• Homemade Kool-Aid Lip Gloss

  

  My daughters and I led a small group back in September for girls (ages 4 to 10).  Our first lesson was about honesty.  We used the scripture,

  "The Lord detests lying lips but delights in those who are truthful."  (Proverbs 12:22)

  We made "Honest Lips" gloss using Kool-Aid and Vaseline.  It was so easy and the girls loved creating different colors and flavors.  We even used cocoa to make some chocolate gloss.

  Here's the basic recipe we used:

  Kool-Aid (various flavors/colors)

  Vaseline

  Sandwich baggies

  Lip Gloss Containers (can buy them at the craft store or use empty altoid tins)

  Put a scoop of Vaseline in a sandwich bag.  Add the desired amount of Kool-Aid.  More Kool-Aid = more flavor/color.  Zip bag.  Start squishing.  Squish until well mixed.  Once well mixed, begin working lip gloss down the bag into one of the bottom corners.  Snip tip of bag corner with scissors and pipe lip gloss into container (just like decorating a cake). 

  Pucker up for some lip-smacking fun!  Honest lips only, please.
