Edible Beauty Products

The TV was randomly on the live well network channel which I didn't even know existed and saw some really cool ideas. I'm not a fan of make up and wear a lipstick for a special occasion. I also don't believe in spending tons of money on beauty products because I can't understand what 99% of the ingredients are and don't trust the product. What's great about these natural beauty products below is that they can be composed with items found in the grocery store or in your pantry and are so safe, they're edible!

  1. This looks awesome! I made my own lip gloss out of beeswax and mineral oil and it is my favorite! Anyhoo, new follower from May Blog Hop :) Heather M, www.RockStew.com
