Cocoa Lip Gloss Recipe

By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Make your own chocolate flavored lip gloss using this recipe.

Materials Needed:

  • Powdered Cocoa Mix
  • Petroleum Jelly
  • Small Container

Instructions:
Put desired amount of petroleum jelly into a small glass bowl. Put it in a microwave for 30 seconds; take it out and stir. Continue doing this until the vaseline is melted. Add the desired amount of cocoa powder (experiment!) and stir. Miscrowave for 30 more seconds and stir. Set it aside to cool.

Once it is cool enough to handle, spoon it into a small container (recycle old makeup containers or 35mm film containers, or look in stores that carry beads, crafts, or fishing tackle). Set it aside until the petroleum jelly gets firm, and then it is ready to use!

You can also use this recipe to make fruit lip gloss by using powedered juice mix instead of cocoa.
