Suggestions
- Instead of the cotton swab, you can use a toothpick to remove the eyeshadow. If you use the cotton swab there is a risk that the product gets stuck in the cotton fibers.
- You can also choose to crush some candy and add the resulting powder to your lip gloss to create a tastier and more fun product!
- You can use some pearly eyeshadows to add some shine to your lip gloss if you like. They, unlike food coloring, will not stain your skin. You can also melt some chocolate and add it to the product to create a tastier and tastier lip gloss.
- You can add some sugar and use the product to make a lip scrub.
- Always apply the product with clean fingers.
- You can add red or pink food coloring.
- Add some lipstick to create a colorful product.
- If you wish, you can also add glitter which are used to decorate the cakes and add some light to your lips.
Warnings
- Make sure you are not allergic to any of the ingredients listed above.
- Food coloring can stain your lips and can be difficult to remove.
- Do not exceed the doses when pouring soluble drinks, otherwise the mixture could become too sticky and difficult to apply. Be careful as some products may irritate chapped lips!
- DO NOT EAT the product. It's okay to lightly swipe your tongue and taste some lip gloss, but it's best to avoid bingeing!
- If you are using oil to soften the mixture, be careful not to spill too much. You may get an unpleasant greasy effect!
