Hello, beautiful! Welcome back to another series of Do-It-Yourself (DIY) fun project.

So in the previous DIY project, I’ve shared a list of 10 best DIY facial toner which is super easy to do and good for your skin. Today, I’m going to share with you another awesome DIY beauty product which is LIP BALM. YAY! Many people think that lip balms are only meant for people who have chapped lips, but this is not true! Tinted lip balm works equally good like common lipsticks which add a tint of natural color to your lips. Applying lip balm also gives you a fuller and juicier lips. Besides, our lips are more prone to get dry in cold season, so lip balms will ensure your lips are well hydrated and make your chapped lips heal faster. However, you don’t have to spend a fortune on branded lip balms because a homemade lip balm is effective enough to keep your lips hydrated and healthy.

Here are the best DIY lip balm recipes I’ve found on the internet and you should definitely give it a try today!

• 5 drops of vanilla essential oil (or 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract if you can’t find vanilla essential oil)

First step: How to make rose-infused oil?

1. Prepare a handful of dried rose petals in a heat resistance glass jar, make sure the dried rose petals filled about 1/3 of the glass jar.
2. Then, fill the glass jar with ¾ full of olive oil. (You can opt for avocado oil, grapeseed oil or sunflower oil)

2. Then, take out a sauce pan and fill in with an inch of water, bring it to a simmer over low-heat temperature.
3. Place the measuring jar on top of the sauce pan. Wait for it to melt completely.
4. While waiting for the mixture to melt, mix ¼ teaspoon of rose-infused oil together with alkanet root powder in a small bowl until it is well-blended.
