Just found this on Tonya Kays fab website ..... Im off to make some! x

So, I don't wanna buy the plastic containers that lip stick comes in. Nor do I want to put any potentially dangerous ingredients onto my lips, which are really another name for "just outside the mouth skin". So I devised a delicious and all raw lip gloss!

In my sexy solar powered food dehydrator, I placed a bowl of (all organic):

- 1/2 C raw cacao butter
- 1/8 C raw coco butter
- 1/4 C raw coconut oil
- 1/4 C raw orange blossom honey
- 5 drops spearmint essential oil

Let these things melt in the sun's heat, give'em a good stir, and pour into little lip balm containers and let harden. And get this: all the ingredients are food - actually, decadent superfood desert ingredients! I'm wearing food on my lips and it tastes good. I better not carry a spoon else I eat it before I audition in it.

To color the gloss, I added a 1/4t of mineral blush to 2t of the gloss, stirring thoroughly before allowing to harden.

ingenious !!

Okay so I slightly melted about a teaspoon of coconut oil and mixed a teaspoon of olive oil into it. I dropped in a drop or two of peppermint oil and some beetroot powder. It's rawesome!

Ooh inspiring, I've been planning on making a raw lip-balm for some time and might base it off this - but make it a bit thicker & more 'balm' like Smiley

For colour - I can't beat BerryBliss's idea of staining your lips with blueberries before going out, she's a smart one!

Blueberries and beet-root sound amazing. Guess we could also try raspberry and mulberries as well Smiley
