Either use a sticker maker or glue the design to the containers.

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....

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?

how much coco and how much vaseline do you use?

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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!

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. Happy

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.
