Dear Santa, I Want To Make My Own Lip Balms
As a child I used to love when my sister purchased me all those “smart” “DIY” craft kits. Let’s see, I had a kit to create my own jewelry, I had a Fashion Plates, I had Shrinky Dinks (which were completely pointless but incredible to my feeble six year old self), so, yeah, you get the point….! I mean we all, at some point in our childhood, had some sort of do it yourself kit. I think the reason I don’t know how to cook today is because of the Easy Bake Oven!
Recently, I was at Barnes and Noble, I know right? Who goes to the book store anymore? I missed those days! Anyway, I was at the book store and I came across this All-Natural Lip Balm Boutique. I ended up buying it, but not for me. No really, it’s a gift. I picked it up for my little cousin in the hopes she’ll open it and require me to help her use it. Ahem…yeah, that’s a good excuse.
Someone is bound to comment and tell me how easy it is to make lip balms. People, I burn boiling water. Attempting to create lip balms might result in me burning down Manhattan. This kit contains molds, stickers, and everything else you need to create six beewax lip spheres.
Needless to say it looks terribly exciting. Is it odd I want one for myself? Apparently you have to buy essential oils separately to flavor the balms but that shouldn’t be a problem.
Wish me luck helping my cousin create these. I mean, I can’t blow up the house or anything with a melt and pour lip balm set right?
This kit is available now at barnesandnoble.com and amazon.com.
