Answer
Cosmetic Grade Lip Balm Formulation
Creating a high-quality lip balm involves a balance of waxes for structure, butters for creaminess, and oils for moisturization. Below is a standard, effective formulation:
Ingredients:
- Beeswax (White or Yellow): 25% (Provides structure and protection)
- Shea Butter (Refined): 25% (Adds creaminess and deep hydration)
- Sweet Almond Oil: 49% (Provides a smooth glide and nourishment)
- Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate): 1% (Antioxidant to protect the skin and extend oil shelf life)
Instructions:
- Melt: Combine the Beeswax, Shea Butter, and Sweet Almond Oil in a heat-resistant container. Heat gently using a double boiler until completely melted and clear.
- Cool Slightly: Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly (but still liquid).
- Add Actives: Add the Vitamin E and stir well.
- Pour: Pour the mixture into lip balm tubes or jars while still liquid.
- Set: Allow to cool and harden completely at room temperature before capping.
Recommended Products:
- Beeswax (White - Natural)
- Shea Butter (Refined)
- Sweet Almond Oil (Refined)
- Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate)
You can find all these ingredients on the MySkinRecipes website to create your professional-grade lip balm.
