Note: You can remove the colour to make a colourless lip balm.
You can also add more rouge red for a greater depth of colour. Though please note that this is only intended to be a subtle tint, adding too much colour can cause the final product colour to bleed on the lips as it does not contain the stabilising ingredients of a lipstick. Please see our LIPSTICK RECIPE if you're wanting to make a lipstick with much more pigment.
