on 8/8/2006 Vaseline, glitter, unsweetened Kool-Aid, and sugar.

Mix all together in a bowl, heat it up, then put the bowl in fridge till cooled.

on 2/22/2006 If you want a nice, pink vanilla lipgloss you will need:

*Vaseline
*A Tupperware Container
*Leftover pink lipstick (no food coloring, it stains) *Vanilla Extract
*Sparkles (optional)

Mix these all together in the Tupperware container. Store in the refrigerator overnight, then in the morning put it in the microwave for 1 minute. Use as needed!

on 11/22/2005 If you suffer from dry sore lips, especially when the weather changes,
add peppermint, eucalyptus, or camphor oil to your lip balm.. This will tingle when you put it on, but also helps to slightly numb you lips so they won't hurt as much. And it also tastes good.
