lbtddr Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 i have tried making a few but they are not what i am looking for. does any one remember years ago when they had lip balm in little pots. i remember red i think cherry but it was kinda thin all most like the liquid they sold back then in little bottles with the little round ball on top. but this was thicker to ware you dipped your finger in it but it was not hard like carmex.any ideas on how to make this. sorry for the long post.

eugenia Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Try one of your recipes but leave out the beeswax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 You might also want to grab some sweetner too. I found it to be a tad to bitter without it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CareBear Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 stevia seems to be popular, but I don't know how to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlebean Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 I bought some lip flavor in the MMS CO-OP and was told that "Sugar Kisses" can be used as a sweetner...but I haven't had the need to use it yet...I don't know how much to add either :undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc26 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 I would try leaving out the beeswax or reducing it. Then you can create the the texture you need. Start with none and add until you have it how you want it, but be sure to write down what you did so that you can make more later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
