11/2 tablespoons beeswax
1 tablespoon cocoa butter
1 tablespoon unrefined virgin coconut oil
1 tablespoon sweet almond oil
4 drops vitamin E oil
10 drops vanilla oil
5 drops lavender essential oil
Lip balm is a product most of us can’t (and shouldn’t) do without. Who would have thought that you could make the most hydrating and healthiest lip balm in your own home? This recipe has a long shelf life and can make a beautiful gift.
In a double boiler, melt beeswax, cocoa butter and coconut oil. Once melted, remove ingredients from heat and stir in the remaining oils. Pour the liquid into your desired lip balm packaging (I recommend a small glass jar or stainless steel tin) and let cool for a half hour before putting the lid on the container.
