Lip Balm
2 T beeswax
2 T shea butter
2 T Coconut Oil
30+ drops peppermint essential oil
- Melt the first three ingredients in a double boiler. Stir until melted.
- Remove from heat and add essential oil.
- Fill your lip balm tubes
Note: If you would like a thicker lip balm, then you can add more beeswax.
Hand Salve
1 c. infused oil (I use lavender infused oil)
2 T beeswax
4 T shea butter
30 drops essential oil (lavender is popular)
- Melt the first three ingredients in a double boiler until melted.
- Remove from heat and add the lavender essential oil.
- Quickly and carefully pour into a tin or mold that you are using.
- Store in a cool, dry place to prevent melting.
Note: For a harder hand salve you may add additional beeswax.
