The international retailer LUSH has built a handmade, natural cosmetics empire. You can get your piece of the pie by making your own homemade cosmetics like lip gloss. Lip gloss is a great cosmetic to start making at home because it’s something customers use on a daily basis. Here’s how to make lip gloss to sell online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose your ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You don’t need special permits or licenses to make lip gloss to sell, but you do need to use FDA-approved ingredients.<\/a> All lip gloss contains wax, oils, and butters. Most lip glosses contain beeswax, but you can substitute Candelilla wax for a vegan product. For the oil, you can choose from coconut oil, sunflower oil, sesame oil, almond oil, or rose oil. The most common butter options are cocoa and shea butter, but mango butter would make your lip gloss stand out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to make your lip gloss pop, add color, scents, and flavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scents and flavors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If our childhood favorite LipSmackers can teach us anything, it’s that flavored lip balms and glosses will always be fun. Essential oils will add wonderful scents and flavors to your lip gloss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decorative accents<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Depending on the consistency of your homemade lip gloss, you may be able to add dried flowers as a decorative element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to buy lip gloss ingredients<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Cocoa butter:<\/strong> You can find cocoa butter (usually labeled “cacao butter”) in-store at Whole Foods, or buy it wholesale online from a site like Bulk Apothecary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wax: <\/strong>You can get beeswax from your local beekeeper or homestead market or craft store. Vegan waxes like Candelilla wax is available online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
