DIY Nourishing Lip Mask Recipe

Give dry, rough lips some extra care with this simple DIY nourishing lip mask recipe. This rich, protective lip treatment combines beeswax with castor oil, jojoba oil, and lightweight MCT oil to create a smooth balm-like mask that helps seal in moisture and leaves lips feeling soft and conditioned.
Apply a small amount before bed as an overnight lip mask, or use it anytime your lips need a little extra care. The formula is completely anhydrous, so there is no added water, and it comes together with just a few simple ingredients.

    Place the container in a double boiler or another gentle heating setup and heat until the beeswax has completely melted.
  • Allow the Mixture to Cool
    Once it has cooled somewhat but is still fluid enough to mix easily, add the vitamin E, colorant and lip-safe flavor oil.
  • Allow to Cool Completely
    Allow the mixture to cool completely.
  • Whip the Lip Mask
    Whip it using a small mixer until it becomes lighter and develops a soft, creamy consistency.
