I haven’t grabbed something out of a PR’s hand in such haste for a while – I absolutely love this neat little kit, £13.99, from Japonesque that lets you mix up a lipstick palette that is exactly to requirements.
Simply slice of a portion of your lipstick from your existing favourites, pop in the microwaveable bowl and cook for a nano second until your lipstick is pourable. Then tip into the palette and let it harden again. It’s just that simple. I know in theory you don’t really ‘need’ a kit to do this, but I love the idea that everything you need is in this set if you do want to try mixing things up a little – I’m definitely going to try it. It’s a brilliant idea for holidays or just having the a full set of choices in your handbag without having to fill space with lots of different lippies. Fab.
John Lewis carries a selection of Japonesque but not everything: I’m told distribution will be much more widespread in the near future.
Genius! I’m suprised this has taken so long – I usually make my own tinted lipbalms by mixing favourite lipsticks with vaseline and heating, with or without a touch of gloss. They will usually melt on a radiator too! Its really good when you find a lipstick too drying.
Wow im not surprised you jumped at the chance for this. Looks gorgeous and great idea xx
I love the look of this! It allows you to play with makeup instead of just buying it all the time
Great for using up the last bit of lipstick left in the bullet that you usually need a brush to get out!
This is such a good idea, but I would have to wait until my lipstick is at the end of it’s life as I couldn’t bring myself to massacre a brand new Chanel lipstick!

I’m not sure what to think about this. All these years I’ve been labouring under the impression that heat and cosmetics are not a good combo. I suppose it doesn’t matter with leftover bits tho.
OMG what a fantastic idea! I’m forever mixing up lipsticks on top of each other – this would make things a lot easier! Thank you for bringing it to my attention! X
I love this idea! Unfortunately i can’t find anywhere to buy this kit online
Now available at HQhair if you’re still looking
Love this idea. If you teamed this lip stick palette and the Front Cover to go palettes, you are pretty much sorted for your holidays! x
