• Young Living Lavender Essential Oil
• Vitamin E Oil

The all natural ingredients in this DIY lip gloss are all great for soothing dry lips. The two main oils for lip gloss in this recipe are Coconut oil and vitamin E oil. These two oils for lip gloss provide many benefits.

Liquid coconut oil is the clear, base lip gloss oil selected because it is affordable and excellent for hydrating skin. As Honest Company points out, coconut oils is good for healing lips and helping them maintain their softness. If you prefer, you may substitute olive oil, grapeseed oil, sweet almond oil, or jojoba oil for the carrier oil as the base of this homemade lip gloss recipe.

Vitamin E oil has been added to this recipe because it is also good for maintaining lip health and glow. As Healthline says, “Vitamin E boosts circulation and may help generate new skin cells, making your lips softer.”

The essential oils chosen for this roll on lip gloss were picked for their lovely scent, as well as their anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Essential oils are very potent and always be added to a carrier oil before use.

*I am a Young Living distributor and I recommend using Young Living essential oils because they are high quality, therapeutic grade essential oils.

How To Make Natural Lip Gloss

Lip gloss making is fun! There are only a few steps for how to make liquid lip gloss. You can start making your DIY roller bottle lip gloss by collecting your supplies and heading to the kitchen counter or other cleared workspace.

Take the lid and rollerball off of the bottle. Next, add your Spearmint and Lavender Essential Oils. You’ll drop in 3 drops of each essential oil.

After you have added your essential oils, add 8 drops of Vitamin E oil. Vitamin E oil is very good for lips and skin! Vitamin E is believed to  help protect from damage caused by ultraviolet rays and is a powerful antioxidant.

Fill the bottle with liquid coconut oil. This has many great benefits including helping to reduce inflammation, keeping skin moisturized, and even healing wounds. Be sure to leave some space on the top of the lip gloss mixture so you can pop the rollerball back into the bottle without it spilling over.

Pop the rollerball top back on. Give a gentle shake and you are ready to use your Soothing Summer DIY Roll On Lip Gloss. However, if you have never used essential oils before, it is a good idea to test a bit on a small spot of less visible skin just to ensure you have no sensitivities to these essential oils.
