Yesterday, we shared a reel on Facebook and Instagram of our Coffee Butter being scooped, and we decided that it would be so much fun to show you how to turn any of our Lip Solutions into a coffee lip balm. I took inspiration from the blog archives in this old post from 2009, Coffee Lip Balm.
Come join us in the blog kitchen for an easy project!

Weigh everything into a microwave-safe container except the Sugar Baby II Flavor and Caramel Toffee Flavor. Heat gently until everything is liquid. If you have a few stubborn pieces of wax, remove the container from the microwave and stir until melted. Add the flavor oils and mix well. Pour the lip balm into your containers. If you are using tubes, you can either pipette the lip balm into the tubes or use one of our fabulous filling trays! Allow the lip balm to cool. Cap and enjoy!
Lip Balm Notes: I love this lip balm’s creamy and glossy texture! This lip balm has a heavier glossy feeling that is perfect for giving my winter-chapped lips some remarkable TLC. I was even impressed that I could keep a tube next to a pocket warmer without having my lip balm melt! This is definitely a great lip balm for year-round use. Would I make this recipe again? Oh yeah!
I made lots of samples to share with all of our #adventurousmakers. Don’t forget to request a sample with your next order!
