#DIY: How to Make Super-Funky Lipstick Out of Crayons!

Did you know that you could make yourself some super funky lipstick at home using a box of crayons?! Yes, that’s right, and we show you exactly how! Watch this video, and you can make all your favourite shades, from blood-red for your parties to a black that matches your Halloween costume! This DIY lipstick from crayon video is a must watch!

What you need

  • A box of non-toxic wax crayons (pick a brand like Crayola)
  • A spoon/ butter knife
  • A glass bowl
  • A large pan
  • A cooking hob
  • A small box
  • Toothpicks
  • A lipstick brush
  • Coconut oil (solid or liquid)
  • Vaseline (optional)

Now follow these simple steps

Step 1: Start with peeling off the crayon cover and cutting the crayon into approximately inch-length pieces.

Step 2: Now add about 2-3 cups of water into the pan and set the heat to medium. In case you’re using a regular gas connection, set it to low.

Step 3: When you see the water beginning to bubble, place the glass bowl in the pan. Be careful not to touch the water! (Use mittens if needed.)

Step 4: Now take about ¼ tbsp of solid coconut oil OR ½ tbsp of liquid coconut oil, and allow it to melt in the glass bowl.

Step 5: Once it melts completely, add an inch-long piece of crayon to it and stir the mixture with a toothpick. We suggest you use wooden toothpicks over plastic ones because you don’t want them melting!

Step 6: Add more coconut oil, the same quantity as before, and add another piece of the crayon to the bowl. Repeat this process till you’ve use up the entire crayon.

Step 7: When you’re done with that, pour the liquid into the container and allow it to cool down till it solidifies.

Step 8: Once it’s ready, take some on the lipstick brush and apply it on your lips – just as you would any regular lipstick!

Step 9: You can add a layer of Vaseline or clear gloss for some extra shine.

That’s it, you’re done!
