Crayon Lipstick

You can always add choice oils like sunflower, or coconut oil to add a bit of moisturizing property to it. And have fun trying different colors, you can even mix 2-3 different colors to create a new shade altogether.
DIY body glitter
As fancy as that sounds. It’s actually super simple. Just mix in some loose glitter (ones sold for makeup) and mix it in with your moisturizer or aloe Vera gel. Apply it on for a glittery effect on your arms and collar bones.
Eyeshadow
All you need is some Coconut Oil, beeswax, powder eyeshadow, and an empty container. This recipe can make your shadow last longer and you can mix and match it. Take a glass container, and add a scoop of coconut oil, some beeswax, and eyeshadow powder. Heat this for 30 seconds in a microwave. Take it out, mix it a little, and heat it for 30 seconds again. Pour this mix into the empty container, and cool down in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
Mascara
Create a double boiler and add the following – 1 tsp coconut oil, 1 tsp Shea butter, 1 1/2 tsp beeswax, and 2 tsp jojoba oil. Bring it off the flame once it is melted and add 2 capsules of activated charcoal and 2 drops of Vitamin E oil. Put it inside a plastic zip-lock bag to cool down, and then pour it into an empty mascara tube.
DIY makeup removers
Take a long jar and fill it up with cotton pads. Add coconut oil and castile soap (melted) over the pads. Add some water, just enough to wet the pads. Place the lid and shake it, to even it out. Voila! You have your own makeup wipes.
Blushes
