DIY: Crayon melting

So this time I finally caved in and decided to give this a shot! 

Things needed : 

69 crayon box. (Any brand)
A canvas 
Glue gun with glue sticks 
Blow dryer!

Now the first step is to literally just align the colours above the canvas in the order you want them. 

 
And also draw in pencil if you want any drawing, I'm a bad bad drawer! So I just traced it out and cut out a stencil in the same pattern and outlined it onto the canvas :D

Step 2: 
HEAT THAT GLUE GUN!

Start to glue each glue stick into the canvas carefully and properly! This step took me the longest but honestly once you perfect it there's no need to ever go back and fix any loose ones.. 


A little tip: I only glued half the crayon(length wise) to the canvas and left the upper half hanging to the air .. I did this to make my canvas look longer and so that the crayons didn't take up a big portion.




Step 3:

LET THE FUN BEGIN

before commencing with this step I suggest you leave the canvas for a bit in the upright position to make sure all the crayons are sturdy enough.

now start !! OPEN YOUR BLOWDRYER to maximum heat and power and start to melt . Honestly it's easier done than said I promise! 


STEP 4:

Paint your drawing black! You can paint it before but I just did after idk why.


AND YOU'RE DONE. NOW HANG IT AND ENJOY.

A Revlon Lip Butter Review



Well i've finally decided to review those babies.
let me just say that they were worth the 6 months wait for them to be launched in my area.

those lip butters come in many many colours. and with every season , new colours are coming out.

honestly as a person who doesn't like wearing lipstick. i thought they were a great alternative!

other than the fact that they really do moisturize your lips, they give a really nice light natural looking colour to your lips that if darkened can really be pulled off as a lipstick.

however; for me i rather keep it as 1 coat because as i said, im not a lipstick fan.

the packaging is ultra cute! and let me not even start with the names.. like "strawberry shortcake"... YUM!

speaking of YUM. they dont quite have a taste or smell to them which i guess is somewhat is a con if you are the type who likes eating your balm?

i wouldn't fully consider those a lip balm though, so for those , who really just want a balm, the revlon lip butters are certainly not going to give you that , as they slightly more or less do have a colour.

a big con however; would be the fact that you have to re-apply them every 2-3hours as they are not long lasting at all! but on the plus , you really can apply them with no mirror , because they're very easy.

in the end i would definitely recommend buying those, although the prices could be cheaper ..

all this being said. revlon, you have a satisfied customer.




ps: i only have 3 because they are always sold out!
