finally i put it in a lipstick container and its great! the ones that were put in a small container with lid they're a bit hard to apply with finger. note to myself: gotta order A LOT of lipstick containers cause im gonna make this recipe for ALL of my friends to try!

i tried this recipe and i can say its really good and it smells great, the only thing that i would alter is the hardness, i think it becomes too thick and hard after setting, which makes it a bit difficult to apply. maybe we should put more oil or something else? ty!
