How To Make Pink Lipstick
If none of the previous pink lipstick colors are speaking to you, why not try to make your own? That way, you’ll know exactly what’s in it and have better control over the product’s pigment.
What you’ll need to make pink lipstick:
- 1 teaspoon of coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon of beeswax
- 1 teaspoon of pigment
- A lipstick container
- Mixing bowl
A lipstick pigment can be either a powder or liquid and they are easy to find online. The range of colors is endless; you can make red lipstick, nude lipstick, or black lipstick if pink isn’t what you are feeling like wearing today. There are also natural pigments for your at-home lipstick, such as beetroots. Beetroot is also a great way to make a lip stain.
Once you have gathered your ingredients, it’s time to put your lab coat on and begin the process.
Step #1
In your mixing bowl, add the coconut oil and place it in the microwave for a minute or until it completely melts.
Step #2
Add the beeswax to the melted coconut oil. The coconut oil’s heat should help soften the beeswax. If not, toss it into the microwave for a few seconds.
Step #3
Once everything is combined, add your pigment of choice. The more you add, the more color payoff you will have. Mix the color well, so it’s evenly distributed into the oils.
Step #4
Once it’s combined, scoop the contents into your container of choice. You can place it in the fridge or set it on the counter. It will take at least 30 minutes to an hour to completely harden. Once the oils are back to their solid form, you have your very own DIY pink lipstick.
FAQ
What Is Pink Lipstick Made Out Of?
Pink lipsticks manufactured by large companies are usually one part oil, one part wax, and one part color pigment. The wax and oil can be natural or synthetic; typically, companies do a combination of both. The iconic pink lipstick shades are made by mixing white titanium dioxide and red shades together.
Where To Get Pink Lipstick?
You can get pink lipsticks anywhere they sell makeup and beauty products, like a drugstore or Target. You can also get them at beauty retailers or online on Amazon.
Can I Apply Lip Gloss Over Pink Lipstick?
If you have purchased a new pink lipstick and find it dry, then we 100% think you should add a good layer of lip gloss over the top. It will help cut out that awful dry and crusty feeling and bring some shine and body to your peckers.
Conclusion
There are many different shades and formulas for pink lipstick, and it’s hard to go wrong. Some products and formulas are stronger in certain areas and weaker in others. You may think the best lipstick products are what other people find to be the worse. It’s all about finding the perfect middle-ground product for you, as there isn’t one universal lipstick perfect for everyone.
