You Need:

Colored Lipstick or Cream Blush
Petroleum Jelly (Vaseline works well)
Scooping Stick or Spatula
Small Containers
Vanilla Essence or Flavor
Ziploc Bags

Instructions

Take your favorite shade of lip stick and cut a small piece of it. In case you don’t want to damage your lipstick, use a creamy blush for a light tint. Take a clean spatula or a scoop and take out some petroleum jelly in it.
Get a small Ziploc bag and put in the petroleum jelly and the small piece of lipstick or cream blush in it. If you want, you can put in a tiny pinch of eye-glitter too, for an extra sparkle. Add 3-4 drops of Vanilla essence in it for the flavor and smell.
Seal the Ziploc pouch and let out the air from it. Now, gently squish the jelly and the color together and blend nicely. The color and jelly should be mixed nicely to form an even and uniform shade.
Now, take scissors and make a tiny incision at one corner of the Ziploc pouch. Squeeze out the gloss from the bag into a small container and keep it in the fridge if the outside temperature is too warm. Your homemade lip gloss is ready for use!
