I love wearing red lipstick when going out!

The problem is that I can't stand store-bought lipsticks...

They dry my lips and burn me.

Probably because they contain products with names that are impossible to pronounce!

So, of course, I decided to make my own lipstick with the trendy colors of the moment.

Don't worry, this natural homemade lipstick recipe is quick and easy to make . Watch:

Be aware that I tried homemade colored lip balms first but the color was not dark and matte enough for me.

I then tested a large variety of different dyes, and it was the red clay from the Australian reef that satisfied me the most. The color is bright and deep and is exactly what I was looking for.

I started with a simple recipe including shea butter and avocado oil, for their moisturizing qualities.

For the coloring I chose to put clay. And more specifically, deep red clay.

I mix it with a few drops of peppermint essential oil until I get a thick, oily red mixture. Then I poured it into empty lipstick tubes.

Here is the easy-to-make recipe in detail:

What you need

- 4 g of beeswax

- 7 g of shea butter

- 4 g of cocoa butter

- 10 g avocado oil

- 2 teaspoons Australian Red Reef Clay

- 5 to 10 drops of peppermint essential oil

How to

1. Melt the beeswax, shea butter, cocoa butter and avocado oil over low heat in a small saucepan.

And There you go ! You made your own lipstick in minutes :-)

Easy, fast and natural, right?

In any case me, it's exactly the color that I love! And I can tell you that I only put more than that.

No more dry lips that burn me! My lips love it and so do I.

It is best to apply this lipstick with a brush because the color is so intense and matte that you have to be careful.

Additional advice

- You can adapt the color by choosing the clays or ocher powders you want, and mixing them to your liking.

- If you don't want to use Australian clay, you can use Provence red clay. It is just as effective but a little less coloring.

- Remember to store your homemade lipstick in a cool, dry place.

- I love this homemade lipstick which goes well with the rest of my makeup. Smoky eyes and this deep red make for a glamorous look, inspired by the 40s and 50s.
