Lip Balm, Beeswax
Apiary · Bees · Quick & Easy
Ingredients
- 190 grams beeswax
- 90 grams cocoa butter
- 175 grams sunflower oil about 1 cup
- 30 drops vitamin E oil
- 10 drops Rosemary essential oil
- 40 drops peppermint oil
- 5 drop lanolin
Directions
- Fill a medium sauce pan with water, place a large glass bowl on top, then bring the water to a gentle boil. Alternatively, you can use a double boiler if you have one. Add the beeswax and cocoa butter to the glass bowl. The steam from the boiling water will melt the wax and cocoa butter. It should take about 10 to 15 minutes for the wax to melt.
- Once melted, add the rest of the ingredients and whisk together until well combined.
- Follow the instructions on your lip balm kit (if using) to fill the tubes, or fill tubes or tins with a tincture dropper. Allow the beeswax lip balm to cool completely in the tubes before moving. Enjoy!
