How to Make Your Lipstick:
Step 1: Remove the cap and base of your empty lipstick case.
Step 2: Twist the mechanism to extend the transparent part.
Step 3: Secure this part in the mold. Place on a flat surface.
Step 4: Pour the lipstick mixture into the mechanism, avoiding overflow.
Step 5: Freeze for 15 minutes. Unmold carefully.
Step 6: Twist the mechanism to retract the lipstick, then reattach the base and cap.
Step 7: If the lipstick sticks, you may have poured too much. Adjust as needed!
