You can play with your own choices of ingredients and create different types of lip balms.
As colourants, you can use any plant-based organic powders or naturals colours.
The best part about lip balms is that they can last for a long time without any preservatives or at any room temperature as none of the ingredients used in lip balms have water in it.
Did I say they are long-lasting?
My lip balms last for almost 6 to 8 months.
