11 DIY Berry Pink Lip Stains
When the temperatures are sky high, we tend to pass on heavy lipsticks in favor of lighter glosses and lip stains, and here at Brit + Co, we always love a good beauty DIY. Lip stains are the perfect DIY, because they usually only contain a couple of ingredients, and the colors can be completely customizable. Check out these 11 super easy lip stains, then start dreaming up your perfect lip color!
1. Shimmery Lip Gloss: For a super easy tinted gloss, just use Vaseline and a shimmery — preferably all-natural — blush powder. (via Free People)
2. Crayon Lipstick: Don’t freak out. Crayons are made mostly of paraffin (found in most lipsticks or lip balms) and non-toxic, food-grade pigments, making them perfect for mixing up a fun new lip color. (via Mom Dot)
3. Mini Lip Stains: Just by using some pretty simple ingredients, like organic beeswax, sweet almond oil, powdered pink blush for color and deep purple lipstick, you can make these adorable little lip stains and give them away as gifts! (via Joy The Baker)
