Crayon Lipstick!? How to make it & Is it safe???


I only just recently came across a video on 'How to make lipstick out of crayons' which led me onto other videos on the same subject and all of a sudden they are everywhere! ha ha. On Pinterest, Tumblr, Youtube. Where ever I've been hiding the past few months... I don't know how I hadn't noticed this earlier!
Anyhow, I decided that I wanted to give it a go, mostly just because it looks like fun and I love being crafty :)

I also decided that I wanted to delve a little deeper into the safety of wearing crayons on your lips/skin and luckily I got to pick a scientist's brain for his opinion... my brother!
Watch the video below to see how I went about making my Crayon Lipsticks, and what I found out about the safety risks.

Some of the 'ingredients' I used to make the lipsticks.
The palette of lipsticks that resulted after my experiment!


What do you guys think about these??
Would you wear them?

Chat soon,
Shiv.

  2. That green is the same shade as Illamasqua's Apocalips!

    I don't think I'd fancy wearing them on my skin but they could make an interesting set of materials for my graphics students...
