Brilliant idea, and a brilliant website. Really love the design!

11 Jul 22:06

do you use coco extract?

12 Jul 02:33

Are you just doing this by feel/taste or do you use X amount of this and Y amount of that?

12 Jul 02:33

is vaseline dangerous if swallowed?

12 Jul 04:22

I'm pretty sure Vaseline isn't dangerous. Petroleum jelly is usually an ingrediant good moisturizing lip balms... I think it is also sometimes used for burns.

12 Jul 13:16

Petrolium jelly is drying to the body, consider beeswax with a touch of almond oil, add what ever flavour you care to, mint, cocoa, whatever. Just another possibility and healthier for your skin. :)

13 Jul 23:32

Yum! I just made some of this. I used one of those plastic containers you get chinese in to melt the vaseline so I could throw it away after!

16 Jul 22:45

I have instant cappuchino mix... it's similar to hot cocoa mix... I think I'll try it with that!

16 Jul 22:45

Kris: Vaseline should never be used for burns. Post trauma burn treatment should be with specialist creams, many of which actually contain Silver Oxide! No grease or oil should ever be used.

21 Jul 15:18

This sounds great. Has anyone road tested this? Namely, what color are your lips when you put this on?

17 Aug 17:19

You could also try coconut oil mixed with beeswax. That way you could get away from the petr chemicals.

19 Aug 00:09

Great Idea!!!

I used some Betty Boop Pink Hot Chocolate mix for it instead of the conventional chocolate and it turned out to be pretty cool. If you want to know what color it will make your lips just put some powder on your wet lips and it gives you a pretty good idea.

21 Aug 13:15

Where did you get those cute containers?

22 Aug 02:21

I used little beer botle caps and they work realy well!

23 Aug 00:02

very cute, I can almost smell the cocoa from here! And it's a great use for old lip gloss containers, too...

27 Aug 15:21

i wonder if you could substitute coconut oil for the petroleum jelly?

16 Sep 03:03

By "coco", do you mean cocoa powder - the pure kind used for baking - or instant chocolate drink powder or something else entirely?

17 Sep 18:49

this is so simple and easy.. this could make great little christmas presents!

17 Sep 18:49

You definitely shouldn't use vaseline for burns.
I believe vaseline holds in heat, which would be highlt uncomfortable.

20 Sep 01:27

how much coco and how much vaseline do you use?

thnks.

30 Sep 04:18

about a tablespoon of coco..

30 Sep 23:20

Great idea! Now try it with coconut oil! Liquifies when warm but tastes great and is much better for you and the planet.

24 Oct 21:54

Where did you find those adorable containers? What a great little project!

03 Nov 18:36

this stuff is great , its yummy and it feels gr8

08 Nov 11:05

I'll have to try the chocolate lip balms with coco. I normally use grated chocolate. Ohhh and where do people get their tubs from. xxx

08 Dec 18:03

Hii Great Idea =]
Where Do You Get The Containers To Put It In?

28 Dec 05:39

Try using those little mini jam containers that you might get at a hotel or restaurant!!!!!!!

03 Jan 03:18

try ebay, i just had a quick look and they have some containers on there :) try lip balm.....pots, tubs, containers etc. hope that helps.

16 Jan 13:03

It would be great if you could find a way to make this without using petroleum products. :-(

21 Feb 15:26

HEY!! THATS REAL NEAT!!!

28 Feb 14:36

fab website... i run a ranger unit (think girl guides!) and this should be really helpful! thanks! xxx

03 Mar 14:12

Is there any way that i could substitute the cocoa with an essence? wouldn't it be a too runny and not set properly?

25 Mar 14:34

Wow, that's so cool and it's so easy to gather the ingredients. By the way, i luv your space, please continue to add more DIY recipes! Actually...i think i'll add this website into my Bookmarks.
Luv ya, and good luck on your space!

23 Apr 13:22

omg THIS IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

28 Apr 13:47

I got my containers from a cosmetics container supply company. Just ask for some samples of their products and they'll send you some for free. ;)

07 May 01:30

you would hafta have sugar in ur cocoa powder though, right? I mean, it would taste strange with just cocoa...

07 May 02:06

so cool my friends loved it

08 May 17:59

This is really cool I like it.

08 May 19:08

were could you buy petorleum jelly

23 May 14:35

this is awsome

27 Jun 23:16

this is a great idea, i love it, im going to try it, for me and my friends, thanxx!!!!!!

20 Sep 15:08

OMG coconut oil was awesome! It gives it a realy cool scent. I used a dash of splenda (sweetener) with the coco powder. It came out great too

17 Oct 19:47

You can get those little containers at the dollar store in the bead or craft section.

13 Nov 01:08

I lurvve this!!! I would like to ask you can you use the coco powder that you buy in packets for just add water hot chocolate?

23 Nov 21:42

I just made some and am waiting for it to set. I had a thought while I was using my belgian chocolate and mint coco powder, could you also use those nesquik milkshake powders to get a strawberry or banana flavour? It would be yummy!

01 Dec 06:09

I just made some of these and they are so yummers! I had been wanting to make them for a really long time now but couln't find small containers. I found some today and now I have my own lipgloss and some to give at Christmas!

02 Dec 15:57

I love this! I used a fizzy drink mix so it always tingles when you aply it! mmmm.......

18 Dec 03:14

sweet...i always wanted to make mayo flavoured lip balm

jk

keep up the greatness

23 Dec 14:31

Mmm, it smells so good :)
Thanks so much! ^o^

30 Dec 22:50

I think this recipe would be even better if you added just a little bit of sugar to the mix! Also, it's actually pretty easy to find some empty clear lip balm tubes, is the balm of a thick enough consistancy to maintain a "stick" shape if it's dialed out of a lip balm tube?

27 Jan 23:28

if vaseline was dangerous to swallow they wouldnt sell it in special little tins for people to use as lipbalms now would they?

I cant wait to make some, i just have to get some pots....

18 Mar 15:36

I love it! Where do you get the jars for the stuff?? I've always wanted to know.

04 May 10:57

sweet! I'd like to try that some time. If I add sugar would it taste sweet?

02 Jun 16:30

I Love this one!

17 Jul 20:10

OHMIGOSH!!! I just made it and its setting now!! I can't wait!!! My only concern is..........I think I might end up eating it instead of using it on my lips because it just smells SOOOOOOO good!! lol Thanx for the project!!!

05 Aug 08:55

I <3 it!! It is so chocolaty! The only thing is that the vaseline is really hard to get out of the bowl but I managed.

20 Aug 19:05

THAT is sooo cool!!!!!! Im gonna give sum to ma girl friends:D

21 Aug 21:54

love it

25 Aug 11:21

I made it but put wayyyy too much coco. Make a good eyeshadow though! :P

25 Aug 19:57

20 Oct 21:36

21 Oct 11:00
