Beet Lip Gloss via Pure2Spa
10 minutes; makes 1/2 ounce
What You Need:
(local and organic whenever possible)
1 beet (light-colored red beets yield a red shade; darker ones get you a merlot color)
3 drops olive oil
2 Tbsp powdered sugar
1 capsule of vitamin E oil
Repurposed lip gloss container or pillbox
Directions:
1. Remove beet from stem, wash, and chop into 1-inch pieces.
2. Place chopped beet in microwave-safe container and heat on high for 1 minute until it releases juice.
3. Pour beet juice and the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl and mix thoroughly (add sugar by the teaspoon until it reaches your desired thickness).
4. Empty the finished blend into a small jar, preferably a repurposed lip gloss container. Let the mixture sit for 2-3 hours to thicken, then apply as you like. It'll keep for 6-8 months.
