So You Want to Make Lip Balm??? I know I do...

I LOVE lip balm and chap stick. I use to always use it until I started buying a TON from Etsians! I do not think I want to make it to sell because I have enough things as it is, but I sure want to try it!

Here are some awesome links to learn how to make your own lip balm!

SO COOL STUFF!

In other Etsy news and finds.... I bought some amazing lip balm today from Etsian KreatedbyKarina. She needs to pay some medical bills for her daughter ($600 worth ASAP) and I have always loved her shop, so I figured now would be an awesome time to purchase from her. It is always fun to help out a fellow Etsian!!!

Here is what I bought from her. They sound very yummy!

Pina Colada Lip Balm

Vanilla Frosting Lip Balm

She even has a Lip Balm of the Month Club for $24.00! Who couldn't use that. I know I am always losing mine, so at least I would have another next month!

She is also offering FREE SHIPPING till the 20th because of the YART SALE going on around Etsy. Make sure you enter "YART" in the message to seller when purchasing from her.

Pictured below is her Rose Petal Soap. How unique!

Please take the time to support her and her cause if possible!
