Cranberry Lip Gloss

This lip gloss is very easy to make and uses real fruit. It tastes wonderful.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp sweet almond oil
  • 10 fresh cranberries
  • 1 tsp honey

Instructions:

  1. Mix all ingredients together in a microwave for 2 minutes or until the mixture just begins to boil.

  2. Stir well and gently crush the berries.

  3. Strain through a fine seive to remove all the fruit pieces.

  4. Pour into a small container.

Allow to cool before using.

I'm thinking about making my own lip gloss, and I was wondering--will the recipes make the kind that you could put in a small container and apply with your finger, or is it the kind that's liquidy? Do you recommend any stores that sell cheap lip gloss containers?

This particular lipgloss would be watery, certainly not solid. The best containers are film canisters, or small containers that you get sequins or beads in. I wouldn't recommend buying containers, you can buy lip gloss from places like Go-Lo, $2 shops, etc, very cheap. You could re-use old lip-gloss containers or ask around for some.
