If you love a natural glow and want soft, rosy lips without chemicals, beetroot is your best friend! Rich in antioxidants and natural pigments, fresh beet juice can add a lovely pink tint to your lips—while nourishing them at the same time.
Here’s how you can make your own homemade beetroot lip balm using simple, skin-friendly ingredients.
🌿 Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon fresh beetroot juice (strained well)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or shea butter
- 1 teaspoon beeswax (grated or pellets)
- (Optional) 1–2 drops of vitamin E oil for extra nourishment
🥄 Instructions
- Extract the Beet Juice:
Peel and grate a small piece of beetroot. Press it through a fine sieve or cheesecloth to extract the juice. Use only a teaspoon. - Melt the Base:
In a small bowl or double boiler, gently melt the coconut oil and beeswax together. Stir until fully combined. - Add Color:
Remove from heat and stir in the fresh beet juice. Mix well until the color is evenly blended. (You can also add vitamin E oil here.) - Pour & Set:
Quickly pour the mixture into a small container or lip balm tin. Let it cool at room temperature until it solidifies. - Store:
Keep it in a cool, dry place. Use within 1–2 weeks, since fresh juice is perishable.
💡 Tips
- For a deeper tint, add a few extra drops of beet juice.
- Use clean hands or a lip brush when applying.
- Always do a patch test if you have sensitive skin.
