I can’t bring myself to pay 50 cents for a tube of lip gloss for a kid who is likely going to eat it, lose it, or otherwise destroy it. Here is a great recipe for little girls lip gloss. This isn’t the best recipe for adults (mainly because I haven’t found the colors to be so flattering…although if you use more shortening I guess you probably wouldn’t notice.)
Mix 2 TBSP shortening with 1 TBSP kool-aid type mix in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high until the mixture becomes a liquid (approximately 30 seconds). Stir together to blend. Pour into final lidded container and let sit until the mixture hardens and cools.
