Ted Talk Coming Soon

So I know everyone knows what a ted talk is and if not you should go check them out. But right now im finalizing my project and getting ready for my ted talk . Ted talks arnt to be intense for the speaker its supposed to just flow.
The topics for ted talks can range from almost anything , i have yet to pick out a name for my project but its been a process. This weekend i will be making finial touchups to the product . Hopefully it sets correctly this time or im not going to have a product. But for all the people thats in high school and reads this , school is almost over the stress is almost gone. But ill have later post this week

Coming to the end

Its coming to the end of this project , i still have to do some of my chapsticks over but i learned through this project if you dont have the passion or motivation for something it wont get done. With me its probably other priorities and the fact im in 5 other class and the fact id have to order more stuff after i ordered what i thought would be it in order to get this lipstick to be what it needed to be. But in stead chapstick is usually not tinted and since that was my issue with the lipstick finding a way it could still be 100% and tinted i just swiched. I did make some chapstick but the amount of coconut was high and so it didnt solidify like i need it to . Coconut oil starts at a lower heat range to begin melting so it would be easy for you to accidentally leave it in the car and it be liquid gold. So i have to empty the tubes and start over . But either way if i use shea butter it has a higher melting temp but it can still melt so basically with natural chapsticks or lipsticks they cant be in heated areas due to the oil contents . Either tomorrow or later this upcoming week when i feel like redoing them ill have a mid week blog post to feel you in and also make up for the ones i havent done .

COMPLETE

So i recently just two days ago finish my product. It happens to be chap stick instead because i just couldn't find a way to tint the lipstick . I did a coconut and shea butter base and 5 have honey and the others have lemon tea and pure vanilla extract in them. As i was checking them this morning i realized that i used more coconut oil then shea butter so its greasy and if not used in small quantity it will bleed off some peoples lipstick. So i will either advertise it as a lip conditioner just for smoothing purposes not to like just wear out or to put on top of lipstick to bring a glossy finish. Im glad i'm done with my product but it has flaws so i'm not sure if i want to let people use it or not , but its totally safe to put on your skin its just very greasy . So if anyone wants to comment ideas that would be nice.
