Lip gloss from old eyeshadow

Cool body mist

  1. Pour your favorite body lotion to a spray bottle. Fill it to about quarter of the way.

  • You can also use strawberry or Kool-Aid as blush.
  • You can also use vanilla hot chocolate for your face.
  • You can also use the cocoa mix for your face, and vanilla for your eyes, or vice versa.
