    List of Ingredients




    Phase A
    1 Tbsp. (15 ml) Castor Oil (Ricinus Oil)
    ½ tsp. (1 g) D & C Pigments
    1/2 tsp. (1g) Mica Pigments
    Phase B
    ½ tsp. (1.7 g) White Beeswax
    ½ tsp. (1 g) Carnauba Wax
    1/4 tsp. (1.3ml) Vitamin E Acetate
    1/8 tsp. (0.5 g) Vaseline
    Phase C
    2 drops Paraben-DU or Grapefruit Seed Extract

    Recipe



    Add phase A into a heat resistant glass jar and stir until well mixed. Add phase B to phase A and heat it up to a maximum of 170oF or 77oC (by placing it in a hot water bath or microwave) to melt it slowly. Remove it from the heat. Important: do not overheat it, you may destroy the active ingredients! Add phase C and pour the mixture carefully but in one drive into the lipstick mold which has previously been moistened with some plant oil. If the mixture has become too sticky, just melt it again. Let the lipstick harden for a minute and place it then in the refrigerator for about two hours.
    If you do not like the color you can melt the lipstick again and create a different color.
