Ever had so many lipsticks that are almost out and yet they
take up so much space still? Well stress no more! I created this lip palette
and it only took a few minutes. And the best part? You can create your own
shades ;)
First off here is a list of items you’ll need to get
started.
Empty eye shadow palette (can be found on eBay, link below)
Lipsticks
Spoon (heavy duty real one)
Candle
Alcohol Wipes
Butter Knife (even the plastic ones work)
Paper towels
Step 1: Wipe down the empty eye shadow palette pans with the
alcohol wipes.
Step 2: Light your candle (I used the two wick candle above
it works a little faster)
Step 3: Open your favorite lipstick tube and cut off a piece
that is about a ¼ of an inch and place in the middle of your spoon.
Step 4: Hold over the flame of the candle and watch it melt.
*Hold about an inch away for best results (patience matters)
last thing you want is burnt lipstick. Eww*
Step 5: Once all of the lipstick has melted in your spoon
carefully pour into a pan. Once your pan is full slightly tap it on the table
to release any air-bubbles.
Your palette should be ready for use in less than 30
minutes!
You are finished!
Quick Tips:
*Cut off tiny pieces of different shades and melt together.
*Ever want a little more sparkle? Add a touch of your
favorite sparkly lipgloss when your melting!!
I really hope you all enjoy this!! I had so much fun
creating mine and was so proud of myself on how much space I saved! Besides
don’t you normally chunk your tube once it’s so low you can’t swipe it on
anyways? Now you can scoop out the rest and create your own palette that will
last months J
My favorite part? Now I can take all my favorite lipsticks with me anywhere!!
XOXO,
Allie
