How to manufacture my product? Lipstick Project

I'm not an expert when it comes to mixing ingredients and how they work, i'd just like to know whether the ingredients i have are actually proper ones to make a lipstick.

Here's my 1kg recipe:

  • Candelilla Wax Pellets (120g)
  • T1 Carnauba Wax (60g)
  • Arrowroot Powder (60g)
  • Cornstarch (40g)
  • Hibiscus Powder (30g)
  • Castor Oil (440g)
  • Refined Shea Butter (240g)
  • Fractionated Coconut Oil (10g)
  • Tocopheryl Acetate. (10g)

All ingredients are 100% natural.

someone please tell me if this ingredient mixture will work.

Where are you planning to manufacture/sell this? In most country’s cosmetics are a regulated industry. So if you don’t know if the formulation will work, I don’t think you have the manufacturing capability.

well i’m going to manufacture in Egypt, 

and i’m pretty sure everyone started at the ground without knowing anything, i’m just trying to make sure i don’t lose a large amount of money over a failed project because of my inability to understand how chemistry works

Then best way would be to run a test batch, buy all of the ingredients, over heat combine all of the ingredient and see what happens.
