I fell in love with this color, and I want to recreate it. Has anyone tried making lipstick out of crayons? How did it work? Did you like it? What colors should I use that will get me close to this color? Thanks!

I have tried it. It worked well but you have to work fast. I loved it although if you make it wrong it could end up with little balls of lipstick. This color looks like an orange mixed with either purple or brown or both. Maybe a pink and red too, I hope. 😬

Direct from the Crayola website:

"Is it safe to use Crayola Crayons to make lipstick, eyeliner and other makeup?

As the manufacturer of children's products, safety is our top priority at Crayola.
Although our products are nontoxic, we do not recommend using them to make eyeliner, lipstick or other makeup, and strongly discourage their use in this manner. The products were never intended to be used on the skin or face in this manner.

Makeup goes through specific and rigorous testing because it is intended to be used on the skin. Because they were never meant to be used as makeup, our colored pencils or crayons have not been tested in the same way and should not be used as a cosmetic. They are not designed, tested or approved for this purpose."

If you really want to get into making your own makeup www.tkbtrading.com has inexpensive ingredients as well as recipes to get you started.

Also, the NYX Matte Lipstick in 'sierra' is extremely close to that shade. $6
