4-in-1 Rose Cream Makeup Stick Ingredients
You will need the following ingredients to make this rose scented cream makeup stick:
- .25 oz. candelilla wax
- .75 oz. babassu oil
- .25 oz. fractionated coconut oil
- .25 oz. Bulgarian rose floral wax
- .15 oz. (eye + lip safe) coral mica
- .15 oz. (eye + lip safe) copper sparkle mica
How to Make a Cream Makeup Stick
You will need a digital scale to weigh all of the ingredients for this plant based makeup recipe without recipe. Here’s how to make this cream makeup stick:
- Begin by weighing out the candelilla wax and babassu oil into a small glass Pyrex measuring cup or similar. Heat in the microwave at 40% power until melted. Alternately you may also use a double boiler. Take care removing your melted ingredients from the microwave as the glass will be hot. I recommend using a towel or pot holder when handling.
- Next, weigh out the fractionated coconut oil and rose wax. (The rose wax gives this plant based makeup recipe a beautiful light rose fragrance!) Mix these ingredients into the melted candelilla wax and babassu oil until thoroughly combined and the rose wax has melted.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly then weigh out and add the mica powders. Mix well so the mica is fully incorporated into the makeup base.
- Now slowly and carefully pour your rose scented 4-in-1 beauty stick into a container or containers of your choice. Allow to cool, then label as desired for personal use.
Tip: Be careful not to pour your 4-in-1 cosmetic stick too hot. Doing so will result in a small hole down the center of the product as it cools. Don’t worry if this happens to you, however. Practice makes perfect. It does take a little patience though.
Package the Plant Based Makeup + Free Printable
Once you’ve mixed the ingredients for the cream makeup stick, you are ready to package your plant based makeup. I used the 1.5 oz. brown paperboard push up tubes from SKS Bottle & Packaging to package my homemade cosmetics.
Once your plant based makeup sticks have cooled, simply cap and label them as desired. You download my free PDF printable labels for my rose all over cream makeup sticks here. (These labels are free for personal use only.)
How to Use Cream Makeup Sticks
To use your cream makeup sticks, simply apply to eyelids, cheeks, lips or body as desired and gently massage into skin. You can further blend the color with a makeup sponge if desired.
Examples of Plant Based Makeup Color on Skin
Here is a picture of my rose plant based makeup on fair skin. The homemade cosmetic stick was applied then rubbed into skin to create blush tones.
Here is another example of my homemade cosmetics in use as a bronzer. Here it is applied onto a medium skin tone with a heavier application.

Can I Sell Plant Based Makeup?
Can I sell plant based makeup? Yes, you can sell the homemade cosmetics you make using my plant based makeup recipes.
If you’d like to create your own homemade plant based makeup products to sell, you will need to following FDA guidelines for labeling and permissible ingredients. You should be aware that glitter, mica-based pearlescent pigments, and other composite pigments used in cosmetics are NOT FDA approved for cosmetics at this time. The FDA however is currently exercising discretionary enforcement of these color additives while they are in discussion over regulatory status and safety. You can find further discussion on this at Marie Gale’s blog here.
For help labeling your plant based makeup products, I recommend the book, Soap and Cosmetic Labeling: How to Follow the Rules and Regs Explained in Plain English, by Marie Gale.

Rose floral wax is a super soft wax. I don’t know what a close substitute would be. It’s softer than lanolin. Beeswax would be much too hard. You’d have to play around with it and the result would be an entirely different end product.
