In the spirit of doing pretty much everything myself, regardless of added difficulty to my life, I also make my own homemade lip gloss (though it really isn&#;t difficult at all). I&#;m well aware that you can purchase lip gloss made for pretty much any price you care to name, from a 99¢ Lip Smackers that smells like soda pop and candy, to north of the $50 mark with stuff that probably isn&#;t much different from the $5 stuff. Not that I&#;d know anything about $50 lip gloss other than what the packaging looks like.
This is my own recipe, and I&#;m pretty pleased with it. Unlike many glosses that tend to vampire the moisture out of your lips, this one provides a great dose of moisture and shine. You can adjust the viscosity of the gloss by tweaking the amount of beeswax by a gram or two, but I&#;d recommend making at least one batch of this recipe before messing with anything.

Did you know that makeup sales grew faster than any other consumer good category over the last year? In makeup sales grew faster than skin & hair care products combined. Over 22% year over year growth!
Multi-functional beauty products like plumping lip gloss and tinted lip balm showed the highest growth over the year at 44%. That's one impressive stat! The success was attributed to their convenience and perceived value over traditional makeup products.
So what does this mean for makers? Well, lip gloss is inexpensive to create and has a relatively low price point for the consumer. Popular beauty brands such as Tower 28, Fenty, and Lawless have capitalized on this craze and are earning praise from customers and industry leaders alike.
Whether you want to start a lip gloss business or add lip gloss to your existing product line, Makesy&#;s ingredients, supplies, and recipe guides make it affordable and easy!
Here's a quick break down of your startup costs. With an 8oz lip gloss base you can make 25 units of lip gloss (8ml per unit). The base, color, and packaging will cost you around $90 (~ $3.60/unit).

With popular brands selling for between $24-$40 each, we suggest you start selling your lip gloss for around $16 each. You could price yours higher or lower depending on your target market but we've seen small businesses have success pricing their products slightly under larger brands.
This means your initial investment could gross $400 in total sales (>400% ROI).
That&#;s not all! You can add an all-natural lip plumping blend, extra fine mica and flavor to your lip gloss line. The materials would cost less than an additional $20 ($110 total; <$4.60/unit) which would still net more than a 350% ROI!
