- You can get creative with the mica powders until you find a color combination that works for you. Start with just a pinch of red or pink mica powder and add small amounts of different colors until you reach your desired shade.
- If you reuse an old lip balm container, be sure that it is fully unscrewed before pouring the lip balm mixture in.
- Always do a patch test before using a new product to ensure you don’t have an adverse reaction.
