OK...Now im going to share bout " HOW TO MAKE A OWN LIPSTICK from Natural/Organic Vegetable"
First thing is...of corse its very comfortable and save for our lips,a organic / natural ingredients will care your lips skin,also give you a minimalis/natural color touch
For many women, applying a dash of lipstick or lip gloss is as much a part of the morning routine as pouring milk on their cornflakes and checking the weather. 81% of British women wear lippie every day and, according to the Women's Environmental Network, each of them will consume around 2lbs of the stuff over their lifetime.
Of course, wearing lipstick is hardly a modern phenomenon: Babylonian beauties were puckering up in ancient Mesopotamia 5000 years ago. Back then, lipstick could be rather hazardous. The ancient Egyptians created theirs using a mixture of a plant dye called Fucus-Algin, a dash of iodine and some bromine mannite. It produced a lovely red colour, but was unfortunately quite toxic, and often led to serious illness.
Other popular ingredients included a red dye made from crushed cochineal beetles, and fish scales - added for their pearlescent effect. Surprisingly, both of these are still used in commercial lipsticks and lip glosses today. And though bromine mannite isn't on the ingredients list any more, modern products may still contain substances we'd rather avoid. A recent study by Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, an American pressure group, raised concerns about the amount of lead found in one third of red lipsticks tested. Castor oil, used as a base ingredient in many lipsticks, can cause abdominal cramping and diarrhea if too much is ingested.
So, what are the options if you want to avoid shop-bought lippies and make your own versions instead? You need a few basic components - waxes and oils for substance and shine, emollients for moisture and softness, colours, flavours (if you like), and some packaging. You can use a variety of different ingredients, and finding the ones that work best for you could take some experimenting.
Popular ingredients in homemade lipsticks and glosses include beeswax, petroleum jelly (though you may wish avoid this as it's a byproduct of crude oil production), cocoa butter, vegetable glycerin, almond oil, coconut oil, Vitamin E oil, honey and aloe vera gel. You can add flavour by raiding the kitchen for chocolate, lemon or lime juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, or whatever takes your fancy.
The easiest alternatives to commercial dyes are natural fruits and roots, used either fresh or in powdered form.Beetroot powder can be bought from spice suppliers, while freeze-dried powdered cranberries are readily available from health food shops. Or you could cheat just a tiny bit by using the leftovers from favourite lipsticks that have almost run out. If you mix a few different ones together, you can create a new, totally individual shade! Finally, you can get dispensers and jarsfor your homespun creations from natural skin care companies like Aromantic.
If you don't want the hassle of sourcing all the ingredients separately, you could treat yourself to an all-in-one kit. For around £15 you get all the oils, butters, waxes, colours and shimmer (from the mineral mica, not fishscales!) you need, as well as pots and tubes for storing the finished product and full instructions.

Stir well and gently mash the berries. Let the mixture stand for at least 5 minutes. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove all the pieces of cranberry. Stir and allow to cool completely. When cool, spoon into a clean container.
