I love that we had the choice of making 2 lip balms at a time or if we wanted we could do 6 at a time. Which we picked to do 2 at a time this way if we messed anything up then we had 4 more lip balms we could make perfectly. The process was very easy & the instructions were clear & easy to follow. They even provide pictures of each step you have to take in making the Lip Balm. All we had to do was measure the contents as directed, mind you since we were making just 2 at first we had to take the plastic spatula/spoon provided in the kit and divide the shea butter into 3 parts. We then poured 5ml of safflower oil, then 1/3 of the shea butter, 10 beads of bees wax into the measuring cup provided. Then we sat the measuring cup onto a microwave safe plate and turned the microwave on for 30 seconds. During that 30 seconds we picked our flavor which we decided to do one bubble gum and the other boysenberry. Once the microwave stopped we stirred it but noticed it was not completely melted. So we heated the mixture for an additional 15 seconds. Remember the mixture is hot so be very careful when handling it! Make sure you move fast enough so that it does not start to mold on you. As long as you move gracefully you will be just fine. I personally stirred it a few times before pouring as I know what hot stuff does to plastic materials. I had no issues with the plastic bubbling or bulging out or deforming. What we did was have our containers ready. Which included a jar & a tube! BUT we couldn't add 2 flavors to the mixture as we wanted 2 separate flavors so what we did was poured part of the mixture into the jar. As the jar has a nice sized opening in which will fit the spatula/spoon so we could stir the flavor. We squirted 7 drops of bubble gum & 6 drop of boysenberry. The reason we chose to do so many is because the instructions state to use 5-10 drops of flavoring. But we thought the bubble gum was light on the scent side so we added 7 drops & the boysenberry was stronger on the scent side so we added 1 less drop. Now both mixtures were in there desired containers we then closed them and put them in the fridge for 20 minutes. We waited 30 minutes because we got distracted. But when we did pull them out of the fridge to try them on we were both shocked. We just made lip balm, my Niece kept saying we can open our own store and make tons of different lip balms and lipsticks. And so many flavors we could make! She had me thinking about it for a minute there. LOL It was definitely a great experience I wish they had stuff like this when I was growing up! This DIY Lip Balm Kit by Kiss Naturals is so nifty. And I honestly did not expect it to be as much fun as it was. Nor did I think it would work to be honest! BUT I obviously was proved wrong because not only did we have a blast BUT it worked you really do make Lip Balm. Overall it was fun and it allowed for us to spend quality time together while learning!!
If your looking to buy this for a younger child be aware it does require you to use a microwave and your heating oil/wax & shea butter. If it accidentally gets spilled on the small child it could burn them. It may not be bad but there is a possibility! Just be careful and make sure your handling the hot mixture. Other than that its definitely a great experience & loads of fun!,
