Lip Gloss 6


Finished Lip Balm

Finished Lip Balm

I am a major fan of tropical fruits. Papaya, mango, kiwi, pineapple, coconut and starfruit all find a place on my kitchen counter throughout the year. They are all just so yummy. I even like to make Pina Colada inspired smoothies. Just take a can of coconut milk and some frozen pineapple and you have a tasty treat!

I intended this lip balm to be somewhat firm but very creamy. This recipe nailed it on the head. (Happy dance!) It has gotten rave reviews from the staff. Even our non-coconut fans have requested their own tubes. One gal commented on how she loved that it was glossy and so easy to apply with great staying power. She said she can’t wait to make some at home with her daughter. That sounds like so much fun!

      Dawn,

      What size tubes are you using?
      This recipe would fill 94 of the 0.15 round or oval tubes. It would fill 28 of the Bigger Lip Balm Tubes and 56 of the Big Lip Balm Tubes.

      I hope this helps!

      Cheers,
      Taylor

    This recipe is a keeper! I got a sample in the mail and have been thoroughly enjoying it! The pina colada flavor oil and the virgin coconut oil really work well together. The texture is firm, but glides on smoothly–and it has passed the pocket test! 🙂

    Thanks for a great recipe!

    I received a sample of this in my last order and I have been using it for a week. This is a great recipe! I love the texture and how long it lasts after it’s been applied. It’s super moisturizing!

    I am wondering about a good lanolin replacement in this recipe though. I would love to make this for my friends, but 2 of them have a reaction to lanolin. What could I replace the lanolin with and still get this great texture and moisturizing?

    Thanks!

      Meagan,

      Gosh, replacing lanolin can be pretty hard. For this recipe, I would use the High Melt Point Shea Butter as a replacement.
      I hope this helps! Enjoy making your lip balm!
