balmy nights

did i tell you? last saturday night us girls got together finally. all five of us! :) anyway, so i had the idea of making lip balm but didn't get to it all winter break so we decided to that night. we must've went to like 10 stores total just looking for the ingredients. eesh. but anyway, all we really got correct was the wax (we used soy wax, we're so trendy). we couldn't find coco butter or sunflower oil anywhere. it was really annoying. but anyway, we used european butter and peanut oil. lol. we made several batches and finally settled on a mixture we all liked. altho i gotta say, i still think it's too waxy. then we proceeded to mix and match colors and scents. yay for orange bread flavored lip blam! hehe. btw? i love my sparkly pink peppermint mix. night was funny cause i took the mixing really seriously. measuring and time and mixing... ('submitting to step the nazi's ways' quoth chang) but my dad is a chemist so give me a break! i think only angel and i had the most fun. we're planning to do it again some time. yay for lip balm! (sorry no pictures!)
